We are invited in this day to unload the weight of anxiety and stress that accumulate in our lives by bringing our mind and heart into connection and peace with the practice of mindfulness and loving kindness. It is also a special blessing to come together to share and learn in our community.

There will be guided meditations, group sharing and dharma talks. Open to all.

Rev. Myo Denis Lahey began Zen practice whilst still in high school in 1969, with a zazenkai started by Shunryu Suzuki-Roshi in Los Altos. After thirteen years of lay practice during undergraduate and graduate university studies in Sanskrit, psychology, computer science and motor mechanics, he undertook full-time residential training at the San Francisco Zen Center's three campuses, receiving clergy ordination in 1986 from Rev. Tenshin Reb Anderson. He was shuso (head monk) at Tassajara Zen Mountain Center in 1989, and again at Green Gulch Farm in 1990. He received Dharma Transmission from Rev. Anderson in 1999, and began tenure as tanto (Prior) at Tassajara that same year. In 2002 he left Tassajara to be resident clergyperson at the Hartford Street Zen Center in San Francisco, where he is currently teaching.

Young Adults (18-26) are invited to attend this day for $25.
