This retreat is designed to integrate our mindfulness practice with our everyday activities. During this weeklong online retreat we will explore a relaxed open awareness with an emphasis on exploring qualities of mind, and the attitude towards one’s experience. Such an open awareness practice supports both the formal meditation of sitting and walking, as well as awareness of our normal daily activities. The emphasis for this week will be exploring integrating awareness into our whole day and all activities.
To support the practice during this online retreat, Andrea asks that you commit to participating in all seven daily instruction sessions when you register.
