At a retreat, you learn to steady yourself through all the ups and downs in your mind; how to trust your mindful loving-awareness to hold the full range of your experience; how to be present to both pleasure and pain; how to bring patience and equanimity to the intensity of body sensations, emotions and thought patterns. You learn to trust your own inner unfolding and to apply the teachings of wisdom and compassion to deepen your practice. ~ Jack Kornfield
