Hi Lyn,
I have been meditating for seven years. I learned Vipassana as taught by S.N. Goenka (in the Tradition of Sayagyi U Ba Khin) during a ten-day silent retreat at Dhamma Palava in Poland. Since then, I have practised daily, usually twice a day. I have also attended another retreat and am planning my next one. Goenka’s technique is rooted in the traditional teachings of the Buddha. It is non-religious, universal, and focused on liberation from suffering.
There are over 200 locations worldwide that offer instruction in this tradition.
For those looking to grasp the basics, there are several apps available. I have tried many, but one truly stands out: Waking Up. This app teaches a combination of different techniques and provides numerous additional insights. It is a genuine marvel.
With metta.
