Zen Temple Kyoto Retreat.
The Sound of the Koan (2023). Yearly
Different ways of engaging with self – therapy, meditation, study, movement – have helped me over the years to be better resourced and thus more resilient. Storms are certain, difficulties are inevitable. As human beings, there is the certainty of suffering.
This retreat is a space for study. Of the self. Of the koan. Of what remains when words are not enough. 3 nights, live within the rhythms of a working temple: early bells, seated silence, mindful work, formal meals shared in silence and the delicate art of self-inquiry.
