Intensives and Retreat Programs
We will continue to offer two residential retreats each year, and will add a number of weekend and all-day practice sessions. Stay tuned!
Summer 2010 Retreat
We are delighted to invite you for intensive practice with us in our Summer 2010 Mindfulness Meditation Retreat. For 4 1/2 days in July, we will explore mindfulness and meditation, stillness and movement, group exercises, individual practice, and speech and silence. Through practice we will directly experience the brilliance of the world around us and the natural clarity of our own deepest self.

Intensive practice is one of the most powerful ways to deepen and extend your path of mindfulness and meditation. It allows us to leave the distractions and preoccupations of daily life. Part of the retreat will contain longer periods of silence for us to more fully be in the experience of mindfulness. We are excited to offer this opportunity to continue on this path together. Come to experience the radiance of your most authentic self.
Your personal commitment is what will fuel the power of this program. Please join this retreat with the intention of participating fully. We look forward to continuing our journey together.

Prerequisites
Completion of the eight-week Penn Program for Stress Management introductory course, or an established mindfulness meditation practice and permission from the instructor.
Cost
The price of the 4 1/2-day residential retreat, including a Single room and board, is $989. Double, and Triple shared room accommodations are available for $849. Accommodations are available for 40 people. This year, due to the high demand for single rooms, we will be holding a lottery. If you would like a single room, your name will be placed in the lottery and we will randomly pick names for the single rooms on December 7, 2009. If you do not get a single room, we will place in a double or triple, unless you decide to take a non-residential spot. All other spaces are first come, first serve. We encourage you to take advantage of this residential option, as it will assist you in containing the stillness and open awareness that we will cultivate together over the course of the retreat. A limited number of $639 non-residential spots are also available. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and mid-day snacks during the day are included in the program fee.
