7-Days Of Mindfulness Meditation

Join us for this 7-day mindfulness meditation retreat at the beautiful Zusters van Denekamp in The Netherlands near the German border. The Denenkamp monastery is just the right setting for spending 7 days in noble silence and contemplation, creating the perfect conditions for deep contemplation and the development of insight.

Meditation Guidance With Miles Kessler

Miles Kessler will be your guide for this retreat. Miles has years of experience both sitting on intensive retreats himself, as well as guiding meditators on their retreats. He will be giving daily inspiring meditation talks, practical instructions to apply directly to your meditation, meditation Q&A sessions, as well as the daily meditation interview.

Daily Meditation Interviews

To support your practice you will receive regular meditation interviews with Miles. In these 1-on-1 interviews, Miles will help you to clarify any confusion in your practice, stabilize your current meditative states, and give you precise instructions to help you move forward in your meditation.

Sangha: Meditation Community Support

When you join this retreat you will be part of a community of sincere practitioners who will both challenge and support you in your practice. By sitting in a container of communal silence, mindfulness, and contemplation, you will discover spiritual intimacy and the power of collective practice.
"A community of spiritual friends and companions is the entirety of the spiritual life." - The Buddha

A Personal Invitation From Miles

 

"As we gradually come out of our collective pandemic, it feels good to be moving offline and back to meeting you all once again at in-person events.

As such I am extremely happy to announce a 7-Day Mindfulness Meditation Retreat that I will be leading at the beautiful "Zusters van Denekamp" monastery in The Netherlands.

The past few years have shown that having the opportunity to retreat from our daily lives and spend time in personal contemplation in a supportive environment is not a given.


Being able to go on retreat is a rare and precious opportunity that takes unique internal and external conditions and resources.


You are invited to join me in this 7-day silent meditation retreat where together with a supportive community you will be able to reconnect to yourself, awaken insight, and deepen your practice.


So if this invitation speaks to you then it would be my honor to be your guide for this 7-day mindfulness meditation retreat.


With Love,

Miles Kessler
