The <a href="https://www.abva.org/">Alberta Insight Meditation Centre</a> ran a two-day non-residential retreat over the Thanksgiving long weekend, <em>Harmony in Mindfulness</em>, conducted by Ajahn Vineetha. AIM is just north of Devon, <a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/np1D7iRnK5jfw4Q97">a few minutes up the road from the U of A Botanic Garden</a>. About a 50 minute drive for me. I go out on Monday nights for the group meditation when I can, so the place is already familiar. I couldn&rsquo;t commit to the full 10-hour days this weekend, but I was able to attend the afternoon sessions on both Sunday and Monday.</p>
