DEZC Practice Period, June 13th to August 3rd
A
Practice Period (ango in Japanese) is a time of intensifying our Zen practice. We simply make a deeper personal commitment
to bring mindfulness and care to our busy lives and to the lives of others. It could be by devoting more time to meditation
and or devoting less time to things that distract us from our practice. In any case whether you are a seasoned practitioner
or a beginner please join us by filling out the following form.
