Weekend Sesshin

Two-Day Meditation Retreat

March 22-24, 2024 | 7pm Friday - 12pm Sunday MT

A two-plus-day meditation retreat is a wonderful opportunity to deepen our practice and support one another in community. We will sit together, do walking meditation, work practice, appreciate a dharma talk, and share chant service. Dokusan, or private interview, with the teacher will also be available.

We will gather and practice together at the beautiful Willow Farm Contemplative Center in Longmont, CO. Everyone is welcome.
