We would like to invite you to take part in this year’s International Mindfulness Retreat in Poland “Peace in myself – Peace in the world”.

The retreat will be led by Murray Corke, a Dharma teacher in the tradition of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh from the UK. This will be his fourth retreat in Poland.

Anyone, regardless of their faith, who is seeking spiritual development and transformation and who would like to practise mindfulness is welcome to join this event. The retreat will focus on cultivating peace in ourselves and in the world in these difficult times.

The daily programme will include, among others, talks about Buddhist teachings delivered by the teacher, sitting meditation, walking meditation, physical exercise, singing, Buddhist ceremonies such as the transmission of the Five Mindfulness Trainings and Three Refuges, as well as the daily practice of mindfulness through mindful eating and tea-drinking, maintaining Noble Silence at certain times during the day, listening to the sound of the bell, and enjoying our lazy time.

We are expecting to have with us yet again a number of experienced mindfulness practitioners, including our friends from the UK and Ireland. The participants of last year’s retreat were very happy to be practising together in an international setting.

Registration will open towards the end of April or at the beginning of May, which is when we will provide you with information regarding the costs of participation and other details. At the moment, you can access information regarding the teacher, the practice, and getting to the venue of the retreat from the menu on this website. If you should have any questions at this point, please contact us at .

We are looking forward to practising together with you at the retreat!
