Calm Living Meditation Retreat

This August, Michael Daly of Being Yoga presents a 4 day meditation retreat at the beautiful Chenrezig Buddhist Institute on the Sunshine Coast hinterland.  Michael has been a dedicated meditation practitioner and teacher for nearly 20 years.  He has studied under numerous teachers in the yogic and buddhist tradition around the world as well as being a student of Ken Wilber's modern integral movement. 

He has a deep knowledge of pscyhology, kinesiology and brain science along with esoteric teachings and ancient traditions.  His teachings are designed to honour the vast legacy of meditation teachings whilst also recognising the need to adapt them to modern times. 

Not everyone has 3 hours a day to meditate.  In the Calm Living programme, 4 key practices are taught over the retreat that are designed to help you create a potent shift in your body and mind in the shortest time possible.  The format of the retreat will be as follows:
