A Mindfulness Weekend Retreat with Ajahn Jutindharo

Saturday 7th September – Sunday 8th September 2024

At Whirlow Spirituality Centre

Whirlow Grange Close, Sheffield,

S11 9SY

About the retreat

The practice will be rooted in sitting/stillness and walking/movement meditation with an emphasis on mindfulness of body and breath. Ajahn Jutindharo encourages a gentle and relaxed approach so that we don’t become goal-oriented and rigid in our practice. He also likes to explore how we can bring more awareness to everyday and commonplace situations so that we experience more adaptability and ease. Come prepared for some of what you expect and maybe something different too.

About the teacher

Ajahn Jutindharo has practised and taught meditation for many years, grounded in the Buddha’s teaching of the Four Foundations of Mindfulness, with a particular emphasis on body awareness. In recent years he has explored approaches to mindful movement: Amerta movement, focusing on the body in movement in the environment, and Move into Life, the art of being in movement. Both approaches, as with some others, can help to lessen habits and patterns, and hence the sense of identification.

Ajahn Jutindharo joined a Buddhist monastic order in 1987. His monastic life has been spent primarily in Britain,with short periods in Asia. Since 2007 he has been the senior incumbent at the Hartridge Monastery in Devon.

There are a few talks by Ajahn Jutindharo on Dharmaseed if you would like to listen!
