Buddhist Day Retreat

Today I have had the great pleasure to go on a Buddhist day retreat led by an incredible speaker, Kelsang Rigden, a Canadian Buddhist nun from the Tara Kadampa Centre in Barbados.

We were truly blessed by her grace, humility and humour, we spent all day in meditation, prayers and rest, it was very beautiful and such a welcome rest for me from what has become a difficult and challenging time here in the house, we have been experiencing a lot of noise from the road works and I am not sure if we will be able to stay here under these conditions much longer, we are trying to negotiate something with the agents and owners.

This is an excerpt from today:

A mind clouded with negativity and distraction brings confusion and pain. In our busy life it is hard to rid our mind of these clouds and easy to let negative minds overwhelm us and take control. Discover how to access the blissful clarity of your mind and banish distractions, improving mindfulness and inner balance.


Just what I need right now-!!


Love to all Caro xx
