Breathwave with Christina Niven

/in /by

Breathwave conscious connected breathing is a gentle form of breathwork that supports nervous system regulation, emotional integration and inner connection. It honours the sacred within each one of us … the beauty, the light, the magnificent while also holding and integrating the shadow, the broken, the exiled in order to come to wholeness. The breath invites you into presence and to remember who you truly are in the essence of your Being.

Group Breathwave sessions are facilitated by senior Breathwave facilitator and trainer Christina Niven.
​
In a group journey, Christina will gently guide you into the breathwave, offer hands-on facilitation (with consent) and support you in staying present with and in your experience. Breathing is done in a relaxed way while lying down with the accompaniment of music and presence.

Triratna Vancouver DAY RETREAT

/in /by

The Journey of Practice from Fixed Self to Personal Freedom

You are invited to attend a day retreat exploring issues around personal transformation through loosening our ideas of personality and softening our ego, with its fixed views and attachments. This opens a wider, freer reality that evolves parallel to our evolution from practicing the Dharma life.

Following periods of sitting practice and talks from those among us training for ordination, there will be opportunities to discuss challenges and achievements we’ve seen come and go, beginning with our ego defences in our earlier years to a more open awareness of how it’s possible to be in the world, now that we’ve engaged the Dharma.

The retreat will start at 9:00 and finish by 4:30.

BYO Lunch: Lunch will be from Noon to 1:00.

We will meet at Bridge and Enrich, 718  E. 20th, the corner of Fraser and 20th. 

The suggested fee for the day is $25.00 paid on the day in person. Virtual participation is an option with a Pay Pal contribution on the Triratna Vancouver website.

There is ample street parking on street in the neighbourhood. A Zoom link will be provided to registrants. You can bring your own, but mats and cushions will be provided.

 

Please register by emailing Larry at [email protected].

If you are attending a Day Retreat or Meditation with us for the first time, we will be glad to provide you with an orientation.

Knowing in advance that you are coming helps us plan the day. Thank you.
