Queer Dharma Retreat
Our third annual retreat has been expanded to one week for those who like! It will also be possible to come just for the weekend of August 22 or for a few more days. Plan on coming to deepen your meditation practice and refresh your mind and body with fellow GLBT meditators. This week of meditation will count towards dathun requirements for those interested in advanced programs.
You will have the opportunity to work with your mind through the practice of sitting and walking meditation at this Queer Dharma retreat. There will be yoga and stretching throughout the day to help you sit more comfortably and to join body and mind. There will also be opportunities for walks and swimming throughout the week in the lovely Kettle Moraine region of Wisconsin at Midwest Retreat Center,
