Insight Meditation and Relational Mindfulness

Our retreats are an excellent and efficient means for enrichening and deepening any kind of meditation practice. They also provide the rare opportuinty for deepening personal and professional relational skills. (Available also as Continuing Education - see below)

Aug 20-21, 2010

These retreats, taught by Mary Rees, are open to both new and experienced students. The Friday night session is essential for those new to Vipassana. The retreats are held at Dawn Mountain at 1925 B Richmond Avenue in Houston, TX 77098-3401.

The retreat format allows time for practicing the basics in insight and mindfulness, offering the rare opportunity for guided and sustained attention, creating a rich opportunity for deepening concentration, and making a significant and lasting impact on the mind.

Working with spiritual texts and interpersonal practice will be included as a means of deepening experiential investigation of the teachings in general, but also including a unique theme or investigaton for each retreat.

We include work with basic guidelines of Insight Dialogue supporting the process of practicing together, opening to the truth of both words and silence, and bringing a greater possibility of mindfulness, tranquility and other wholesome qualities into all our interactions.
