The Craft of Meditation
a workshop/retreat with
Winnie Nazarko
The Sisterhood of Saint John Divine Guesthouse
233 Cummer Avenue, Toronto, Ontario
Friday, June 15 to Wednesday, June 20, 2012
The Craft of Meditation
Meditation is a simple undertaking, but it can seem surprisingly difficult just to pay attention to the
present moment. Relaxation is key, and so is alertness. Learning how to bring these two factors
together - and how to practice with the full range of states which may arise – is the art.
This workshop/retreat is for people who are looking for some detailed meditation practice instruction
and coaching. We will discuss common challenges which arise in practice (commonly known as “the
hindrances to concentration”), and how to work with them. We will also touch on how to skillfully
frame our expectations and motivations, so they support and empower our effort.
If you have a regular mindfulness meditation practice, and have done at least a five day residential
meditation retreat, you may find the coaching and context provided in this workshop just what you
need to proceed in your home practice with confidence.
