Mindfulness Master Class 2022 The Retreats
Mindfulness Master Class
~The Retreats~
Going on retreat is a critical aspect of developing your mind.
Master Class participants are strongly encouraged to participate in at least one retreat with The Mindful Center during their program, and for those wishing to teach mindfulness, there are options to facilitate certain workshops/ experiences while on retreat.

Feeling any eco-anxiety about climate change? We know we do. So we are organizing an Earth Day Meditation Retreat, which includes meditation teachings, silent and guided practice + opportunities to replant Ghost Ranch with indigenous vegetation, removal of invasive brush, + prayers and ceremonies to help save our planet through meditation + action.
Teaching Mindfulness Retreat

2022 Specific Dates: TBD (in October)
Costs are dependent on accommodations
*includes a 4 night stay at the Bosque Retreat Center, 10 meals, and VIP access to the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta
Few images denote freedom like that of a balloon floating effortlessly in the sky. The focus of this particular Insight retreat is freedom and how to use meditation to free yourself from old habits of mental clinging, fear, confusion, and depression. We’ll use the incredible backdrop of the largest balloon fiesta in the world to inspire our practice. Retreat includes 1 VIP ticket to the Balloon Fiesta Opening Day Ascension, + 1 ticket to Balloon Fiesta Night Glow.
International Destination Retreats
Destination: Belize
Tentative 2022 Dates: First week in December
To leave our homes and retreat to someplace beautiful is one of the gifts our meditation practice can uncover. One student said, “My friend and I decided that 2018 was better after having gone on retreat with The Mindful Center….so we booked another one with you guys, as we both had the wish to make 2019 even better. And then we even booked again in 2020.”
