Retreat Description
This residential retreat is sponsored by Bellingham Insight Meditation Society (BIMS) and will be held at a rural retreat center south of Bellingham. The retreat location is on the water and has extensive grounds for walking. All registrants will have a cabin to themselves. There will be three simple vegetarian meals a day.
In this retreat we will explore how these seven friends–the seven factors of awakening–can develop in our practice and support our mind to find a deep balance between ease and energy. These seven factors are beautiful qualities of the mind that are innate potentials in all of us. When developed, they lead to awakening; they are also characteristics of the awakened mind. This retreat will follow the traditional insight schedule of sitting meditation and walking meditation, dharma talks, and practice discussions with the teacher.
