Description
Join us for a Daylong Retreat. We will come together to deepen our practice and cultivate mindfulness. The theme for this retreat will be announced closer to the date, but registration is already open. This retreat will include sitting and walking meditation, Dhamma talks, and time for sharing and questions. Everyone is welcome, no prior meditation experience needed. For those new to meditation we do ask that you watch the series of four videos on the page for beginners.

During the retreat we will be in “noble silence.” This means that we won’t be talking to each other (except during designated times). We will also turn off our phones and other devices. This is all in order to minimize external distractions, promote mindfulness and inner stillness, and respect the practice of fellow meditators.

After the Daylong Retreat there is an optional social gathering from 4:30 – 5:15 PM, some snacks are provided.
