The Nature of Intimacy at Esalen

For more photos of our group click here: Workshop Photos

Incredible fall weather graced the week. We played big and went deep. And by now we all know the lines...

"The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don't go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the door sill
where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don't go back to sleep."
Rilke


May we all stay awake for the fullness of our lives. I am grateful to you all for showing up so tenderly, so fully, so alive... Steven

The Art of Pilgrimage at Green Gulch Zen Center

An invitation for anyone in the extended San Francisco Bay Area (or further away) to come join us for a day at the Green Gulch Farm Zen Center.

My hope with this particular retreat is that it becomes a regular way for folks that have done programs with me in the past, new folks, and iThou community folks get together at Green Gulch for a day of contemplative walking. The fee is minimal, the venue is great, and the opportunity to more deeply understand contemporary pilgrimage together on a seasonal basis is exciting to me. Here’s the retreat description.
