RETREAT TO BE HELD ON THE LAND!

Description:
Explore wisdom teachings from Buddhist and Indigenous traditions, based in Insight Meditation, mindfulness, and the sacred path of Indigenous Awareness. This retreat will explore similarities between Indigenous and Buddhist ways of knowing, in service of peace in the heart and mind, and wise action in the world. Gentle mindfulness practices open our connection with nature and ancestors, describe a path to decolonizing the mind, offer ways of gently releasing challenging experiences, and invite us to walk the Beauty Way and other sacred paths of Indigenous Awareness.

This retreat is silent except for teacher-led Q&A, small groups, or other practice meetings.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
Scholarship offerings: In returning to the land, we returned to our pre-pandemic scholarship options and policies. All scholarship rates require a minimum fee ($55/night). Scholarships are limited to TWO per calendar year for on-land retreats. And, while we are not able to offer “pay what you can”-type of scholarships for in-person retreats, they are still available for online offerings as space allows.

Room Occupancy Update*: We have returned to double and single occupancy rooms. Many of our rooms are single occupancy (only 16 of 80 rooms are double occupancy). We have also returned to offering a “guaranteed single room” rate; these rates are limited (16). This rate guarantees a single room while helping to support scholarships and all we do here at Spirit Rock. The remaining single rooms are not exclusive to the top end of the sliding scale; however, they are initially prioritized for those with serious medical needs.

*Subject to change depending upon COVID-19 situation.

Selection Details:
Applications are accepted between [ADD LOTTERY DATE BRACKET]. All applications are assigned a random number. Together with the random number we are balancing many additional variables to create equity, diversity, inclusion, and access. Those factors include: scholarship needs & availability, affinity group “membership”, age, gender balance, and experienced or new practitioners. Applications received after the close date are automatically placed on the wait list (and will not be included in the first round of selections). Notification rounds can move quickly in the first few weeks following the first acceptances, so we recommend staying ready. You may be accepted sooner than you realize!

You will be notified about the selection results within two weeks of the application close date. If you have been offered a space, you will have two days to pay a deposit to accept/hold the space. If you don’t accept the space within this deadline, we will offer it to the next person in line.

RETREAT TO BE HELD ON THE LAND!

OPEN TO ALL SELF-IDENTIFIED BLACK, INDIGENOUS, AND PEOPLE OF COLOR

Description:

Whether in our daily practice or daily lives, we are faced with obstacles that either hinder us or propel us forward.

As a BIPOC community, we will explore the Buddha’s core teachings with mindful awareness as a vehicle to freedom of mind/heart. We will practice seated and walking meditation with instructions as well as Yoga and gentle movement, connect with teachers in small groups, and hear Dharma offerings. All levels of practice are welcome.
