Love that Heals • Guided Day Retreat

About the Guided Day Retreat

Love is a powerful force for healing, transformation, and forgiveness. It can gradually overcome anger and resentment, paving the way for happier, more harmonious relationships.

We have far greater capacity than we often realise to experience genuine happiness and peace within ourselves and with others. During this day retreat, Gen Lachpa will guide us in meditations that awaken the healing power of love, helping us develop a warm and open heart that naturally brings greater joy and meaning to everyday life.
