HAPPY NEW YEAR 2025, dear friends!
Last week was a meaningful one. Itâs always rewarding to see guests benefit from their practice. When the effort is steady and intentional, the results tend to speak for themselves.
What stands out the most is when someone facing a difficult situation starts to understand how to let go of their inner struggle. Seeing them find a sense of calm and stabilityâa place to rest amidst the ups and downs of thoughts and emotionsâis powerful. Itâs in this space that they begin to recognize the transient nature of their experiences, which can help them make peace with whatâs happening in their lives.
This kind of shift often leads to a new perspective, where energy that was focused outward starts to turn inward. Itâs not about escaping challenges but understanding them in a way that brings clarity and ease.
Itâs always a privilege to witness these moments of change.
Here are a few photos from last weekâs retreat (Dec 30, 2024 - Jan 3, 2025).

Last week, we held a retreat (Dec. 2â6) with two participants who made great progress in their meditation practice. The focus was on posture, stillness, and lifestyle adjustments to support stress relief and clarity.
Despite the cloudy weather, our outdoor morning sessions in scenic locations worked well and added to the experience.

⨠New Episode Alert! â¨
Our latest podcast episode (EP. 392) is now live! This time, we dive into the two key aspects of the mind: the doer and the knower.
How often do we get caught up in the mindâs endless activity? What if we could step back and simply observe? This simple shift can bring profound clarity and freedom.

Our 2024 Chiangdao retreat was a month to remember! đż Deep meditation practice, breathtaking mountain views, the peaceful stillness of caves, and meaningful connections made this an unforgettable journey.
We balanced intensive practice with moments of exploration, enjoying delicious food, soothing hot springs, and even learning from fellow meditators in the area. The serene environment of Chiangdao offered the perfect backdrop for growth, reflection, and connection.
Check out these highlights to get a glimpse of what we were up to! Now back to our regular uploads again :)

Last week, we took a deep dive into some foundational meditation practices, and it was a powerful reminder of the value in simply being present with ourselves. Instead of avoiding or distracting from our thoughts and emotions, we focused on observing themâon noticing where our attention goes and how our minds react. This shift from being lost in experience to mindfully observing it can bring a surprising amount of clarity.
It was a small, dedicated group, and I was inspired by the curiosity and commitment each person brought to the process. Watching others put in the work to grow beyond their current patterns is always rewardingâand we were fortunate to have some great weather to support our practice!

Over the past decade the Phuket Meditation Center has established an impeccable reputation as the best destination for those wishing to learn and develop an authentic meditation practice. Our success is largely due to our lifechanging Workshops & Meditation Retreats, our Mentorship & Spiritual Counseling Program and our regular bi-weekly Free Group Meditation Sessions. All set in an oasis of peace, learning and growth, located in the relaxing south side of Phuket Island. In short we are dedicated to the art of cultivating the mind and very serious about delivering authentic instructions to all who are interested in the subject of Mindfulness and Meditation practice in Thailand.
