La Ville Davy is set within 3 acres of secluded and peaceful gardens and fringes the Forest of Coetquen with a variety of trail walks and wild life.
What happens here The centre offers space for regular Buddhist retreats. There is a schedule of Mindfulness Courses for both beginners and regular practitioners. In addition there is residential and appointment based therapeutic assistance by registered U.K. and Jersey States Health Service psychotherapists. We are also willing to offer the centre for complimentary events.
People can also simply come for a quiet
personal rest, renewal and reflection.
The
centre is run by experienced lay Buddhist practitioners following the Serene
Reflection Meditation
Daily Life In general the centre functions within a Buddhist framework. This includes a daily structure of morning and evening meditation lasting 30 minutes each. Anyone can join the formal meditation and also meditate in the meditation hall at other times. Instruction for beginners is available. Other regular activities include work periods usually in the garden, kitchen or other ways to support daily life in the centre. There is a sense of community with emphasis on quiet reflection, doing one thing at a time and paying attention moment by moment. Meals are vegetarian and as far as possible organically produced. Special diets can be catered for with advanced warning.
