Triratna Pacific Northwest Regional Retreat
The System of Practice from a Somatic Approach
September 29 to October 2, 2023
Join us as we explore Triratna's System of Practice from a deeply somatic approach. The system of practice has five key aspects - Intergration, Positive Emotion, Spiritual Death (letting go), Spiritual Rebirth (seeing through), and Receptivity. Learn various tools and practices that can be used in daily life to live a truly embodied life of aliveness, connection, and presence.
Dogen spoke of the body as the gateway to ultimate realization. The more we wake up through the body, the more we become safer, skillful, and more joyful presence in the world. By healing ourselves first, we positively impact others, and the world, in unimaginable ways.
Sliding Scale:
Two nights CAD$ 250 - 325
Three nights CAD$ 350 - 500

All of our weekly classes at Triratna Vancouver are offered for free. While our team of volunteers is happy to lead classes, there are certain costs associated with running our programs. While we currently do not have a permanent location, we do occasionally rent spaces for our sessions. Additionally, we hope to have a permanent location again in the future.
