Details: Upcoming Half Day Retreats
Do you appreciate practice on Tuesdays? You can deepen practice during a Zen retreat. Retreats have a multiplicative effect, where combined sitting periods build on one another.
How do retreats work? They include:
Multiple 25 minute sitting practice periods
Each sitting period is alternated with walking practice for a break
There is optional koan practice with the teacher
Plus a bit of Zen chanting and group discussion
No special preparation or experience is needed for these retreats. Just show up! In fact, they can be a great way to dive into practice for relatively new practitioners.
Upcoming retreats occur Saturdays May 23 and July 18.
Register here for either of those dates (you can add dates later)
