Why Take a Course or Retreat from One World Mindfulness? 

"The design of the whole journey was beautiful - the container felt safe and spacious, teachings deep and nourishing, sense of community created. The fullness and depth of the experience was the most valuable thing." 

"This is a powerful container. The combination of practice and teaching is perfect. I had a very profound experience and I've attended many types of retreats over the years." 

"I loved so many things about this retreat and am sending my deepest gratitude! It was rich in dharma teachings; while modular, the program was integrated across both modules and teachers: we could feel the warmth and care through zoom from the teachers and participants alike. The structure and structural supporting materials including the customizable schedule were so helpful in pre-planning and not having to worry about logistics during the retreat. I concluded the retreat with so many new ways to practice and an ever deeper desire to do so." 

"The best was of course the teachers. Their presence with knowledge and experience of teaching meditation, their support and their wisdom... They made us feel welcome."

This being my first retreat, I particularly enjoyed having the Dharma Talks every couple of hours... it supported me in keeping my commitments to Noble Silence in an environment where there are a lot of distractions. I loved having the perspectives of four different teachers. Each of you brought something unique to the experience. 

"Thank you for the wonderful week, it was deep, insightful, heart, body and mind work."

"Our instructors supported us in the actual discipline to silently go inward. I really loved all their help structuring our time and guided meditation. The was the first time I "stayed!" "

"I highly valued the format of the retreat. This made it possible for me to be able to participate as I was tuning in from a different time zone which usually makes these events hard to access. This was my first ever retreat. I felt supported and witnessed throughout.

"This was my first retreat so it is impossible for me to know what it feels like to have an in person  experience...  having 4 different teachers was magnificent because it allowed me to learn the same concepts through different ways, approaches, voices. This allowed me to get a deeper understanding of the teachings offered. Having 4 modules was also helpful to set a precise schedule for myself and get into a more diligent habit of practice. 

"I loved the modules and especially the small group breakouts. This was an incredible experience and I will value it for a long time!

"LOVED the online format because it felt like it actually jump started a personal practice at home that a sleep away retreat would not have."

"Being held, led and taught by such wonderful and experienced teachers was the most valuable. The whole experience was amazing, the information for preparing for the retreat was so helpful, it enabled me to make agreements with my family, decide on food, etc and get myself in the right frame of mind to enter the space well... the Dharma talks were fantastic... I felt completely safe...   My container is much larger as a result of this retreat. Thank you and namaste.

"The teachings/modules and guided meditations were incredibly helpful in creating community AND transitioning to individual formal practice both during the retreat and beyond. The containers of a full daily schedule and making commitments ahead of time really set boundaries for the retreat apart from daily life, inner and outer. I am secure in knowing I can and will carry this deeper practice into my daily life from now on." 

"I loved all the resources on the portal."

"The format was perfect for an online retreat: and the teaching modules were incredible - 4 x 2 hours a day with the different teachers was perfect, and the quality of the teaching exceptional." 

"It was a truly life changing experience."

"I thought it was a beautiful retreat. It was well organized, the teachers were warm and accessible, as well as extremely qualified!  Thank you so much! 

"I really appreciated having each topic explored through the lens of the different teachers. All of the teachers conveyed their knowledge and love for the dharma beautifully.

"The most valuable part for me was the structure, and how it so closely mimicked what happens in a real residential retreat. That was what drew me to this retreat and it really delivered!  I will remember it always as such a transformative experience!

"I loved everything about the retreat, the teachers, the community, the teachings, the space. I was so so so very impressed with all of it.  I have for the longest time wanted to do a retreat and this online format made it possible. I don't know the words to say how much I loved and appreciated it.

"This was my first retreat in the Insight Meditation tradition. The Four Foundations of Mindfulness 'came to life' for me through the individual teachers. 

"I felt like I was in the presence of engaged dharma teachers."
