About this Event

Opening to Silence

About the event:

This is a mostly silent meditation and yoga retreat, where you can discover that – amazingly – you are completely fulfilled from the start. Sam Settle and Sandy Chubb will offer plenty of silence to give you a chance to become intimate with the presence of who you are. As the mind and heart becomes quiet, the ego rests itself too. Then it all begins. The asana and pranayama sessions will free the body so you can sit easily in meditation. Braziers Park is set in a beautiful landscape. There will be times to enjoy it by day and under the moon and stars by night. Whether you have little or lots of experience of silent meditation and yoga retreats, you are welcome.

Sandy Chubb is a British Wheel of Yoga (BWY) teacher and Zen Teacher with the Oxford Zen Centre. She served as the Director of the Prison Phoenix Trust from 2000 to 2010.

Sam Settle is a BWY teacher and a Zen student. He served as Prison Phoenix Trust Director from 2010 to 2020.
