hiking and more.  Please see their website at:  www.Skalitude.com   

We’ll car pool up there Friday, or meet us there.

The ride over from Seattle area is a wonderful part of the journey!

Bill Hale, M.D. practices psychiatry and mind-body medicine at the Sastun Center of Integrative Health Care in Kansas City. For over ten years he has been teaching people how to suffer less --even in the midst of pain or other stressors -- through an intensive 8-week course in Stress Management based on Mindfulness Meditation. He has practiced meditation since 1973. In addition to his psychiatry residency at the Menninger Foundation, he completed a two-year internship in biofeedback therapy. He has trained in Ayurvedic medicine in India through the auspices of a Fulbright Fellowship, and trained in Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction at the clinic of Jon Kabat-Zinn at the University of Massachusetts School of Medicine.

At this retreat we will do three or four yoga classes, practices of mindfulness meditation and of reducing suffering, a hike, and other activities.   We usually have about 15 people attend, a chance to make new  friends and connect, but also quiet time to read, relax and rejuvenate. 

All classes and activities are optional.
