Advanced Meditation Retreat with Annie Stoker

The Advanced Meditation Retreat with Annie Stoker is a meditation retreat at EarthSpirit Centre in Compton Dundon, Somerset. As the name says, it is pitched at people who already have some meditation experience and want to go further in a dedicated retreat setting, with Annie Stoker leading.

The Setting

EarthSpirit Centre sits in the Somerset countryside at Compton Dundon, close to the Somerset Levels and within reach of Glastonbury. The centre has a main building and Little Earth, a self-contained eco centre with single, twin and triple ensuite rooms and a large, light yoga space.

Meals at the centre are vegetarian and built around fresh, home-grown and locally sourced produce, and dietary restrictions can be catered for. Retreats here often leave the afternoons open for walking in the surrounding countryside or resting, which suits a meditation retreat well.

Castle Cary is the nearest train station.

Before You Go

Because this is an advanced retreat, it makes sense to arrive with an established sitting practice and some experience of longer periods of meditation. If you are unsure whether it is the right fit, contact the centre or the teacher before you reserve a place. Comfortable, warm clothing and sturdy shoes for country walks are sensible things to pack.
