MBSR Mindfulness Retreat 23 - 30 October 2016
(see below for introduction for newcomers to MBSR 17-23 Oct 2016)
Designed especially for those with prior MBSR experience, to refresh and deepen their personal practice; newcomers to MBSR are also welcome (introductory course is recommended, but not required).
Daily practice sessions - on the beach and in our seminar room - include sitting and walking meditation, bodyscan, and yoga. Group and individual discussions, and short information sessions round out the day.
A typical day: We begin with standing yoga on the beach. After breakfast on our hotel terrace, we practice bodyscan in the seminar room or a loner walking meditation on the beach. Then there is plenty of time for individual practice, non-doing, swimming, walking on the beach, exploring the area, and relaxing. In the late afternoon we get together again and practice yoga on a mat and sitting meditation, and have time for talk.
