	"Befriending Ourselves, Our Greatest Gift to Others" with James Baraz and Eve Decker When we develop a basic kindness towards ourselves we not only learn to accept the difficult parts, but in the process embrace our humanity and see more clearly the beauty that's inside. As we do that we allow our goodness and True Nature to shine through. This becomes a gift to everyone we meet, a healing energy that awakens the goodness in others as well. This daylong suitable for beginners and experienced students will include meditation instructions, periods of silent sitting and walking meditation and talks on the theme of the day. This retreat is offered without any formal charge. People can offer dana for the teaching in a spirit of generosity.
