Dharma Pathway

For the first time, we're running four connected retreats over two years at The Barn retreat centre.

We're inviting people to sign up to The Dharma Pathway led by wise and inspiring leaders, and based on the qualities of metta (loving-kindness), karuna (compassion), mudita (joy) and upekkha (equanimity).

By attending all four meditation retreats, you'll have the opportunity to deepen your understanding of The Dharma and Buddhism whilst increasing your sense of community.

You'll be living alongside a Dharma teacher, learning alongside others steeped in Buddhism and learning how to take mindfulness 'off the cushion' to apply it in your life (which is how we at The Barn like to live and teach). Explore the Dharma Pathway below.
