SUMMARY:Meditation Breaks in southern France
DESCRIPTION:Taking time out to recharge your batteries at your own pace.\nMeditation breaks are moments for yourself\, to take a break and find your inner peace. \nMeditation is at the heart of meditation breaks. Open to all\, they give you the chance to learn or deepen your understanding of this practice in the tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. We offer two group sessions a day\, guided by experienced instructors\, and have a temple room\, including a library and media centre\, at your disposal. \nOn a 140-hectare site in the heart of the Haut-Languedoc Regional Nature Park\, Lerab Ling’s environment offers us the opportunity to immerse ourselves in unspoilt nature and to enjoy a spiritual place of calm and serenity. \nThe site inspires rest\, discovery and renewal\, and is conducive to outdoor meditation and nature walks\, with many hiking trails. \nThese retreats are primarily held in French but all our teachers speak fluent English.

SUMMARY:Compassion in Community: The practice of extending compassion from self to others
DESCRIPTION:As we move into the autumn months\, this weekend will focus on the question of how we can truly embody compassion—within ourselves\, for one another\, and as a community. \nLed by Ian Ives\, Senior Rigpa Teacher\, we will explore through the wisdom of the Buddhist teachings and complementary practice sessions how compassion which starts with ourselves\, becomes a source of genuine openness and connection. We will consider what it means to open our hearts—even in the face of difficulties—and how we can keep the vast\, unlimited intention of bodhichitta (the heart of enlightened mind) alive in our daily lives. \nThis weekend offers space for contemplation\, personal reflection and shared insight and is open to everyone\, whether absolute beginners or those with more experience of buddhist study and practice. \nEveryone is welcome\, whether completely new to Buddhism or more experienced in Buddhist study and practice.
