GMIND 6057 Meditation Retreat: Toward Insight Concentration and Wisdom

At the center of this course is a 5-8 day silent retreat intended to systematically deepen students' practice of meditation. The retreat builds on the meditation practice undertaken in GMIND 6042 Mindfulness: Theory, Practice, and Science. Students engage in analysis of, and critical reflection upon oral and written mindfulness teachings, synthesizing these with the development of their own formal meditation practice and practice in daily life for the betterment of self and others.
