Hosting Your First Mindfulness Retreat, with Cory Muscara

Mindfulness retreats are a valuable opportunity to step away from routine and apply ourselves to deepening our mindfulness. We may devote a single day or multiple days to retreat, either at home or at a retreat center. Meditation teachers who have completed retreats of their own know full well the benefits of such focused attention on their practice. However, the thought of guiding others through this intimate, intense experience can be intimidating. In this episode, we hear from meditation teacher and retreat leader Cory Muscara. Cory offers practical advice on leading meditation retreats and explains why it’s far more accessible than some mindfulness teachers may think. This talk is a brief excerpt from Cory Muscara’s guest teacher presentation to those enrolled in the Mindfulness Exercises Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program. This unique, online, self-paced certification program balances pre-recorded webinars with live mentorship. Students in the program learn directly from Sean Fargo, his team, and some of the world’s most respected mindfulness and meditation experts. Train to share mindfulness with confidence, compassion and skill within a supportive online community.
