Retreats

Retreats offer an opportunity to develop continuity of awareness by practicing silent sitting and walking meditation, supported by a teacher and a community of other practitioners. Practice in a retreat environment helps cultivate wisdom and compassion by manifesting noble qualities such as mindfulness, concentration, confidence, perseverance, and equanimity.

Retreats include a catered lunch and generally observe noble silence.
