Alan Wallace visited us in January 2018 for a one-week residential retreat on “The way of Shamata: soothing the body, calming the mind, illuminating awareness”

Over fifty students mainly from Switzerland, Germany and France, but also from as far as Australia, benefited from Dr Alan Wallace’s profound meditation experience. 

Dr Wallace’s high-level energy, clarity of mind and punchy explanations were certainly an illuminating experience for participants. The retreat combined a well-balanced mix of Shamatha meditation instructions and meditation sessions. Participants were able to access Dr Wallace’s directly for personal doubts and instructions. 

It was a pure delight to welcome Alan Wallace in preparation for the five-week Cultivating Emotional Balance Teacher Training that happened a few months later.
