Buddism & Recovery Retreat

Join us for a unique meditation retreat combining traditional  Buddhist practices with recovery and Twelve Step work.  Primarily  conducted in silence, the retreat focuses on insight/mindfulness  meditation, with additional interactive exercises, lecture, and meetings  exploring ways that Buddhism and the Steps can complement each other.  Daily Qigong practice brings added benefit and energy to the retreat.

The emphasis will be on bringing mindfulness to all our activities,  whether in formal meditation, movement, speaking, listening, or eating.  Participants will practice Noble Silence outside of the  interactive exercises and 12-Step-style meetings. All recovery paths  are welcome, whether Twelve Step, Refuge Recovery, substance, process,  or relationship-oriented.

The intensive nature of the retreat allows for profound personal  openings, insight, and transformation. The support of the community  carries us through the sometimes challenging, sometimes inspiring  elements of this deep inner work.

A minimum of 30 days clean and sober is required for attendance.
