Equanimity Retreat

Spirit Rock Event

Equanimity (upekkhā) is a highly-valued quality in Buddhist teachings. But what is it, and how do we cultivate it in our meditation practice? How can we access equanimity in daily
life, especially in the midst of uncertainty, fear, and sadness over the suffering in the world?

This retreat will offer instructions, talks, sitting and walking meditations, and practice discussions to support the development of equanimity in our formal practice. We can then
apply equanimity to our life off the cushion.

This retreat is silent except for teacher-led Q&A, small groups, or other practice meetings.
