To cultivate loving-kindness and self-compassion as foundational components of a mindfulness teacher.
Silent meditation retreats can be a wonderful opportunity to deepen an existing practice of mindfulness, but can also be challenging for people very new to the practice. Therefore I strongly recommend that you have had previous formal mindfulness training or experience of extended regular daily personal mindfulness practice.

The importance of Silent Retreats for teachers of Mindfulness-Based Interventions or anyone wanting to reset or re-energise themselves.
An important aspect of any mindfulness retreat, is periods of silent practice, our intention for this retreat is to support your personal practice. This 5-night retreat will consist of sustained periods of silence, alternating sitting and walking meditation, with periods of Mindful Movement. All vital for deepening a personal practice and fundamental for living a life that is mindful. There will be afternoon sessions exploring the foundations of mindfulness with additional Metta meditation practices, to strengthen kindness and compassion, with evening talks. Throughout the week there will be scheduled group and individual meetings with the teachers. It is a rare opportunity to slow down and give our hearts and minds the space to access your inner wisdom and compassion.
