A Hybrid via Zoom of a live silent mindfulness retreat with Gill Fronsdal and Matthew Brensilver, with alternating sitting and walking meditation, instruction, dharma talks. Online Practice Discussions are with Kristin Rudestam.

This “hybrid” retreat is a “two-track” retreat: Gil Fronsdal and Matthew Brensilver will teach in person to the Residential participants at the Insight Retreat Center and simultaneously via Zoom, to the Online participants. We encourage practitioners to participate fully, understanding that sometimes exceptions may be necessary due to one’s home circumstances.
Online Retreatants will have Practice Discussions and Drop-in Groups with Kristin Rudestamn, as the Online Teacher.
There will also be spaces available for Online Auditors, (those that would like to audit online without teacher support).
