Strengthening the two wings of Awakening: Wisdom and Compassion
This nine-day retreat will provide an opportunity to strengthen both the wisdom and the compassion wings of awakening.  We will explore a variety of different practices taken from the Four Foundations of Mindfulness, alongside the four brahmavihara heart practices of kindness, compassion, joy, and equanimity.

Each day, there will be sessions of guided and silent sitting meditation, walking meditation, group discussion, individual meetings with the teacher and a period of optional, gentle mindful movement.

There will be a period of relational meditation on the first two and last two days, while the middle days will be in full silence.  Relational or interpersonal meditation involves working in dyads (pairs) to practice mindful speaking and listening.

This retreat is best suited to people who have done at least one previous insight meditation weekend retreat.
