Letting Go Into Bliss (Aug 12-Oct 30) is an exploration of “jhana” — a joyful state of focused attention that can arise in meditation. We’ll be learning how to allow jhana to happen.

On this 80 day meditation event, you’ll learn to:

Notice and counteract the various ways your mind suppresses joy
Calm the mind, using a variety of techniques
Deeply relax the body, allowing physical pleasure to arise
Tap into an innate sense of joy
Develop the mind’s ability to focus undistractedly

Signing up for this event gives you access to:

Emails (roughly every other day) with practice suggestions
Access to guided meditations
Support in our online community

This event is suitable for people with an established meditation practice, including a familiarity with mindfulness of breathing and lovingkindness meditations.
