This silent retreat will offer an introduction to basic Buddhist teachings, to insight meditation and to practice in a retreat context. Guided meditations, pointers on sitting posture and opportunities to ask questions will make this an accessible retreat for meditators in beginning stages of practice. Participants will be offered guidance to bring the practice into daily life to meet our relationships, work and responsibilities with mindfulness and an open heart.
There will be an opportunity to ask questions and discuss your practice with Daryl in small group meetings, and individually, by request.
