Retreat Description:
This is a tumultuous time full of change as we navigate the pandemic, the need for social justice, along with political, environmental, and economic challenges. As a result of these challenges, you may have experienced a change that’s beyond your control or perhaps you’re recognizing the need for personal change. Change brings up anxiety and uncertainty and it can also be exciting to connect with bigger visions for ourselves and our world.
Research shows that meeting change with mindfulness and being empowered to navigate uncertainty allows us to experience a deep sense of well-being even when life is difficult.
Some of the tools we offer in this workshop are:
• Reflecting on your life and assessing what’s out of balance.
• Using our “Journey through Change Map” to orient yourself in your change.
• Recognizing habits of mind that undermine you and learning to disengage from them.
• Creating a plan for skillfully navigating your change.
Expect a weekend of dynamic inquiry and learn to meet change with confidence and clarity.

Description:
In response to the ongoing challenging conditions of the pandemic, on this Vipassana/Insight meditation retreat we will cultivate the beautiful quality of mindfulness. This mindful awareness nurtures a clarity, wisdom and well-being, qualities so essential at this time. Through “at-home” mindfulness practices, we’ll explore understanding the root causes of stress and suffering and develop the causes for a genuine happiness. These foundational Buddhist practices help you live with a profound ease and freedom wherever you are—the innate peace we all seek.
As well as sitting and walking Insight meditation practice, lovingkindness and compassion teachings will be integrated into the day so that we learn to live with a loving awareness. There will be periods of meditation, talks, questions and discussion. It’s a wonderful retreat to truly integrate these teachings more fully into our lives and practice. We will do so with the supportive community of like-minded meditators.

Description:
At its core, the Dharma is practical, and the teachings on emptiness (Suññatā) are no exception. This important teaching, however, can often feel conceptual and illusory. This online retreat is an invitation to open to the accessible and practical teachings on emptiness, to be witnessed internally and externally, both during formal practice and in our daily lives. Seeing experience through this lens offers freedom from the prison of our limited conceptual framework, the contraction of which can lead to greed and grasping or hatred and aversion, and the whole entangled web of suffering. Far from being bleak and nihilistic, emptiness practice liberates experience to be appreciated in richer fullness, and serves as the womb of love and compassion.

Dates: Wednesday to Friday, April 14 – 16, 2021 (3 half days).
Sliding Scale: $75-$325. Code LW1M21.
Please Note: This retreat is offered online only. We invite you to try this creative form of practice as we take care of one another and respond skillfully to COVID-19.
Description:
On this brief retreat, the teachers will share experience-based skills, and the invitation to develop more compassion, balance, and even peace with illness. When illness strikes, fears, worries, and overwhelm are often the inner aspects of suffering. The invitation is not to turn away, but bring gentle human presence to the reality, and see if this provides a refuge, a place to respond from.
Sometimes it’s really important to pull back, let go, take rest. Other times, intentional action is needed. Tuning into the varying needs, capacities, and limitations of ourselves and others is a constant learning process. Meditations on embodiment, compassion, and listening can be very supportive.
During the retreat we will attend to each other, respecting as much as possible the differing abilities, needs, and beauty of each other. Retreat instructions will be adapted for a variety of access needs. Guided meditations, Dharma talks, and group discussions will be offered to support the exploration. Sessions are relatively short, and adaptations will be encouraged, like lying down to meditate. Optional recorded materials will be posted for use outside the daily sessions, including an access-centered movement practice by Jess Schlesinger, a yoga teacher skilled in working with a range of abilities.
All are warmly welcome: those who have been sick, those who care about another’s illness, those who know illness impacts communities nearby and beyond our horizons, and those who tend to our health, knowing illness will happen for all beings anyway.
All are welcome! No one will be turned away for lack of funds as space allows. For more information, please email Registration@spiritrock.org.

Description:
In your investigation of the world, never allow the mind to desert the body. Examine its nature, see the elements that comprise it. When its true nature is seen fully and lucidly by the heart, the wonders of the world will become clear.
– Ajahn Mun
Over a year into this global pandemic, many of our bodies are carrying more tension than ever. This process of collecting tension can cause chronic pain, emotional imbalance and contribute towards relational distress, or it can lead to compassion and insight. Buddhist teachings point directly to the body as a vehicle of liberating wisdom.
This retreat will focus on lovingkindness for the physical body and meditation on the elements as a path to well-being, liberating wisdom and love for self, others and world.

Differences with others about views and strategies can be challenging, whether in close relationships, the workplace, political polarization, or relationships between ethnic groups. Such differences may lead to frustration, despair, anger, and even violence.

Rooted in the Buddha’s Middle Way and his understanding of views, the contemporary work of peacemakers and a vision of non-dual “conflict transformation,” and wise speech practice (including resources from Nonviolent Communication), we will approach differences as opportunities for empathy, learning, reconciliation, steadiness, trust, and compassion.

Description:
The Four Noble Truths are the Buddha’s first teaching, which is said to contain the sum of all of his teachings. Based on one of the oldest Theravada texts, there is a rarely taught practice of utilizing the Four Noble Truths to attain Twelve Insights that bring freedom and well-being. These insights prescribe a radically different way for us, with all of our vulnerability and fear, to engage with life just as it is and find joy even in the midst of suffering.
In this four-day, silent retreat, we will explore each of the Four Noble Truths in depth and learn how we can apply the insights of this teaching to our daily lives. The goal of this retreat is to discover how the Four Noble Truths become the Four “Ennobling”
Truths.
Each day will have periods of sitting and walking meditation along with Dharma talks, discussion, and Q&A.

Sliding Scale: $75-$600. Code SF1M21.
Continuing Education Credits: Pending approval
Description:
The Buddha’s first insight on the path to liberation, remembering a childhood moment under a rose-apple tree, centered on the power of ease and pleasure in meditation. As he discovered, when we bring awareness to our bodies with an intimate, loving presence, we open to the full range of embodied experience, from visceral emotion to sublime relaxation and bliss.
Suffering is a synonym for trauma, arising when our nervous system’s natural self-protective responses to stress become habitual. Sustained somatic attention, supported by gentle movement, Dharma teachings, and compassionate mindfulness of the body and feelings can open into both healing and insight.
In this 2-day practice and study retreat, we’ll practice somatic approaches to mindfulness, understand our nervous system patterns of self-protection and habitual negativity, and feel the importance of bliss, joy, and ease in the Buddha’s descriptions of the path.
