zazenkai-3

We are offering a Sunday of silence and stillness once a month, and the next opportunity to spend a quiet day in community is August 13, from 10 am to 4 pm.

We will meet a little before 10 am to start sitting at 10 am promptly, break at 12:20 pm for a silent lunch (please bring vegetarian food to share), and reconvene at 1:10 pm. We will offer a period of gentle stretching and yoga in the afternoon, led by one of our sangha.

Wear loose comfortable clothing.

Suggested donation £10, nobody turned away for lack of funds.
