All Day

Price: $175 - $799

Santa Fe, NM (See description for specific location.)


Location: Mountain Cloud Zen Center, 7241 Old Santa Fe Trail, Santa Fe, NM

Join Mountain Cloud Zen Center for this annual spring retreat (sesshin), online or in-person. Find refuge in shared silence in order to face the challenges of our world with greater clarity and peace.

As Guiding Teacher Valerie Forstman shares, we gather in shared silence to rest in things just as they are and to explore the vast and uncompromising wholeness that is our true home.

The retreat includes:

– Extended periods of sitting and walking meditation

– The profound silence and stillness of the age-old sesshin format

– The deep container provided by Sanbozen Associate Master Valerie Forstman

– Dokusan (one-on-one interviews) conducted in person by Valerie and online by Zen Teacher Carolyn Seburn

– Q&A sessions with Assistant Sanbozen Teachers Shana Smith and Scott Thornton

– 3 meals per day and tea
