About the retreat

Is there a formula to help yourself feel happier?

In this weekend urban retreat, Gen Lekma will explain and guide powerful meditations that will enable you to relate to yourself and your life in a positive and transformative way.

You will not only experience inner peace, but learn a sequence of powerful meditations that form the foundation for building happiness by changing our thought process. You will discover for yourself in this weekend retreat that there is a ‘happiness formula’ that works.. Each meditation will help you to develop wise reactions and increase your sense of physical and mental well-being in daily life.

These are practical meditation techniques that come from a special sequence of Buddhist instructions called Lamrim. You don’t have to be Buddhist or have any previous experience of meditation to gain benefit from this weekend retreat. Everybody is welcome to join one or both days.

You will discover:

• Meditations that uplift your mind and bring feelings of hope.
• How to find happiness from inside.
• Ways to improve your ability to meditate, gain concentration & focus.
