zen meditation retreat (friday july 30 to sunday august 1)

Meditate silently, cultivating stillness and balance, cessation and harmlessness. This is a great opportunity to let go of some stress and reconfigure.  While the main emphasis of this retreat is placed on the both seated and walking silent meditation, there will also be:

• background methodology
• Instruction
• dialogue

This retreat isn't "religious" in that Zen Buddhism isn't being taught.  However, because Zen meditation comes directly from this religious tradition, it will be taught with reference to the tradition and lineage of Buddhism of its facilitator, Wayne Codling.

Please note that incense will be used throughout the retreat weekend.
