Meditation Mini-Retreat

 This workshop is a meditation mini-course which is useful for beginners as well as experienced meditators. Participants will be given instruction in Mindfulness Meditation (Vipassana) and will be given tools for integrating meditation into their daily lives. You will also learn practices that can be utilized to reduce stress at home and on the job. Participants complete the workshop feeling refreshed and restored, with a new sense of calm, deepened inner peace, and a heightened awareness of - and appreciation for - your life, your relationships and your surroundings.

The workshop will begin at 12:30 pm and end at 5:00 pm. We will experience several cycles of sitting meditation and walking meditation interspersed with “dharma talk” - periods of lecture by the instructor and opportunities for questions and answers. In general, we will use our time together to cultivate mindfulness and relaxed alertness in as many aspects of life as possible.
