Meditation Retreat

from £252.00

Complete Carefree Acceptance: An openness to all situations without limit

This retreat has already taken place. We will add details for the 2027 retreat as soon as they are available.

Dates: Friday 29th May – Friday 5th June 2026

Led by: Sraddhatara, Silabodhi and Tejapushpa

Price: £330 waged; £252 unwaged

(See bursary fund if you cannot afford these prices or would like to make a donation.)

A week of meditation and living a simple life outdoors and in nature. We combine both ‘knowing’ and ‘paying attention’ through form and formless meditation, with a strong emphasis on the body. This is a natural, non-contrived approach to keeping on relaxing and opening up to our natural process, or true nature. Trusting in the process and getting out of the way to let it flow freely and happily.

By investigating deeply the ways we cause our suffering through grasping after permanence, satisfaction and substantiality, may we emerge into the three liberations of emptiness, signlessness, and aimlessness.

To support the sense of a retreat community we will build we expect all retreatants to arrive on the Friday afternoon or early evening and leave after lunch on the final day. If you have exceptional circumstances which mean you may not be able to do this, please contact the team before you book so we can discuss how this will impact on the retreat community and work out whether we are able to accommodate this.

This retreat is open to all adults who have been meditating for at least a year and are familiar with Triratna Buddhist community practices.

If you’re having issues trying to book, please contact us and we’ll make alternative arrangements.
