Seminars & Workshops

Our resident teachers lead various dharma seminars through the year, often as a 3-6 week series during our regular weekly practice on Wednesday evenings. Our practice leaders lead Introduction to Zen sessions usually on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.

Workshops are daylong events which use a more informal format to explore themes of applied meditation practice. Some recent workshop topics include:

  • Mindful Eating

  • Having Enough, Doing Enough, Being Enough

  • Transforming the Inner Critic

  • Finding the One Who is Not Busy
