Welcome to a meditation retreat for both beginners and experienced, rooted in
the wisdom and tradition of Buddhism.
​
Course instructor Marit Moan has - in addition to being a psychologist - practiced meditation within
eastern psychology (Tibetan Buddhism) since 1999, and she has formal certification as a mindfulness instructor
and meditation facilitator from 2013. Her approach is emotion-focused and experiential.
She has a particular focus on strengthening the capacity for self-compassion, self-acceptance and self-care.
