Weekend Retreat

This in-person weekend retreat has a simple program that provides you an opportunity to practice in mindful silence, allowing you to more easily settle your mind and maintain awareness of your every activity.

Sitting periods are thirty minutes, for around 5 – 7 periods per day. In between sittings you are guided in gentle yoga and walking meditation.

The retreat also offers a review of basic meditation methods such as breath awareness, introductory guidance in silent illumination, as well as brief Dharma talks.

This retreat is designed for those who have experience with meditation (e.g. attended a formal class, done a 1-day retreat) and ideally have a routine meditation practice.
