All practitioners receive individual meditation instructions.
During the retreat, the four foundations of mindfulness (contemplation of the body, feelings, mind, and mental objects) are practiced, whereby all arising phenomena should be mentally noted. Initially, the primary meditation object while sitting is the rising and falling of the abdomen, and while walking, the movement of the foot.
Each meditation period begins with a mindful prostration, followed by walking meditation and then a sitting period. Walking and sitting meditation have the same duration.
Beginners start with 10 minutes and gradually increase up to one hour.
