Kenneth and Beth leading Life Retreat February 2013

Hi Everybody,

I'm very pleased to announce that Beth Resnick-Folk and I are going to lead an eight-week Life Retreat beginning February 4th, 2013. The idea is to help yogis make progress in daily life when it isn't feasible to go on long-term retreat. The Life Retreat is a Buddhist Geeks project, so you know it's going to be good. (Everything Vince, Emily, and Kelly do seems to turn out great.) There will be one individual session per week and one group session per week for each yogi throughout the eight-week course.

Really excited about this; looking forward to February. Limited to ten participants, so hurry up and do it you're gonna do it! Here is the sign-up link:

See you there,

Kenneth

Very cool, Kenneth. I saw Vince mention this project a while back and it looks like a great opportunity for people who can't just get up and go on a long retreat. Good luck!

I signed up.
I hope this can help me re-start my practice in daily life.

I'm tempted, but I think I'll save my money to do a full-on, get-out-of-dodge style retreat in the Spring.

Kenneth, I'm also very interested and would love to get additional help with my practice at the moment. Like Andy asked, what times are the sessions? If it's based on when the participants are available, I'm in. I was about to sign up but saw that it's set to start on Monday at 1 PM MST, at which time I'd be at work. I assume that's just when the program as a whole starts, rather than the time for the introductory session.

Hi Andy and Jigme,

The individual sessions are scheduled based on each student's availability. The group sessions are Saturdays at 9:00am Pacific Standard time and Mondays at 6:00pm PST. Each student attends one but not both of the weekly group sessions and gets one individual session per week, alternating between Beth and Kenneth.

Ah, shame. I'd like to do this because it's nice to have the group experience, but I can't make the Saturday times and the Monday time is 2am here! Oh well. Very best of luck to all participating!

I'm currently doing Life Retreat with Emily and Vince and I think it is a good idea. My only suggestion is that it could perhaps benefit from a bit more structure.

I'm considering doing the February Life Retreat but one hitch is that I'll be on vacation and unreachable Feb 16 - 25. Perhaps the individual sessions could be rescheduled around this difficulty?

Hi Kenneth, I just signed up for the tenth spot but haven't got a confirmation yet from Vince & Emily. I'm hoping I got in under the wire! I really appreciated our Skype sessions last summer & it would be great to pick up with you again this way. So here's hoping! ;-D However it turns out, hope you are well, Kenneth. Doug.
