Traditional Buddhist meditation retreat

"Technique of observing breathing and sensations to cure fears and addictions"

Meditation Vipassana Theravada

“Teaching of reality”

We teach traditional meditation: that of reality. For 45 minutes, we explore the breath, its journey, and the sensations of the breath. Then we begin to feel, starting from the top of your head, the sensations that travel through the body, sensations of hot, cold, tingling, all sensations throughout the body. Every day, we offer you a moment during which you can explore your body yourself.

To keep the mind alert, we use the sound of singing bowls. For 45 minutes, it defines your intensity in the practice, and helps you concentrate. The practice is very powerful.

Singing Bowls Meditation

In Buddhist practice, singing bowls are used as a support for meditation, trance induction, and prayer. Calming sound is one of the most ancient energy shifting tools, a singing bowl is a wonderful tool for meditation, stress reduction, and holistic healing.

Singing bowls have a long history of use in East Asian cultures and have been used for much more than well-being in traditional contexts and spiritual practices. Many sound therapy practitioners identify singing bowls because of their potential roots in Buddhist prayer and meditation in Southeast Asia and Cambodia.

There are many studies on the benefits of meditation, to relieve pain in joints, muscles and shoulders, improve digestion, reduce headaches and migraines, improve circulation, release tension, and reduce blood pressure and stress.

Anapana sati & Vipassana sati

attention to the breath.

In Theravada Buddhism, the breath is the most common meditation object when it comes to calming the mind, by practicing meditation “samatha bhavana”. Breath is always present in any living being, and this phenomenon is sometimes conscious, sometimes not, which seems to be the reason for its popularity.

Attention to the breath is also popular in the practice of “Vipassana” meditation. For example, Mahasi Sayadaw uses attention to the movements of the abdomen due to breathing as the starting point of Vipassana meditation, without seeking a particular concentration (Dhyana). However, Anapana Sati is the technique to access the altered states of consciousness that are the Dhyanas.

Our teachers guide you through improving your meditation practice with such methods as Pranayama (breathing), walking or dancing meditation, Yoga Nidra. Each teacher will share their experience and dialog with you and work with you based on your experience and preference.

Meditation works, we are beyond proving that this is one of the few practices which naturally appeases our mind, enables rewiring of the brain, helps us better ourselves, and helps us make better decisions. There are many benefits to be gained, and it only takes minutes of your day to get there.
