About this event


The Importance of Maintaining Inner Stability
in External Uncertainty

A Hybrid Weekend Retreat with Tuere Sala

When external conditions begin to fluctuate and spin at a fast pace, we need to know how to ground and stabilize ourselves internally. This is what the four foundations of mindfulness are pointing towards. Knowing how to establish mindfulness is an empowerment. It creates agency in oneself and allows us to move through challenging situations with strength and integrity.
