Ajahn Chah had a way of making the whole path feel available right now. Not someday, not after years of practice. Just: how much are you willing to release in this moment?

The Dharma of Recovery ๐ŸŒฟ
A Two-Day Non-Residential Retreat
Saturday & Sunday, June 6 & 7 | 10am to 4:30pm
With Kevin Griffin and Karson Koshin

The Four Noble Truths begin with the truth of suffering. Recovery begins there too.

Join Kevin Griffin and Karson Koshin for a weekend retreat exploring how the Buddhaโ€™s core teachings speak directly to the suffering of addiction and the possibility of freedom. Through dharma talks, meditation, reflection, and group inquiry, weโ€™ll investigate craving, suffering, ethical living, healing, and awakening as they unfold in recovery.

This retreat is open to anyone interested in bringing Buddhist wisdom and practice to the path of recovery. Come for one day or the full weekend.

Monday Night Sangha ๐ŸŒฟ
May 25 | 6โ€“7:30pm
With guest teacher Dennis Warren

Equanimity is one of the most important qualities in Buddhist practice. It is also one of the most misunderstood.

Is it distance? Detachment? A kind of spiritual numbness? Dennis Warren joins us this Monday to explore what equanimity actually is, and the unique form of happiness that comes with it. Not a retreat from life, but a way of meeting it fully, without being swept away.

Guiding teacher Adam Stonebraker will be in person this week. Come join us.

All are welcome. Come early for tea and community.

Some practices are simple enough to begin today. This is one of them.

Muditฤ isnโ€™t a feeling we wait for. Itโ€™s something we can consciously cultivate, moment by moment, beauty by beauty, until the boundary between our own joy and the joy of others starts to feel less solid.

Muditฤ in the deeper sense doesnโ€™t require an object at all. It is the natural brightness of awareness when the heart is not contracted around lack.

This is what our practice continues pointing toward. Not a feeling we generate, but one we uncover when the clinging stops.

Monday Night Sangha ๐ŸŒฟ
May 18 | 6โ€“7:30pm
With guest teacher Maeve Hassett

Not striving. Not forcing. Not giving up. Just this: a willingness to meet what is here.

Maeve Hassett joins us this Monday to explore willingness as a practice and a way of being. What opens in us when we stop demanding that things be different, and simply turn toward what is?

All are welcome. Come early for tea and community.
