Zazenkai
One-Day Meditation Retreat

A one-day Zen meditation intensive is a wonderful opportunity to immerse and deepen in practice. The program includes four blocks of seated and walking meditation, work practice, short dharma talk and chant service.
We offer both online and in-person participation at Willow Farm Contemplative Center in Hygiene, CO.
The Zazenkai is open for full and part-time participation.
As a guideline for those with the means, we suggest the following for this retreat:
Full Day Participation:
Eon Zen Members: $60 in-person / $40 virtual
Non- Members: $80 in-person / $50 virtual
Part Day Participation: 50% of Full Day
We are committed to making Zen practice available to all regardless of financial situation. If finances are a hardship, a Dana Registration is also available (pay what you can). Please write to us at staff@eonzen.org to inquire. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
We look forward to practicing together.
