“Thanks to the simplicity of Russell's techniques and the warm, supportive environment he created, I discovered a new sense of openness and connection to myself." 

Tanya R. Writer, Toronto, Ontario

 

"I have been meditating for over 7 years now and never realized until now that I had been using meditation as a medication to avoid myself. Russell's technique that he taught was the piece that I had been missing for many years. I now have a method to accept, integrate and love those parts of myself that I had been pushing away. I feel more at peace with myself than I have ever been before"

—Trevor Williams, Landscaper, Midland, Ontario

True Being – A Meditation Retreat

Bring in the New year differently this year!

 

Deeply Connect to the Relaxed Prescence of your Authentic Self and Bring Inner Calmness into Your Daily Life

buddha-face-flowerThe human body was never designed to cope with the high-pressure demands of life in the 21st century and as a result our life-fulfillment has become compromised by the constant tension we are under. When this tension is unabated it can have serious consequences'.

It is estimated that 80% of the degenerative diseases such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes and others that doctors treat are stress-related. It is also a contributing factor to depression, addiction, anxiety, low job performance, and marital problems.

In this 2-day retreat you will experience how the “deep rest” that meditation gives is a antidote to this constant stress. You will understand how stress manifests in the body and learn how to access at will, the “relaxation response” like a “re-set button” that re-establishes the equilibrium of physical relaxation, emotional calm, and mental alertness.

Photo-2 for-Retreat-True-Being-ist1-4373693-beautiful-yellow-waterlilyYou will learn the basic essential techniques of meditation distilled from ancient practices and placed in a western context without the dogma or jargon of religious belief.

Unlike some methods, that instruct you to disassociate from the mind with negative consequences, you will learn a body-centered strategy of integrating and clearing persistent thought and emotions.

By the end of the retreat you will have acquired a daily practice of meditation that will free you from the constant disabling chatter of the mind and help you access inner serenity, happiness and joy.

"Meditation frees individuals from the tenacious preoccupation with the past and future and allows them to fully experience life's precious moments"
Daeja Napier, founder of the Insight Meditation Center, Boston
