Join the Insight Meditation Scottsdale group for a day of mindfulness practice, cultivating our capacity to find the stillness at our center, supported by an experienced teacher and in community with others. The opportunity to practice in community, and in person together  provides a powerful boost to the felt experience of stillness developed over the day.  This retreat is open to all, and is appropriate for those new to practice, as well as experienced practitioners. 

The day will include instruction, guided and silent practice sessions in both mindfulness and loving kindness practices; in a format of alternating periods of sitting and walking meditation (with plenty of indoor air conditioned space available for walking periods)
