The opportunity to take time out of the busyness of our contemporary lives can be an invaluable experience. We all realize the need to take a break, even knowing that our health and performance will be better for doing so, yet often one may feel at a loss with regards to how to take a conscious break, and retreat from the ways of the world if only for a while.
WELL-AWARE-NESS has responded to this need by offering both short and longer term Meditation Retreats.

During his monastic life as a Buddhist monk, John Barter (JAVANO), both participated in Meditation Retreats and also lead and taught Meditation Retreats. These included participating in a three month retreat each year, and as a senior monastic in Europe leading and teaching Meditation Retreats.

Through WELL-AWARE-NESS John now teaches several Meditation Retreats & workshops each year. These include:

• 'MINDFULNESS MEDITATION AND REFLECTIONS WORKSHOPS 2010':

a day of meditation and reflections around a chosen theme, or evening teachings held numerous times each year in Sydney at the North Sydney or Darling Point WELL-AWARE-NESS centres, also in Byron Bay and on the Gold Coast.
