Participants of this residential event must comply with the Covid-19 guidelines at the event venue and with the relevant Government Covid-19 guidelines in force at the time of the event. Further details of the Covid-19 requirements will be sent to ticket-holders one week before the start of the event.
The retreat on Zoom
There is the option of attending the retreat online via Zoom . Those attending on Zoom will be able to join meditation sessions, Dharma talks, dharma sharing and other activities. You can fully participate in the programme, including supper on the first evening and lunch on Saturday and Sunday. It can be a wonderful opportunity.
We invite you to create a retreat atmosphere at home – planned meals, a quiet corner for meditation, some time away from being online. We are aware that some retreatants will have family around them and we fully support your need to take care of responsibilities. We suggest sharing a copy of the programme with your family so that they can support you for the sittings, the talks and the dharma sharing.
