Advanced Retreats

Retreats offer the opportunity to gain a deeper experience of meditation than in daily life. On retreat we withdraw from our usual routine and structure our time and conditions so that we can get the most out of our meditation.
These particular retreats give the chance to explore particular practices in depth. They are suitable for those with some existing experience of meditation and are unguided. Explanation of the practices can be give before sessions if you are new to them.
