We’re offering the opportunity to dive deeply into individual practice in the supportive environment of Wonderwell during deep winter in rural New Hampshire.
Our schedule will include two guided meditation sessions per day and at least one individual dharma conversation with the guiding teachers during one’s stay. (More conversations if the stay is longer than 5 days.)
Participants will have access to the meditation hall as well as their private rooms for practice. There will be three simple, delicious vegetarian meals per day, and participants will be given yogi jobs, mostly to help with meal cleanup. Upon departure, each retreatant will prepare/clean their room and bathroom in preparation for the next retreatant.
ROOMS FOR THE WINTER MEDITATION INTENSIVE
All rooms are private except for the dorms, but you will not have a choice of ensuite or hall bathroom. Please email the registrar if you require an ensuite bathroom for medical reasons.
Couples or friends may share a room if they wish. Please register only one person and then email to make arrangements for registering the second person.
