The Power of Pause:
Finding Rest, Renewal, and Happiness in Our Busy Lives

When we pause, allow a gap and breathe deeply, we can experience instant refreshment. Suddenly, we slow down, look out, and there’s the world.
Pema Chödrön

This weekend away from the busyness of your life is designed to guide you in mining the gold that is deep rest.

The collective mantra of our time – “I’m so busy” – is pervasive. Taking restorative time for yourself is a revolutionary act in favor of vitality, mental clarity and focus, inner peace, and a sustained sense of contentment and love.

Experience the immense power of intentionally pausing as an antidote to overwork, unrelenting responsibilities and desires, and mindless accumulation.
