Mindfulness Day Retreat

The retreat is for people who have completed the 8 week MBSR course, have attended a workshop or already have some mindfulness experience.

A retreat is an opportunity to reduce our distractions and focus on deepening our experience of a particular practice. You will guided through the four foundations of mindfulness in a silent and supportive environment and have the opportunity to really experience the peacefulness that mindfulness can bring.

Please wear loose clothes so that you will be comfortable to sit, lie down and perform simple yoga and qigong exercises. 

Feedback from the retreat participants:

A real sense of peace and calm...  I found today very soothing and restorative .... I have found that I have been able to let go of thoughts both past and present in today’s retreat. This is a big step for me as I tend to hold onto things that build up over a series of months. 

You will have the opportunity to experience all the different mindful meditation techniques from the mindfulness courses:

• Mindfulness of Breathing meditation
• Body Scan meditation
• Mindful Movement
• Mindful Walking
• Mindful Eating
• Mountain Meditation
• Loving Kindness / Compassion meditation
