Zen Village offering three day retreat

Zen Village is offering a three day retreat. It's a full immersion into the Zen way of living and lifestyle. It will take place at the center (3570 Main Highway), and will teach you how to interact with a traditional environment and with a sacred temple.

The retreat starts Friday, April 6 at 9 am and goes until Sunday, April 10 at 7 pm.

Begin by learning to slow down your pace and relax your mind. You will be able to learn a profound and overall view of your spiritual life in this series of retreats.

On the agenda:
Relaxation breathing exercises and yoga
Self-healing massage
Tea ceremony experience
Zen Philosophy
How to nurture yourself
How to elevate your experience of life
You will have a chance to communicate directly with a Master and with students as well.

There will be five lectures, ten practice sessions, one Tea Ceremony Experience, two nights at the temple, and Zen meals included. Spring is a time for renewal. It's a weekend for you to relax, nourish and enjoy a peaceful temple environment with refreshing meals, meditative walks around the Stupa; study with Sangha friends, and much more, at the temple of Zen Village.

Staying overnight is optional, but recommended, as they will be practicing until 9 pm on Friday and Saturday nights, and breakfast will be served at 7 am on Saturday and Sunday mornings. The retreat costs $250 for members and $275 for non-members. Register by calling: 305-567-0165.
