A Unique, Flexible Online Retreat Experience for Our Times
In this time of radical change there is a great need for the steadiness and peace that can be found in deepening mindfulness practice.
Home-retreats can be a profound opportunity for deepening practice, and offer many benefits. But for some, the idea of an 'online' retreat feels both less compelling and more difficult than visiting a retreat center; trying to practice at home, amidst all of our usual distractions can be challenging.
Most online retreat opportunities offer either a highly intensive, continuous online experience that can become wearying over time, and doesn't necessarily meet the needs or conditions of every at-home meditator; or alternatively, a few drop-in meditations and talks which don't offer a 'retreat container' or the kind of support that a fully scheduled retreat offers. Either option making it difficult to commit or feel supported in our individual at-home environment or circumstances.
This unique live, online format provides the conditions that ideally support your practice at home, at the level of intensity that makes sense for you. Supporting an intensive schedule or a more integrated one, while also offering teacher support in small group meetings just as you would receive with an in-person retreat experience.
One World Mindfulness Retreats provides an opportunity for a retreat experience that ideally supports your practice, with the flexibility to integrate intensive and progressive practice of varying levels into your own schedule.
There is a true happiness, which doesn't depend upon circumstances, that can be found in the practice of mindfulness.
An Insight - "Mindfulness" - Retreat is a radically different kind of respite from daily life; one that cultivates a more reliable relief that transcends worldly pleasure and pain.
