‘Meditations to make our life happy and meaningful’

Start the New Year with a week of meditation and reflection designed to increase our inner peace, our good heart, our concentration and wisdom.

In this retreat, we will engage in the full cycle of ‘lamrim’ meditations explained in the New Meditation Handbook, in this way we can gain confidence to begin or deepen our own daily practice and learn valuable methods for maintaining a happy, peaceful mind no matter what life throws at us.

In each session, there will be a brief teaching and guided meditation. Between sessions people can relax and read or walk outside around Akerhus Festning or by the fjord.

Everyone is welcome to attend however many sessions they can. Newcomers will benefit as well and as each session is on a different topic, it is possible to attend a session at any point in the retreat.
