A weekend retreat, led by Buddhist monk and author Gelong Thubten, focusing on themes from his bestselling books, ‘A Monk’s Guide to Happiness’ and ‘Handbook for Hard Times’. 

The retreat will focus on the Buddhist understanding of psychology and how to work with difficult emotions. There will be a combination of talks and practical meditation sessions, with time for questions and answers. 

A great opportunity for a weekend retreat of learning and practice. For those traveling from afar, reasonably priced accommodation is available at the nearby hotels, within easy walking distance across the park in front of the meditation centre.
