Developing Contentment
A Daylong Retreat
with Brian Arnell


Brian Arnell will lead a practice based on the Anapanasati Sutta, the Buddha’s teaching on the Mindfulness of In-and-Out Breathing. He will provide extensive instruction so that we are able to have a deep practice experience.


It will be so sweet to be together in practice, supporting each other as we develop the insight and clarity that brings us happiness.


Since we will be breathing together, it would be a kindness if you take a test before you come, and especially, please stay home if you have a cold, a cough, a sniffle, or anything else that would create risk of spreading illness.


What to Bring


Please consider . . .

We hope you will consider making a donation to the Fall Retreat Scholarship fund. This fund would allow Springboard to offer a limited number of partial and full scholarships for our pending Fall Retreat. Brian is declining all teacher dana in the hopes that you will contribute to this fund. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. If the cost of the Daylong is a problem for you, please contact Brian so he can register you at no charge (brian@awakenedheartproject.org)

Brian Arnell

Senior Teacher

After dabbling in meditation and Eastern religions for years, Brian began a serious practice in 1984. In 1998, he moved full-time to a retreat center in New York’s Hudson Valley and began intensive practice in the Theravada tradition. Following the instructions of his teachers to pass on what he has learned and experienced, he left the retreat center in 2006 and moved to Philadelphia. He has been teaching at Springboard since.
