The Annual KMC NYC “Country Retreat”

Directing the Change

A meditation course on how to redirect yourself in this time of change so that you become the person you wish to be with the life you wish to have.

We are in the middle of unprecedented changes. And more changes are coming our way. But is that something that just happens to us or can we direct the change?

During this weekend course, Kadam Morten will explain and guide a series of meditations that will give us the tools to truly seize the day and take full advantage of this unusual situation. Using the imaginative and beautiful meditation practice known as taking and giving, we will learn to direct the change to begin to create our best self and world.
