Meditation is a dance with the hope and fear that life sends us, rather than a fruitless battle to get rid of them. This weekend of talks, discussion, guided meditation, poetry, and interviews explores this dance.

Explore the conditions of body that naturally catalyze the ever deepening process of meditational inquiry. In support of the deeply body-focused nature of the practice, participants will receive a session of deep bodywork every other day.

Summer Meditation Intensive offers beginning and experienced meditators challenging practice in a retreat setting. Participants receive instruction in mindfulness-awareness, including somatic practices, and cultivate the capacity to open to reality.

This retreat offers new and returning students an introduction and immersion into the view, practice, and result of the Vajrayana according to the teachings of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche.

Created for meditators of all levels, this in-depth training focuses on a series of powerful “body-based awareness” exercises drawn from Tibetan Yoga, with two residential retreats and a five month, at-home curriculum.
