Weaving the Dharma into Our Lives
A 9-day Non-Residential "Retreat" with Brian Lesage
Friday, Jan 25 - Saturday, Feb 2, 2019

Registration is now open for this wonderful opportunity to have regular teachings and guidance from Brian for 9 days. Here are the details:

Our aspirations and spiritual practices can often feel removed from the hustle and bustle of the day-to-day unfolding of our lives. This discussion and practice residency provides an opportunity to address this by creating the conditions for intentionally weaving the threads of spiritual practice into our moment to moment awareness throughout the day. We will begin with a weekend retreat followed by daily gatherings and teachings to support this interweaving.  The residency will end with a day-long retreat to keep the process going.

Priority registration will be given to those who register for the entire program.
Please note: this retreat is in lieu of our traditional Spring Retreat.
