This is a complete day devoted to building a stable, grounded meditation practice. You can come for half, or the full day.

Many people experience moments of clarity or stillness but struggle to stabilize them. This retreat is designed to address that gap by focusing on the foundations of meditation: attention, posture, nervous system regulation, and continuity of practice.

This retreat is strongly recommended before attending our non-dual or awakening-oriented sessions.

RETREAT STRUCTURE

The day is divided into two sessions.
You may attend one session or both.

Session 1: Morning Practice (9:00 AM – 12:00 PM)

• Opening orientation and foundational instruction
• Silent seated meditation (20-minute sits)
• Walking meditation
• Gentle stretching / mindful movement
• Time for meditation questions

Session 2: Afternoon Practice (1:00 PM – 5:00 PM)

• Re-orientation and refresher instruction
• Continued silent meditation cycles
• Walking meditation
• Stretching and integration
• Open Q&A focused on stabilizing practice

MEDITATION FORMAT

• 20-minute seated meditation periods
• Alternating with walking meditation and gentle movement
• Silence maintained during practice periods
• Clear instruction at the beginning of each session
• Dedicated time for questions and clarification

This is a structured, supportive container — not a drop-in meditation.

WHO THIS IS FOR

• New meditators who want a solid foundation
• Experienced practitioners who want to stabilize their practice
• Anyone planning to attend non-dual or awakening-focused sessions
• Those comfortable with silence and structure

WHO THIS IS NOT FOR

• People looking for a casual or social meditation
• Those seeking peak experiences or altered states
• Anyone currently feeling ungrounded or emotionally unstable

RECOMMENDED CONTRIBUTION

Recommended contribution: $50 (half day) – $100 (full day)

This retreat is offered on a contribution basis to keep it accessible while honoring the time, structure, and depth of the practice. Please choose an amount within the range that feels aligned.

Psychedelics and meditation are often talked about together — but rarely in a clear, responsible, and grounded way.

This public event is an educational conversation exploring what meditation and psychedelics each offer, where they overlap, and where they fundamentally differ. The focus is understanding, discernment, and integration — not peak experiences or persuasion.

What we’ll explore:

• What meditation actually trains and develops over time
• What psychedelics reliably do — and what they don’t
• The difference between experience and integration
• Why insight without stability can be destabilizing
• The myth of “awakening in a weekend”
• How long-term meditation practice changes how altered states are understood and integrated

Event flow:

• A short guided meditation to help everyone arrive and settle
• An introduction to meditation (attention, awareness, insight)
• An introduction to psychedelics from a chemist’s perspective
• A live panel conversation on the intersection of meditation and psychedelics
• Time for audience Q&A

Important framing:

• This is an educational discussion, not medical or legal advice
• We are not encouraging illegal activity or substance use
• Meditation and psychedelics are discussed as tools, not shortcuts or identities
• The tone will be grounded, respectful, and experience-focused rather than hype-driven

This event is well suited for people who are curious, thoughtful, and interested in depth over novelty.

Come with questions, curiosity, and an open but discerning mind.
