SUMMARY:Meditation Retreat in Santa Rosa\, CA with Shaila Catherine and Ann Dillon
DESCRIPTION:An Intensive Concentration and Insight Retreat\nTHIS RETREAT HAS FILLED. REGISTRATION HAS CLOSED.  \nIn 2018 we will offer two retreats in California: April 5-15\, and September 27 – October 4. Information will be posted soon to this website for advanced registration.  \nwith Shaila Catherine and Ann Dillon\nJune 15 – 25\, 2017 \n  \nThursday\, June 15\, 2017 – Sunday\, June 25\, 2017. \nThe retreat begins with registration at 1:00 pm on June 15; it ends at 11:30 am on June 25. Early arrivals can be arranged for Wednesday evening June 14. \nPartial attendance can be arranged\, but it must begin on the first day of the retreat. \nThe teachings on this retreat will be structured to support the development of concentration\, mindfulness\, and insight. The daily group instruction sessions will introduce mindfulness with breathing as a concentration practice\, and will systematically develop the skills that lead to the deep absorption states of jhana. This retreat is an ideal opportunity to train in concentration and jhana practices with personal guidance from Shaila Catherine. It is the one retreat each year that Shaila emphasizes concentration and jhana\, and systematically guides students through this powerful training method. Students who wish to embark on this training in concentration and jhana should read her book\, Focused and Fearless\, prior to the retreat. Click on our Concentration and Jhana FAQ page for more information about studying jhana and concentration with Shaila. \nJhana instructions will be offered\, but this retreat is not limited to the training in concentration and jhana; students who want to practice mindfulness or metta without an emphasis on concentration are most welcome. Teachings will explore a range of subjects to support the growth of wisdom and cultivate conditions conducive for insight. \nWith single rooms for everyone\, the facilities can support a range of practice approaches. The approach to teaching is flexible enough to nurture a broad development of practices that are appropriate to the individual meditator. Guided by group and individual meetings with the teachers\, students may work with a variety of meditative approaches to progress in a manner and pace appropriate to their individual needs. Students who are not inclined toward concentration or jhana may choose to emphasize mindfulness\, insight\, and loving kindness practices. As the retreat progresses\, some students may practice mindfulness of the body to enhance calm and presence; some students may intensify concentration to unify consciousness through the deep absorptions called jhana; some students may cultivate loving kindness and open the heart to the precious fragility of life; and other students may nurture insight into the functioning of perception and the nature of mind. \nThis silent retreat is structured with alternating periods of sitting and walking meditation\, dhamma teachings\, question and answer sessions\, and teacher consultations. \nRegister early! Space is limited.\nWe keep this retreat small (approximately 35 participants and 2 teachers) to enable in-depth one-to-one guidance. It is a powerful and intimate environment for deep meditation practice—very suitable for dedicated practitioners and an ideal introduction to jhana practices. \nTO REGISTER: Download and complete the AC2017 registration and waiver forms\, enclose a non-refundable deposit of $250 (payable to Bodhi-Retreats)\, and return via email and/or postal mail to: \nKatrina Bergbauer\n225 Second Avenue\nDecatur\, GA 30030 \nretreats \n\nForm-Fillable PDF Registration Form – AC2017\nStandard Printable Registration Form – AC2017\nWaiver of Liability – AC2017\n\nThe 10-day retreat is designed for experienced students. Previous retreat experience in the insight meditation tradition is required\, with a minimum of at least one week-long silent residential retreat. If you have less than one week-long silent retreat experience\, your attendance requires approval from the teacher(s). \nThe retreat facility is handicapped accessible.

The estimated actual per-person cost for this retreat (if we used a fixed rate) is $1500. By selecting an amount above $1500\, your generosity supports those who need to select a lower rate to attend the retreat.
