Please join Matthew Daniell, guiding teacher of North Shore Insight Meditation Center, for a half-day meditation program in Salisbury, Mass.In the Buddha’s foundational mindfulness practices, we use awareness of the senses, body, breath, thoughts, emotions, and change. These intentional mindfulness practices help us to reduce stress, have a more skillful, kind relationship to our thoughts and emotions, and live in a more connected and fresh way. All of these are cultivated in meditation practices. Open awareness has more to do with simply recognizing and resting in the knowing quality of our being. It is natural, uncultivated, spacious, and inclusive. In this retreat we will explore how together, these two distinct meditative approaches – mindfulness and open awareness – can help us to live with more calm, kindness, and open-hearted clarity in the face of challenges on and off the cushion.
This retreat will consist of guided and silent meditation periods, reflection, and discussion. Complete beginners and a seasoned meditators alike are welcome to attend.
Matthew Daniell has been practicing Buddhist meditation since the 1980s, including over a decade in Asia, where he practiced Zen intensively in Japan, Tibetan Buddhism in India, and Insight meditation in Burma, India, and Thailand.
