Weekend Meditation Retreat
The Art of Being Human: Shambhala Training Level 1

You don’t need to be a monk, a mystic, or a “calm person” to meditate.
You just need a willingness to sit down and explore your own mind.

Meditation is not about becoming someone different—it’s about becoming more fully yourself.

Shambhala Training offers a practical, secular path to uncovering your natural confidence, openness, and courage. Through meditation practice and the teachings of Shambhala Warriorship, you’ll discover how gentleness and fearlessness can go hand in hand—both on the cushion and in everyday life.

This first-level weekend retreat includes:

- Clear meditation instruction and practice

- Teachings on being present with yourself and others

- Individual meetings with meditation instructors

- Group dialogue and community connection

Whether you’re brand new to meditation or a longtime practitioner, this retreat will help you deepen awareness and bring mindfulness into daily living.

📅 Saturday, October 11 | 8:30 AM–5:00 PM
📅 Sunday, October 12 | 9:00 AM–2:00 PM
📍 Austin Shambhala Meditation Center

You could be in perfect health, without any worldly problems, and find yourself in a retreat hut in the most conducive environment, surrounded by blessed objects and inspiring practitioners, and have access to a great master with the purest dharma, but you still are the one who has to push yourself, as none of these things can practice for you.
