Description

In the Wheelwright Center.

In this all-day retreat, Ryuko Laura Burges will guide participants through teachings and practices from her book, The Zen Way of Recovery: An Illuminated Path Out of the Darkness of Addiction. Some of us are on the path of recovery from addictive behaviors—but we are all recovering from something! How can we enlist Buddhist teachings that will help us turn towards wholesome thoughts, words, and deeds? 

For this retreat, it will be helpful to have a copy of the book on hand (available in the SFZC store). Please wear comfortable clothes and shoes for sitting and walking meditation, and bring writing materials and a vegetarian bagged lunch.
