Daylong Sit / Zazenkai – Saturday August 26 2023

Join Valerie Forstman and our Sangha
for a Zazenkai on Saturday August 26, 2023
Hybrid Event

As summer comes to a close, consider attending this full day of sitting, either online or in our zendo; devote a full day to your practice. If you are new to meditation and have never done a retreat (single or multi-day), a Zazenkai is a great way to get your feet wet with longer periods of silent sitting practice. The day consists of sitting and walking meditation. One or two movement sessions, a dharmatalk from Valerie and Q&A in the afternoon.

Experienced practitioners benefit from these daylong retreats which deepen practice.  This Zazenkai will be both online and on-site. If you plan to come in person please bring your own lunch, tea will be provided.Also, be sure to read and follow our COVID-19 Protocols.

6-8am Sitting
8:45 Movement

For online participants, the retreat zoom room will open a little before 6am MT.

For all participants who don’t want to or can’t make the 6am MT start time, you may start your day with movement at 8:45am MT or sitting and a short introduction at 9am. The dharma talk will be at about 10am MT.

The dharma talk will be recorded and will be available on our YouTube Channel within two weeks.

Cost is $50 for the day, or an amount you can reasonably afford.  Your support ensures that we can continue to offer our free events and low cost retreats.
