Buddhist Meditation Retreats

In today’s fast-paced world, we often find ourselves on the run, constantly bombarded with information, living in stressful and dynamic environments, feeling too busy and off-balance. This leads to mental and emotional overload.

Have you decided to give meditation a whirl but are unsure where to start? There are numerous meditation techniques that you can try, but the abundance of information out there can seem confusing and overwhelming, especially to someone who’s just starting out. 

Our modern, fast-paced world is marred by distractions. Our mind and body constantly run a race to meet our demands and desires.

As a dedicated yogi, meditation has come up quite a bit in my practice over the years. My teacher would advocate for at least one hour of meditation time in a day. During that hour, I learned to still my mind, chant mantras, and quiet the outside world so that my inner self could emerge.
