Stillness at the Sanctuary
Details
Veganism is so often about what we do. Stillness at the Sanctuary is about the aspect of compassion that is centered on being present.
++++++++
This unique and inspiring event offers an opportunity to develop mindfulness within the company of rescued and free animals. Open to meditators of any level, or from any tradition. Stillness at the Sanctuary is also an ideal venue to learn about meditation and mindfulness, and is open to beginners.
First time meditators are encouraged to arrive at least 15 minutes early for a brief instruction in meditation posture and technique. The event includes:
- Seated, guided meditation
- Walking meditation
- Mindfulness applied to simple tasks
- Tea and treats during reflection time (all vegan)
The event is held for a suggested donation of $20. For those experiencing economic hardship, there is an option to volunteer for two hours at Rivendell instead. We wish the event to be available to as many people as possible. Donations are used specifically for food, shelter, and medical care for our rescued residents. Attendees are welcome to spend some time with the animals, or walk Rivendell's nature trails afterwards.
Rivendell is a 501c3 charity, the forever home to farmed animals in need.
Please join us for a day of community, inner growth, and the practice of peace
