Meditators should expect to practise for the whole day without a break. However, even beginners can manage without too much difficulty as sitting is alternated with walking, interspersed with mindfulness of daily activities. As a preparation for retreats, make sure you have read An Introduction to Meditation, Practical Insight Meditation, and Vipassanā Meditation Guidelines.

Now that I have my own place I can hold one-day retreats every other Saturday, subject to demand. You will need to bring your own packed lunch or buy a takeaway from one of the local fast-food outlets.

Experience shows that a full day of continuous meditation practice is enough to gain fairly deep concentration. It provides a useful introduction to intensive meditation practice before embarking on a ten-day retreat.

You need to inform me if you intend to come as I have limited space. The schedule above shows the number of free places remaining for each date.
