    Course Description

    The ability to gather together and deepen our practices, connection with silence, love of nature and quietly feel others dedication around us is a great privilege and something many of us have been without for far too long, or know we need on a regular basis.

    In this 5 day retreat in June 2026 Sarah and Ty will include ample time to enjoy the silence around and within yourself. With many sessions a day of Yin and Yang Yoga and seated Buddhist meditation, brief talks and descriptions of meditative methods; you will enjoy a realm of dropping into the dimensions of experience often missed in our everyday practices. When practitioners have received many teachings and methods already, it is In extended silent retreating (with brief cues given by the teachers) that one can truly absorb and integrate the penetrating truths about one’s self and existence.

    Prerequisite–Since there will be even more silent practices than in most retreats, we ask that you have already attended a silent Buddhist retreat before coming to this one.

    To support each practitioner, Sarah and Ty will also be offering half hour private meetings for those interested.

    In advance of the retreat, you may enjoy reading, Always Maintain A Joyful Mind by Pema Chodron, Sarah’s second book Lit From Within as well as viewing Sarah’s teachings on Opening the Mind Lojong 1-6.

    We look forward to each of you being able to drop in, open up, and dive deep as you ignite and reclaim the profound resources dwelling within you.
