We are excited to highlight this retreat facilitated by our cofounder, John Bruna. The focus of the retreat will be helping you develop or strengthen your shamatha (calm-abiding) meditation practice and cultivate joyous effort for your daily practice.
The retreat format will include teachings, meditation, discussion, and personal time. The first half of the day will be dedicated to meditation practice. There will be silence until lunch and multiple meditation sessions of 24 minutes with breaks. The afternoons and evenings will include discussions, question-and-answer periods, and time to connect with others.
The retreat will be hosted by the Way of Compassion Dharma Center and take place at the beautiful Blazing Mountain Retreat Center in Crestone, Colorado. To learn more, visit their website – Meditation and Joyous Effort Retreat.
