Vipassana, or insight meditation, uses mindful breathing techniques to develop serenity and wisdom, and a clear, calm, concentrated mind. This retreat is an opportunity to practice this ancient Theravada Buddhist tradition.
We also learn gentle yoga movements in the Viniyoga tradition—which emphasizes the coordination of mindfulness, breathing, and body movement—to strengthen the spine and open the body for sitting meditation.
People of any age or body condition can participate; beginners as well as professionals and more experienced practitioners are welcome.
Bring a mat or blanket for Viniyoga practice. Recommended reading: Gunaratana, Mindfulness in Plain English; Rosenberg, Breath by Breath; T.K.V. Desikachar, The Heart of Yoga.
Larry Rosenberg is the author of Breath by Breath and Living in the Light of Death. He is a senior teacher at the Insight Meditation Society in Barre, Massachusetts, and founder and resident teacher at the Cambridge Insight Meditation Center, also in Massachusetts. cimc.info
