Blessing Our Aliveness – Play, Rest and Practice in Beloved Community

with Kaira Jewel Lingo

Join Buddhist teacher Kaira Jewel Lingo for a daylong retreat about honoring the miracle of being alive. Through mindfulness, play, and rest, we will deepen our connection to ourselves, each other, and the present moment.

In our hyper-connected, fast-paced world, we can forget how to rest and just be. When we slow down and remember our innate wholeness, we touch a source of vitality and joy that is always available, even in the midst of challenge.

This retreat invites us into beloved community: a space of compassion, authenticity, and shared presence where healing and transformation can take root. Together we will explore what it means to bless our aliveness—not by striving or achieving, but by softening, listening, and allowing space for what is most real to arise.

The day will include guided meditation, dharma reflections, group sharing, and InterPlay—a creative, embodied practice using movement, voice, storytelling and stillness to awaken the wisdom of the body and nourish connection. Come as you are, and leave refreshed, inspired, and more fully alive.

Everyone is welcome, regardless of experience with meditation or Buddhism.
