Conference Introduction

The teaching will be experience-near, focusing on how mindfulness practice can both deepen our understanding of psychological suffering and enhance our capacity for therapeutic presence and empathy.

 

There will be study modules most afternoons, and regular opportunities for group discussion and individual meetings with teachers. The rest of the time we will observe silence, including during meals, to facilitate a deeper contemplative experience.

 

Mornings and evenings will be devoted to guided sitting and walking meditation, and there will be one completely silent retreat day during the course.
