Author, columnist, spiritual mentor and teacher Dennis Merritt Jones will present a fullday Mindfulness and Meditation Retreat from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sat., May 30 at the Tierra Rejada Ranch, 5191 Read Road, Moorpark.

The event will help participants know themselves deeper through selfobservation, mindfulness practices, journaling, discourse and various meditation techniques.

According to Merritt Jones, the retreat will "explore the 'knowzone,' the sacred spacious gap that exists between your thoughts where the presence of the Soul Self is known and revealed."

Tuition is $49 per person or $90 for two family members if paid by May 15. Thereafter, the cost is $55 for all attendees.

Preregistration is required. For more information or to reserve a space, call (805) 426-4566 or visit www.DennisMerrittJones.com.
