14 Day Retreat at Clarinbridge 


14 Day Insight Meditation Retreat

with Nick Scott and Padriag Cotter 

Saturday 25th January to Saturday 8th February 2025


This is an opportunity for those who have already done several ten day retreats to deepen their practice by taking part in a longer retreat. It is deliberately being held in winter when the surrounding woodland at Kilkuan Retreat Centre in Clarinbridge is quiet and least exciting. Each of the 16 participants will get their own en suite room. The teachers will take it in turns to lead the retreat, providing daily reflections and meditation guidance that will assume the foundations are already there. There will also be one to one interviews with the teachers.   

Registration for this retreat will be from 10am on the first Saturday and the retreat will start at 11am. It will finish after lunch at 1pm on the last Saturday. You have to attend the whole retreat.
