Living with Illness and Loss

Living with Illness and Loss

Are you currently living with an illness or bereavement and interested in finding different ways of being with and relating to the challenges this brings? This retreat provides the opportunity to explore being present with your experiences just as they are without judgement or blame, beginning to realise the possibility for change that this approach brings.

Guided meditation, experiential exercises and contemplative art/writing will be used, also sharing your experiences with others and in private interviews.

Because of practical constraints, we request that those attending be able to manage tasks of daily living.


CAROLINE JONES has been practising meditation since 1989. She started teaching in 2006, and now teaches at Gaia House and internationally. She has also covered periods at Gaia House as resident teacher and will do so again in 2013.

ZOHAR LAVIE has been practicing meditation in different traditions since 1995. This journey has taken her from the meditation cushion into exploring further ways of expressing truth and love and in 2004 she co-founded SanghaSeva. She now spends most of her time facilitating retreats that offer service as a spiritual path around the world. Since 2006 she has been teaching on silent retreats and Dharma gatherings in India, Europe and Israel.
