Ushering in a sense of spaciousness and ease with Mark Ovland As human beings, we possess a remarkable capacity — one we often overlook. In any given moment, we can choose how we relate to our experience. We can shift perspective, alter our attention, and take up any number of different views. Humble as this may seem, its significance is nothing less than world-changing: Buddhist teachings show us that the way we relate to our experience actually shapes what we see. This understanding can open a doorway to the most profound sense of freedom in life, and to the boundless capacities of the heart to open in joy and in wonder. On this retreat we’ll explore this insight more fully, drawing on Rob Burbea’s “ways of looking” framework. We’ll experiment with ways of relating to our experience that soften grasping, gladden the heart, and usher in a sense of spaciousness and ease. As well as playing with these ideas in meditation, we’ll also look at how different ways of relating can enrich and transform our ordinary daily lives. During the day we'll practise in both stillness and movement. There'll be meditation guidance, dharma reflections, and opportunities for questions and sharing. Outside of these times the day will be held in companionable silence. Everyone is welcome, and the retreat will be livestreamed for greater accessibility (online ticket sales end 23rd September) Mark will be assisted on the day by Wah Isaacs, a graduate of the Community Dharma Leader programme run by Gaia House Mark offers all of his teaching on dana, there will be an opportunity to offer Mark dana during the day. Mark Ovland Mark began practising meditation in 2008 and spent the following four years living and working in retreat centres and monasteries around the UK and Asia. Motivated to make the precious teachings he’d received more widely accessible and available, in 2013 he co-founded Freely Given Retreats and soon afterwards pioneered taking mindfulness courses into UK prisons. In more recent years Mark has been especially engaged with environmental campaigning and climate action. He was a close student of the late Rob Burbea.

Join Psychic Medium David Maddock live for an inspiring evening of messages from those you love. An Evening with Psychic Medium David Maddock From the moment David Maddock steps onto the stage, audiences sense they are part of something meaningful. David’s live events are immersive, emotionally engaging experiences shaped by warmth, clarity, and genuine connection. Each evening unfolds naturally, guided by intuition, presence, and a clear intention to leave people feeling uplifted, reassured, and deeply considered. After being invited to take his work to London’s West End, David sold out the event, leaving audiences astounded by the depth, authenticity, and emotional impact of the experience. He now brings that same acclaimed live work to venues across the UK, connecting with new audiences in a way that feels personal, respectful, and real. An internationally recognised psychic medium and two time Midlands Psychic Medium of the Year, David is known for working with sincerity and emotional intelligence, with his live events reflecting the same approach that underpins his private work. Every event is different. Some moments are powerful and moving, others quieter and reflective, but all are held with care and authenticity. Whether you receive a personal message or simply observe, David’s focus remains constant. That people leave feeling better than when they arrived. This is more than an evening out.
