iRest Meditation Retreat: Advanced
July 16–26, 2019
San Rafael, CA
Description
This is Richard Miller's premier and most advanced retreat of the year. Developed for meditators with the most experience and practice, Richard personally selects each participant based on their integration of the foundational principles of meditation. Please expect 10 days of silence and disciplined commitment to the inward process of integrating meditation into all aspects of daily life.
If you would like to be considered for this event kindly submit a short summary of your meditation experience including prior events and duration to events@irest.us. Richard will review your record and may contact you for more information. If you've already contacted us regarding your interest in attending no action is required on your part, your record is already under consideration.
At iRest Institute our mission is to provide the appropriate conditions to foster the integration of meditation into your way of life. If interested in a retreat with Richard but still needing to develop your practice we'd like to suggest you attend one of our other meditation retreats. These will develop your practice and support integration of the core foundations of meditation before attending an advanced event. In particular, we'd like to guide you towards our retreats April 14-20, 2019 in Sydney, Australia, May 14-19, 2019 in Encinitas, CA, and October 17-23, 2019 in Calgary, Canada. For additional options you can view a full list of all our retreats.
