Meditating with the Elements Retreat
with Eve Ekman
June 26th-28th, 2026
This immersive weekend retreat is a quiet opportunity to deepen our shared community of practice rooted in the San Francisco Dharma collective. Connection unfolds not through conversation, but through practicing side by side — settling together into stillness, clarity of mind, and warmth of heart.
Through guided meditation, mindful walking, and quiet reflection, you will be invited to slow down, settle into deeper stillness and clarity of mind, and gently cultivate warmth and openness of heart.
