Oxford Gaia House Retreats
Each and every mood is lying to you; if you are aware of it happening just ten times, that’s better than nothing. The same old person keeps lying about the same old things. If you are simply aware of what goes on that’s already good, because it takes so long before you even become aware of the truth. The defilements are trying to delude you all the time.

Oxford Gaia House Retreats offer a programme of day retreats led by teachers associated with Gaia House. The retreats offer an opportunity to explore both sitting and walking meditation practices in a supportive environment. The teachers normally provide guidance through meditation instruction, a dharma talk and a question and answer session.
Gaia House
Gaia House was founded in 1984 to provide an environment for the teaching and practice of ethics, meditation and wisdom. The retreat centre provides a sanctuary of calm stillness welcoming all people who wish to explore the heart of understanding and freedom. A variety of group retreats is available as well as the possibility of spending time in solitary retreat. Nearly all retreats are held in silence.
