with Shokuchi Deirdre Carrigan and Myogen Steve Stücky
September 6-9 (Friday-Monday)

Experience the joy and wonder of balancing the mind and body in this Zen and Yoga retreat in the exquisite setting of our new practice space in the Ventana wilderness.

Explore the core of both traditions, discovering how they support and complement each other, and how they bring our lives into a deeper, fuller, and richer communication with reality. Alternating between sitting meditation and yoga asana, we come to appreciate how the practices are both different and the same, not two and not one. A full schedule of Zen and yoga sessions is offered, providing the opportunity to experience an intensive retreat. Participation is flexible, however, and you are free to take time out to walk, swim, bathe, and enjoy Tassajara.

$240 ($204/Member)
