Vipassana retreats are set up so that people can have few duties but to be aware of their experience moment to moment.  When removing distractions we become more familiar with the working of our minds and of the particular negative habits that create needless stress for us (worry, annoyance, dissatisfaction, unhappiness, jealousy, the inner critic, etc.)  When shining the light of awareness on these habits, they naturally recede and weaken and in their place the positive habits of mind grow (love, kindness, compassion, gratitude, happiness, self-respect and appreciation).  

Join LC and Melissa for this 7-day retreat where you will be guided in mindfulness of the mind and body and encouraged to practice being aware of all you do throughout the day.   There will be an option to take 8 precepts on this retreat.  It is not required but you are encouraged to do so.  This means not eating after lunch.

“The whole path of mindfulness is this:  whatever you are doing, be aware of it.”
-Dipa Ma

“Melissa McKay and Lien Chi “LC” Tran are two of the most experienced practitioners amongst the new generation of teachers.”
