Half-Day Zen Mindful Retreat in Saratoga

​Life moves fast, but sometimes we need to pause and let our souls catch up.

​Escape the noise of the week and algorithms. This Sunday afternoon, join us at a private, secluded sanctuary nestled in the trees of Saratoga for a half-day Zen retreat dedicated entirely to breath, awareness, and deep rest.

​If you’ve meditated for a period of time, this is the right gathering for you. Hit pause on a tense nervous system and allow your mind and body to gently reset through the resonance of nature, tea, and stillness. Seats are intentionally limited to preserve a spacious, intimate atmosphere.
