Activism
Although the link between meditations days and activism might not seem obvious, for us
Frome Insight began as a form of activism - an open hearted response to the times we live in.

We believe that there are many responses to suffering we experience and observe in the world, organising day retreats is one response for us, but may not be the correct or best response at all times. So we are stepping forward with more questions than answers, about how we can respond in this world.
The answers are potentially very small or huge, local or global, they might involve whole communities, or be very personal shifts
We want to create opportunities to explore these questions together, and that is what this part of the website is for.
- How can we support each other, as a sangha (community), to use our practice and years of experience to make a positive difference in the world?
- What would it look like to live more in accordance with the Dharma?
- How do we find a way into relationship with the world and with the beings in it, human and other-than-human, and at the same time stay awake, without falling into personal patterns like overwhelm or blame?
