Retreat Description:
In this silent Insight Meditation retreat, we will explore the Buddha’s teachings of the Four Foundations of Mindfulness as a pathway to personal and collective liberation. The retreat will offer a nurturing container for practice that will include daily dharma talks and meditation instructions. The retreat schedule is designed to allow for putting down our typical distractions and busyness of the world through renunciation, deep silence, and stillness. As we care for our inner freedom, we can show up with greater wisdom to better serve our collective freedom.
This retreat will aid the beginning meditator in understanding the core mindfulness practices, as well as engage the more experienced meditator.
Financial assistance is available for all Spirit Rock residential retreats. Our scholarship rate is $40/night and available for all those with financial hardship with special funds allocated to People of Color (POC), folks with serious medical conditions, and young adults (age 18-26). Scholarship funding is offered on a first-come, first-serve basis. Scholarships are budgeted per retreat and because they are in high demand, can run out quickly. We encourage you to register for a retreat as close as possible to the registration opening date (lotteries are an exception).
