Mindfulness Intensives

Half-Day Practices

Second Sunday Mini-Retreats

We have been offering a monthly opportunity to explore your own mind in silence and begin to experience the benefits of concentration practice to complement your mindfulness practice. The retreats are scheduled for the second Sunday of each month, from 1:00 - 4:00. There will be three sittings, each one followed by a period of walking meditation and increasing in duration over the afternoon. There is a short dharma talk after the first sitting. Please contact me at catherine@bhavanacommunity.org or click below to register. Only brief preliminary instructions will be provided so if you need more detailed meditation instructions, please contact me before the program.

As this is a fundraiser, there is no fee and we ask that you offer what you can.

Day Long Practices

Although Day-Long Retreats have been out of the question during Covid, we hope to be offering them again soon.
