Illawarra Daylong Retreat – Govinda Valley Retreat Center Oct 2026

Finding an Inner Stillness – The art of mindful living

A Day of Mindfulness Meditation

Join meditation teacher, Grahame White for a one-day insight and mindfulness meditation practice day at the beautiful Govinda Valley Retreat Centre in Stanwell Tops, NSW.

Practicing Vipassana meditation is perhaps the greatest gift we can give to ourselves and others. Vipassana is concerned primarily with the cultivation of awareness and understanding. Awareness so that we can see our minds more clearly and Understanding so that we can know what is useful and what is not for experiencing a deep harmonious relationship with ourselves and the world.

The secret of success in meditation practice is in continuity. Throughout the day there will be periods of  sitting and walking meditation followed by a Q&A and discussion about strategies for the integration of mindfulness in daily life. The course is suitable for beginners and also those with past experience in insight and mindfulness meditation practices.
