For meditators who have some prior experience of Vipassana meditation. Registration is required. The sessions will be guided by Aad Verboom.

The weekend will be physical.

• Venue is again Studio da Vasco, Vasco da Gamastraat 10 – Amsterdam.  More info on Corona-safety will follow.

This weekend offers the opportunity to practice intensively in order to purify your mind and look deeply within yourself to acquire new insights. The practice will consist primarily of sitting and walking meditation. After the meditation sessions, there will be ample time to evaluate and discuss how your personal experience compares with theory.

Combining practice with discussions will help you develop a better understanding of what mindfulness is and what it can bring to your formal practice and daily life.
