One-day At-home Working Meditation Retreats
Guided by the Monks

When: Saturday, March 27, 2010, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM (Pacific time)

After getting this enthusiastic feedback, we decided to make these retreats a regular part of our schedule in the new year.

“FANTASTIC !!!! I’m so grateful that you all had the idea and that you made it possible to happen as a Sangha opportunity. I felt so connected to the group, especially powerful when we were all together in silence in meditation. My heart overflows when I think of it. I hope it will be possible for these At-Home Meditation Days to occur on a regular basis, say, every couple of months?”

“I didn’t have the chance to say this live ... so I wanted to make sure I expressed my gratitude to all of you. THANK YOU!!!! The biggest thing I got out of the day was that I feel so well taken care of and supported. Both internally ... and externally. I LOVED meditating with everyone; the energy was palpable.”

Workshop Description: Are you ready and willing for a day of supported practice at home and the chance to do some of those tasks that you never seem to have time for? It doesn’t get any better!

Retreatants will join with the monks first thing in the morning via conference call for a half-hour sitting meditation and an orientation to working meditation as it is done at the Zen Monastery Peace Center. When the work period begins, retreatants will work on their own, doing a project of their choice in their home. Could be washing windows, shampooing carpets, bathing pets, painting a room, getting current on all your correspondence, writing the short story you’ve been putting off, starting seeds in the greenhouse, baking for the holidays….whatever suggests itself.

We’ll check in at mid-day to see how it’s going and to prepare for the afternoon work period. Telephone guidance sessions with monks will be scheduled throughout the day. The day will end with a conference call group discussion.

Give yourself this gift of support for compassion and awareness!
