RETREAT DESCRIPTION
The format of this supported self-retreat offers a spacious, largely unstructured daily schedule to allow participants to guide their own practice. In order to help make this the most productive period of practice possible, each participant will meet with Jason early in the retreat to discuss the most skillful ways to approach this retreat time with clarity of purpose and aspiration.
There will be two optional group meditation sessions offered daily, one in the morning and one in the evening. Jason will also offer an optional daily Dhamma reflection with Q&A for the full group. Throughout the retreat, Jason will be readily available to all participants for one-on-one practice check-ins and to respond to questions as they arise.
EXPERIENCE PREREQUISITES: Three silent, residential, Buddhist meditation retreats of at least 6 days, with at least one held in either a Theravada or Mahayana tradition.
Partial attendance is not offered for this retreat. Please plan to attend the full 9 days.
