RETREAT DESCRIPTION
DUE TO AN EXTREMELY LONG WAITLIST, THIS RETREAT IS NOW CLOSED FOR REGISTRATION.
During this three-day winter retreat, we will cultivate a deep awareness of ourselves through steady and compassionate attention. Insight meditation invites us to disengage from our usual enmeshment with thinking and discover a sensitivity and intimacy with life. Through this practice based in stillness, our hearts awaken. We will practice sitting, walking and loving-kindness meditation within the quiet beauty of the woods in winter.
Tim will offer evening talks, meditation instructions, and small group interviews to support your practice. This retreat is suitable for meditators of all experience levels.
Partial attendance is not offered on this retreat. Additionally, please consider attending this retreat only if your current life circumstances allow you to engage in an important modern renunciation practice of staying offline and off phone/text during the entire course of the retreat (some exceptions related to pressing family situations may be granted.)
