Welcome!
We were thrilled to offer this meditation retreat with Carol Wilson and Andrea Fella, with assistance from Neesha Patel, June 7 – 13, 2021.
The teachings during this week-long retreat explored the four foundations of mindfulness with open awareness and receptive attention, with an emphasis on recognizing the attitude of mind and cultivating the perspective of wise view. The teachings are influenced by the three teachers’ practice with Sayadaw U Tejaniya.
This page for registered participants of the live retreat includes links to the session recordings and Post-Retreat Resources. Links to the chant sheet used during the retreat, Suggested At-Home Practice Schedule, recommended home retreat guidelines, Zoom information, and information about online retreat etiquette are located in the Retreat Resources section below for your reference.
