The Buddha taught that the key to peace, joy and happiness is release: a state of mind and heart not driven by a relentless insistence that life, in this moment, be other than it is.  This capacity for freedom is available to each of us in every moment but it is often obscured by our agitated minds and our wounded hearts.  In this retreat, we will combine the steady focused attention of Vipassana meditation with the relational approach of Insight Dialogue to the depths of this fundamental teaching on suffering, its causes and its release. 

Insight dialogue is an interpersonal meditation form based in Vipassana. In Insight Dialogue practice we extend our solitary meditation into a meditation of speaking and listening in contemplation with others. As we practice together, we will touch directly into an embodied sense of greater empowerment and ease as we see and experience more clearly how the cycle of suffering works in our lives and how it can be released.
