How can someone benefit from a meditation retreat?
A meditation retreat creates a memory of feeling whole and good – what your life can be. It’s one of the touchstones for more meaningful life and a new perspective. A meditation retreat is all about training your awareness so that you can be more present to your own life and the possibilities available in every moment. This way, when our “real lives” a kick in again when we get home, we can respond rather than react to certain situations. At first the changes may be subtle, you might order something different on a menu, have more patience with your children , or you notice you are less concerned about what people think . There also might be more profound changes: you realize you don’t like your job, or where you live, or you realize a new passion in life. My goal is to teach people how to be self-sufficient, to learn a deep practice of meditation so they can to create an opportunity to retreat every single day. The meditation itself is the retreat.
