Anger, jealousy and other emotions can either trap us in struggle or open us to the direct experience of awakening. This retreat will offer techniques to expose the core belief structures that perpetuate emotional confusion and meditation practices that lead to the development of insight. These practices will reveal how even the most painful emotions can be the basis for developing compassion for ourselves and others, and give us glimpses of the pure energy that is the essence of emotion.
Prerequisite: Prior meditation retreat experience
Note: The dates of this program have changed since publication of our 2008 Spring/Summer catalogue.
