Overview
This 5-day mindfulness meditation retreat is a near-silent retreat with a predominantly meditative content, specifically designed to teach the practice of the Vipassana method in the popular Burmese tradition of Ven. Ledi Sayadaw, Saya Thet, U Ba Khin and S. N. Goenka. The retreat has the particularity of developing equanimity, one of the central mechanisms in MiCBT. It provides a more advanced understanding of mindfulness meditation and its fundamental purpose in the wider Buddhist teaching of the Eightfold Noble Path and its relevance to MiCBT. You will benefit from practising an ancient, authentic and unaltered mindfulness meditation tradition.
The retreat is offered to mental health therapists who have attended the MiCBT Foundation or Applied Course. The retreat is an opportunity to deepen your practice of mindfulness meditation and acquire priceless personal and professional benefits. It also provides a deepening of mindfulness meditation’s central effects and how these differ from occasional adverse effects reported in the literature.
This retreat is indispensable to anyone serious about acquiring a thorough experiential understanding of equanimity. While spending five days with like-minded colleagues, the retreat is an ideal way to improve your self-care and regain a sense of peace and equanimity at home and work. This retreat is also an ideal training event to maintain yearly MiCBT professional development.
