Awakening Wisdom
Joy of Living Level III Meditation Workshop

Awakening Wisdom: Joy of Living Level III Meditation Workshop

In this weekend workshop, we will explore the practice of insight meditation. By bringing our unchallenged beliefs and patterns into the light of awareness, we can see how our rigid ideas often blind us to the richness of our true nature. The wisdom that arises through insight meditation allows us to see our inner experience clearly. This leads to a sense of freedom, well-being, and confidence that is rooted in awareness itself and available to us each and every moment.

The schedule for this weekend workshop includes video teachings by Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, presentations on the key points of  meditation practice by Senior Tergar Instructor Myoshin Kelley, as well as guided meditations and discussion.

Who Should Attend?

This retreat is open to meditators who have previously attended Calming the Mind: Joy of Living Level I and Opening the Heart: Joy of Living Level II meditation workshops, and have met the practice requirements, and to others who have practiced meditation regularly for at least three years.

We do need fifteen registered attendees to confirm this event, so please register early if you plan to attend.
