We spend many, many hours in activity, whether working in employment, as a volunteer, or in our homes. Work environments and the people we work with can be challenging. All work experiences are opportunities for Zen practice.

Join us for a deeper dive into right action, right speech and right livelihood, and bringing spiritual practice into our daily activities; we also practice with the transitions between silence and work activity.

Suggested donation includes a vegetarian/vegan lunch. No one turned away for lack of funds.

In-person only.
