Walking Meditation with Happy Science Canada

Happy Science Canada is offering its first event in Calgary area: A WALKING MEDITATION in the lovely and magical place of SpiritWood Retreat, Priddis. http://www.spiritwoodretreat.ca/

Happy Science aims to grow in love and prosperity for many members... aiming for HAPPINESS! So, if you are ready to give your Spiritual Being a good treat during this summer, come and join us in this peaceful site on Saturday, August 13, from 9 am to 1 pm. Derek Moline, Director of Happy Science Canada will guide the meditation and directly answer any questions you might have about the organization.

The theme for the day will be the 8 fold path found throughout traditional Buddhism that is used as an eight step path to attaining enlightenment.

Happy Science does NOT intend to "convert" anyone to anything. It is inclusive of all creeds and ways that take a person towards a more lovable and enlightened existance. It does aim, though, to provide the participants with paths to help them in their journey towards self-realization and enlightment.

The purpose of the day is to give an introduction to HAPPY SCIENCE and the eight fold path so that participates can continue in their journey to a more attentive, meditative life after the day' s events. During contemplation, participants can eat or snack but are encouraged to remain silent and avoid contact with each other. At the end, we can have a group discussion and share discoveries.

The fee will be only $50 for the half-day program. Fruit, coffee and tea included.

In short:
Place: SpiritWood Retreat http://www.spiritwoodretreat.ca/

Happy Clients

In the last month we have hosted several groups including GeoHistory Inc., United Way Calgary and Momentum. All were very complimentary about the food, the surroundings and the service.
This comment made by Angela Randall is typical of the kind of feedback we received.

"SpiritWood Retreat graciously welcomed and provided us with a wonderful day long retreat. The beautiful summer weather and the perfect location made our day unforgettable Everyone loved the food, the service and the calming and serene atmosphere of SpiritWood. My favorite part of the experience was walking along the creek and discovering the surronding nature after a delicious lunch. SpiritWood Retreat is truly an undiscovered gem just outside of Calgary that I would reccommend to any group of people looking for an escape from the busyness of the city."
Angela Randall - Volunteer/Summer student with United Way Calgary

We would love to offer your group the same wonderful experience. Call (403-242-279) or e-mail trudymayer@shaw.ca to book your next event.
