Everyday experiences are opportunities for wakefulness.

Several dimensions of awakening will be explored, from transforming emotional habits and raising ecological awareness to drawing inspiration from the meditative arts and from findings in contemplative neuroscience.
This retreat is offered as a benefit to support IMS's mission.
8 CEs are available for Psychologists and Licensed Mental Health Counselors.
