Insight Meditation (Vipassana) is the foundation of Buddhist meditation practices. Simple, yet profound and powerful, it helps build awareness in each moment so you can begin to understand and free yourself from restrictive patterns, whether mental, emotional and physical. Ongoing practice leads not only to compassion and open-heartedness, but clarity and wisdom. Andy also uses active self-inquiry meditations to tackle specific conflicts. Qigong techniques will be specially selected by Shifu James to enhance cleansing, opening and grounding during the retreat. Qigong regulates body, energy (Qi) and mind. It has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), internal martial arts and spiritual transformation. Location: Harmony Dawn Retreat, please contact us to register.
