What To Bring
The
following items will increase your personal comfort
while meditating:
- A blanket and/or meditation shawl.
- Padding for the floor. Many people also bring
pillows.
- Back support, such as a backjack.
Meditation
shawls will be available if you would like
to purchase them at the retreat. Chairs are provided
by the facility, but we do ask that the people
who use them sit toward the back or sides of the
room to keep from blocking the view of the other
participants. |
