Theme: “Dive in!”

Learning focus: In this self-retreat you can deepen mindful awareness of experience by formally cultivating mindfulness over an extended period of time. This fosters the possibility of greater self-knowledge and insight into the impermanence of pleasant and unpleasant body-mind states.

Practices: The full range of practices from prior sessions are reinforced, and two new practices are introduced — mountain meditation and loving-kindness meditation.
