Summer Practice Intensive
Settle into Summertime by deepening your practice with a small group of dedicated practitioners. Over the course of five weekly sessions, we'll focus on meditation - why we practice, what brings us back, how we practice and what we're learning. It’s a special opportunity for those wishing to deepen their connection to Sangha, our spiritual community of friends.
This monthlong Insight Meditation intensive is designed for those with established meditation practices. Each two-hour session will include 2 meditations and time to talk with each other.

Wisdom Rising: Exploring the Path of Parenting as We Age
As parents of any age, we know the depth and breadth of our commitment and our love for our kids. As our kids age, move into their own lives, perhaps have their own children, what is our role? How do we define our relationship as parents of grown kids? As we age, what do we need, what do they need? How do we help create and support the relationship with healthy boundaries?
Join me and Samantha Akers for this beautiful in-depth exploration of parenting through the lens of the Dharma, the teachings of the Buddha. We’ll especially work with the teachings on Wisdom, Ethics and the Heart. Each 2-hour session will include guided and silent meditation, a talk and group discussion.
