One Day Mini-retreat

Some of our regular members have asked for us to create a way to facilitate deeper practice. In response, we have decided to re-instate our day-long monthly mini-retreats. Join us this Saturday July 3 from 9 am to 4 pm for all day or as much as you can for a chance to deepen your practice for our first mini-retreat.

During the retreat, there will be areas reserved for various types of meditation practice:

  • Silent sitting meditation
  • Prostrations
  • Chanting

There will be a break for lunch. You can enjoy your bag-lunch at the center or get something at a local restaurant. The suggested donation for the mini-retreat is $15 for half the day or $25 for the full day. We hope you can join us. Please email or call the center for more information.
