In-person: Balancing Effort and Enjoyment with Jill Shepherd

EVENT DESCRIPTION

This one-day workshop will focus on the balance between effort and enjoyment in insight meditation, to help refresh, renew and re-inspire your practice.

For many people, enjoyment is often less-well developed than effort – as it was for the Buddha himself, at the start of his journey to awakening – so there will be an emphasis on cultivating muditā: appreciative joy, gladness and gratitude, to bring more ease, enjoyment and balance into your meditation and your daily life.

The day will include talks, guided and silent sitting meditation, walking meditation, and some small group discussion.

Suitable for beginners as well as more experienced meditators.
