“The practice I speak of is not meditation. It is simply the dharma gate of repose and bliss…It is the manifestation of ultimate reality…Once its heart is grasped, you are like a dragon when he gains the water, like a tiger when she enters the mountains.”
–Dogen
In our world of busyness, of more/faster/better, this one-day retreat offers time to stop, reflect, and renew. We will explore the practices of effort and effortless as a path to well-being and “stepping into your life.”
Together we’ll follow a gentle schedule of sitting and walking meditation, a talk, and some discussion. No prior meditation experience is necessary; this retreat is also for those looking to renew or deepen an existing meditation and mindfulness practice.
A vegetarian lunch will be served.
