Circle of Stillness Sitting Group invites you to an in-person, daylong retreat on Wise Speech with Dharma Teachers Nanci Edgcomb, ICMC Circle of Stillness and Charlie Berry, ICMC Woodlawn Sangha

The third element of The Noble Eightfold Path is Wise Speech. On this noble path we are training to refrain from verbal misdeeds (lying, harsh speech, idle or useless speech). Instead we are guided to speak the truth and to use words that are friendly, gentle, meaningful and beneficial. Join us as we explore wise speech in more depth at this retreat.

The day will be held in noble silence and will include sitting and walking meditation and dharma talks, as well as yoga, chanting and time for sharing.
