Please join us for Zen, Recovery, and Creativity.

This day is appropriate for all, whether you are new to meditation and recovery or a long-term practitioner.

Join us in this beautiful location as we explore ways that the twining practices of 12-step recovery and Soto Zen can advance and sustain your health and quality of life. In Zen and in recovery we are seeking our original, authentic self: unwounded and pre-trauma. Creativity can be an important tool for experiencing and expressing oneself. In this day-long workshop, we will use writing, drawing, song, movement, and whatever creative urges move you. There will be sitting and walking meditation with indoor and outdoor options. Green Gulch Farm is an ideal place to deepen your connection with nature.

Come and use this safe and nourishing space to arouse mindfulness and delight in your recovery and practice journeys. You can appreciate your massive talent, or begin to uncover your creativity, to take a chance. All are welcome here.

You are invited to bring a favorite poem, brief reading or other art related to your recovery or Zen practice.  Something you wrote/created or a favorite by another creative person.

Bring a bag lunch and a water bottle. No other supplies are necessary.
