Details of this retreat

Vipassana and Eqydo - the royal art of mind

Vipassana meditation, also known as insight meditation, is an ancient technique that focuses on developing deep self-awareness and understanding of the true nature of reality.

It involves observing sensations, thoughts, and emotions in a non-reactive way, fostering clarity and mindfulness. By practicing Vipassana, individuals aim to see things as they truly are, gaining insight into impermanence, suffering, and the nature of the mind, ultimately leading to inner peace and liberation from mental conditioning.

It’s often practiced in silence and emphasizes mindfulness of breathing and bodily sensations.

Eqydo is a practice that has gained increasing popularity in recent years as people have become more interested in improving their mental health and well-being.

The practice of Eqydo involves paying attention to one's thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations in the present moment without judgment or distraction.

This practice can be applied in many different ways, including through meditation, breathing techniques, or simply by being present and aware in everyday activities.
