An immersive introduction to how we teach the jhanas.
This day-long retreat is an immersive introduction to learning the foundational skills of jhana practice. It’s the same practice that’s at the heart of our seven-day retreats.
If you’ve been curious about the jhanas, this is a great place to start. You’ll learn how to meet difficult emotions with curiosity instead of avoidance and how to access greater enjoyment, love, and peace on demand.

Who it’s for
Open to anyone with a sincere interest.
No particular meditation background is required. We feel it would be a good fit for you if you:
- Are curious about jhana and want to experience the approach before considering a longer retreat
- Have some meditation experience but are looking for new ways to enliven or add “juice” to your practice
- Are an experienced meditator who wants to try out a unique approach to jhana meditation
The day is experiential, so the only real requirement is 8 hours of your time.
