Lama Rod Owens in Portugal
April 3-8 2024
It will be Lama Rod’s first visit in Odeceixe, Portugal and in our shala. It will be a full awakening experience.
Lama Rod Owens offers a level of freedom and care which most of us have not experienced before.
This truly is the medicine and the nectar to not only survive, but thrive in these apocalyptic times. Highly recommended.
If you wish to get to know a bit more about Lama Rod’s work, Wambui hosts a donation-based meditation gathering on zoom. Email Wambui (info@wambuinjuguna.com) to join in.

Becoming A New Saint
Saints, spiritual warriors, bodhisattvas, zaddikim—no matter how they are named in a given tradition, they all share a profound altruistic wish to free others from suffering. Saints are not beings of stained glass or carved stone. “Each of us can be a new saint,” says Lama Rod Owens. “In our pain, our trauma, and all our complexity, we all can—and must—awaken the virtue of our compassion for the benefit of our communities, our planet, and our own souls.”
Join Lama Rod on retreat where he’ll share personal stories, spiritual teachings, and instructions for contemplative and somatic practices from his newest book, The New Saints: From Broken Hearts to Spiritual Warriors. This work reinforces the truth of our interdependency—allowing us to be of service to the collective well-being, and to call on the support and strength of the countless beings who share our struggles and hopes.
Lama Rod will be visiting Odeceixe, Algarve, Portugal for his first time! Join him for an immersion, hosted by Yoga Roots Odeceixe from April 3-8, 2024
