how do i do my meditation retreat

[Viking]

im planning tomorrow to do a 2 day meditation retreat.

im not sure how to go about doing it, i did a 10 day vipassana course but i dont want to do vipassana. i also dont have goals for this meditation retreat, is it ok? can i just meditate? 

i also want to add some contemplation and journaling time as i also want to use the clarity that meditation gives to get insights about myself.

im not sure what kind of meditation i should do, and whether i should stick to a single meditation technique or go with a few different ones. what has worked for you and how should i go about this?

 

edit: i guess the reason for my asking is that i fear i will get insanely bored and start getting restless, which will probably happen, and i dont know how to deal with that. i fear ill stop the retreat in the middle and start watching Netflix

Watch as the desire arises, as a sensation (feeling-emotion) in your body and stay with it as you surrender it.

i tried it during the vipassana retreat and it kinda worked, but it became insanely hard as the resistance continued to reappear

Be gentle with yourself. No rush, the more you do it the easier it becomes because emotional pulls dissipate.
