The Art of Meditation

A Year-long program with meditation Practice Series and three half day Refuge Retreats. The Art of Meditation Practice Series and Refuge Retreats are an opportunity for you to come home to your life, anchored in the practice of sitting meditation, the wisdom of ancient and modern teachings, and a growing community of wholehearted practitioners.

With Lisa Genki Gibson & Brooke Teisui McNamara

The Vital Way

Through our 6 weeks together, we realize & cultivate depth in self, relationship and world.

Transitioning through superficiality, efficiency and utility we recognize our ever-unfolding true nature.

Awakening as our unique expressions,we explore how we may better respond to Reality and our never-ending interplay with potentiality.

Within our training we develop and refine your skills and capacity for making increasingly more effective choices throughout your life.

Join us to explore both that which you have always been and who you’re uniquely called to become.

A Day of Zen

Join Lisa Genki Gibson Sensei and fellow practitioners to experience the potency of Zen, and the simple practice of Zazen, or seated meditation.

There is no other time than right here and now to wholeheartedly meet our lives - in all their suffering, beauty, sorrow and tenderness.

For seasoned practitioners and beginners alike, this workshop will restore our connection to ourselves, each other and the earth by simply sitting, breathing, moving and being together.
