| Spirit Rock invites you to a special Insight Meditation Retreat with senior Spirit Rock teachers who have been here since the beginning. This is a rare chance to be on a retreat with several of our founding teachers together! Spirit Rock was founded in 1984 by a group of teachers trained by Jack Kornfield, Sharon Salzberg, and Joseph Goldstein, the founders of Insight Meditation Society in Barre, MA.
This retreat emphasizes quieting the mind, opening the heart, and developing clarity and depth of practice. Traditional instructions based on the Foundations of Mindfulness will be combined with daily mettā (lovingkindness) practice, silent sitting and walking periods, guided movement sessions, practice meetings with teachers, and daily Dharma talks. All registrants will be guaranteed a single room. |

The Buddha advised us to not only cultivate wholesome states but to maintain and increase them when they arise. How can we do that without attachment? This talk explains how to cultivate and strengthen wholesome states not only in retreat but in daily life. James explains the Buddhist principles and practices he shares in his Awakening Joy course.
