Insight Meditation (Recollective Awareness) Retreats
These retreats are silent but with the opportunity to work in small groups and hold discussions or interviews with the teacher. The emphasis is on working with your own particular mediation practice. The approach allows for flexibility around difficulties with posture and daily routine. Nutritious vegetarian meals are provided. There are also opportunities for off-site accommodation.

Upcoming retreat
When 16-21 October 2019
Where Openlight Camp Centre, Victor Harbor
Knowing what we know, how are we to live?
The Buddhadharma offers us a way of living. We are invited to build an ethical, contemplative and wisdom-based practice/life, that optimises flourishing or at least a minimum of harm. We live in a time and culture that offers many challenges, difficulties and uncertainty for ourselves, future generations and our planet. This retreat offers us an opportunity to embrace nature, beauty, silence, meditation, dharma talks and reflection within a supportive community. In doing so we can explore how we might experience disconnection and how might we align our inner and outer world, in order to respond appropriately. We will offer an experience-based approach to meditation through journaling, attending groups, silent walking in nature and learning from our own and other’s experience.
