Heartfulness Training (crafted by EM)
Aware of the many hardships of being human, I am committed to finding ways to bolster & nourish my heart. I am determined to practice self-care, rest, play, and water seeds of joyful living. Knowing that time is precious, life is short, and energy is limited and ever-changing, I will contemplate the necessity of keeping my heart strong, for the benefit of myself and all beings.
Offerings of Empty Mountain
Our vision also includes the future potential of residential living, from seasonal to full-time living options on site.
A Seed is Sprouting
In July of 2002, Empty Mountain Practice Center went from a seed to a sprout and is starting to plant roots in the Lolo National Forest near Superior, Montana (60-miles west of Missoula). OI members Mike & Nicole went from in-town living to simple living in the woods, off-grid & without running water, to follow a long-held vision of establishing a small mindfulness practice center, with the aspiration of offering residential living opportunities, based in the Plum Village tradition of spiritual practice. We’re out here taking one small step at a time.
