a bunch of buddhist!

We've said fairwell to Kalsang and Changchup...the monk and nun who were leading this weekends amazing retreat.

I have learned so much, feel so open and more able to deal with what is going on in my life right now! There is always so much to take in and digest after such an intense time. We did a lot of sitting meditation, walking meditation around the pond, which was so wonderful, and listened to an absolutely brilliant presentation by Ani Pema Chodron. She is so down to earth and gives such wise advise. Also, she is so funny, i decided she could be the first Buddhist Stand up comic....she just slays me!!!

I know it looks like Jean is strangling Zoe...but it was a brief moment....she's just fine. Changchup doesn't have Sherlock in a head lock....it just looks pretty bad eh!

Words are few, but feelings of gratitude are enormous!
