One-day mindfulness retreat
11 November 2023 at 10:00 to 16:00
A one-day mindfulness retreat is an important part of the eight-week mindfulness course. It offers an opportunity to extend your practice, within a supportive environment.
Content of the day
The day will be facilitated by the Sussex Mindfulness Centre’s experienced teachers and will include a series of different mindfulness and compassion practices. It will be held mostly in silence as a way of supporting your practice. We will aim to provide tea and coffee, but please bring your own food for lunch. There will be chairs and maybe some cushions, but please bring what you need to be comfortable, if you can.
