Non-Residential Retreats
Online Retreats:
Through Zoom, you can still enjoy the benefits of practicing with others, and members of the community continue to praise this powerful way to connect with our community. Below you will find a number of opportunities for slowing down, reflection, refuge, calm, and connection. Check out our online non-residential retreats in multi-day or just one-day.
In-Person Retreats:
In keeping with the principals of the dharma that underlies all of our activities, primarily non-harming, we are requiring that all attendees be fully vaccinated in order to attend any in-person event. If you certify that you meet this requirement please select ‘yes’ on the registration page. Check our our in-person non-residential in multi-day or just one day as well as our in-person overnight residential retreats.
