BUDDHIST MEDITATION & YOGA RETREAT
With Pema
January 17 - 23, 2025
Embark on a profound exploration of the Buddhist path through this immersive retreat, with a structured program combining Samatha and Vipassana meditation classes, Q&A sessions, silent meditation times, and yoga. Guests will observe silence except during classes and the designated free time from 2pm to 5pm. For those who wish to be in full silence for the entire week, it’s also possible.
Under the expert guidance of Pema, the founder of La Casa de Loto, and our dedicated team of experienced mindfulness and yoga teachers, this retreat provides a profound opportunity for personal growth and spiritual development through the precise teachings of Calm Abiding and Insight meditation from the Dudjom Tersar lineage of Tibetan Buddhism.
If you’re new to meditation but feel drawn to this path, we invite you to schedule a short call with us to explore if this retreat would be the right pick for you.
