DESCRIPTION

Gathering as Sangha to ring in the New Year has been a tradition for as long as we have been practicing together. 

The New Year's Retreat will assist us to end one year the way we hope to be in the coming year. Guided meditation, virtual live yoga practice, evening workshops, and guidance with Cheri are offered. Please note that since there is no limit to the number of people who can sign up, guidance appointments with Cheri will be limited and by lottery.

The timing of activities may not work optimally for everyone, but we encourage an attitude of mind to make it work for you. We will be together for all groups, even if different coasts are following different schedules.

We encourage you to create a retreat environment for yourself. This may be in your home or in a location where you can retreat in silence and solitude
