Join us at the Magnolia Zen Center for a 5-day meditation retreat for veterans and their family members.
This retreat is guided by the experienced Zen Buddhist monk and Vietnam Veteran, Claude AnShin Thomas who is also an international speaker and teacher, peace activist, and author. He has been navigating the map of understanding post-traumatic stress and leaning to life with the consequences of military and combat service for more than 50 years.

"War doesnโ€™t end when the fighting stops. For many veterans, it continues insideโ€”manifesting as post-traumatic stress anger, confusion, and a deep sense of disconnection. The key to healing is not to suppress or ignore these feelings, but to face them with awareness and courage. Only then can we can begin to make peace with our unpeacefulness."
