Stillness at the Solstice: A Half-Day Retreat with Jokai Blackwell Roshi
Mizell Center, 480 South Sunrise Way, Palm Springs, CA, USPlease join us for a half-day retreat with Jokai Blackwell Roshi as we gather in community to explore stillness, presence, and the spirit of the summer solstice.
As the solstice invites us to pause and reflect, this morning offers an opportunity to step out of the usual pace of life and reconnect with the quiet wisdom of awareness.
Through sitting and walking meditation, dharma reflections, and shared inquiry, we will explore stillness not as an absence of motion, but as a quality of being available within each moment.
Whether you're new to meditation or have been practicing for years, all are welcome.
Location: Mizell Center, 480 S. Sunrise Way, Palm Springs, CA 92262
Registration Fee: $45 supports the cost of the retreat and the ongoing work of Insight Community of the Desert. Sliding scale available. No one is turned away for lack of funds.
