Our practices throughout the weekend will invite us to find space and warmth inside ourselves\, to touch the healing and deep quiet of this time of year\, and to feel the light of our love and compassion. \n\n\nThe heart of the weekend is a Celebration of Light: \nIt will include a Tea Meditation and Offerings (a tea meditation in which we enjoy mindfully drinking our tea and listening to offerings from the community)  The offering could be a poem\, song\, musical piece or short story with the theme of the season of inner light\, the Winter Solstice.  You can also share a meaningful or joyful personal story from the winter/holiday season\, recently or reaching back into childhood memories. The Celebration will culminate with a Spiral Walk and Candle Lighting Ceremony. We will meditate on the Solstice\, being embraced by the quiet dark and awakening our inner light of compassion. Then\, with music and silent prayers\, we will each walk the spiral\, light our candle and place it as an offering in the spiral. \n\nBelow you can find details on attending any combination of: \n\nSunday Celebraion of Light\,  3:30-6:30\nSunday morning Day of Mindfulness\, 9:30-12:30\nWhole Weekend Retreat\nWait List for Saturday Celebraion of Light\, 3:30-6:30\n\n\n(Scroll Down for More Details or to Register) \n\nDESCRIPTION OF SOLSTICE EVENTS: \n\nSolstice Weekend Retreat – Friday 7pm- Sunday 12:30pm  Arrive on Friday evening after dinner and stay through to the end of the Day of Mindfulness of Sunday.  On Saturday\, the morning will have a light schedule of meditation\, a BYO bagged lunch\, and then some simple working meditation to prepare for the evening Solstice Celebration.

It is grounded in the Plum Village mindfulness tradition\, with space for each person’s unique experience and voice. \n\nWhat does it mean to be a man rooted in presence\, humility\, and strength?\nWho am I\, and who are we beneath the armor we were taught to wear?\nHow do I relate to other men when performance gives way to authenticity?\n\nThis retreat invites you into a space of sincere practice and shared reflection. We will enjoy the crisp autumn air while connecting around the fire\, and hiking through the golden falling leaves. Through sitting and walking meditation\, Dharma sharing\, deep listening\, and circle practice\, we’ll explore the arc of our lives—from the messages we received as boys\, to the identities we perform as men\, to the possibilities we long to grow into together. \n\n\nYour retreat facilitators: \nAustin has experience working with men’s issues both professionally and personally. He has a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and has led multiple men’s groups in a mental health setting. He was ordained as a monastic in the Plum Village Tradition in 2015 and returned to lay life in 2020. His relationship to practice and spiritual work is rooted in maintaining the integrity of his root spiritual tradition while also allowing space for creativity\, humor\, and play. Austin is both nervous and excited to be organizing his first men’s retreat at Morning Sun. \nDavid’s most enduring joy in life has been offering and receiving the gifts of true friendship and community. He first ordained as a monk with Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh in 2005 and spent several years living in the Plum Village tradition monasteries before finding his niche in community lay life. His new book\, “Thriving Together: 9 Principles for Cocreating True Community” illuminates the real struggles\, joys\, and deep satisfaction of cultivating mindful community. David is a white-presenting Chinese-American cis man\, committed to learning about the resiliency of his ancestors who both caused and were harmed by intergenerational trauma. Some of David’s favorite things to do are drinking tea in nature with friends\, Sangha game nights\, conscious dance\, drinking poetry\, and sunset meditations. \nGary Honey Bear “HB” is a developer\, musician\, and practitioner of Buddhist and psychological inquiry. He brings a deep commitment to healing\, clarity\, and relational presence. His path is recovery\, art\, and dharma—drawing fro\nm trauma-informed recovery (including ACoA)\, Plum Village mindfulness (ordained in the Order of Interbeing in 2009)\, and music rooted in improvisation and deep listening. Whether in silence or in song\, HB seeks the rhythms that restore relationship and reveal what matters. Through music\, facilitation\, or quiet care behind the scenes\, he serves as a bridge between inner work and outer action—creating spaces where people can meet themselves\, and each other\, with honesty\, compassion\, and courage. \n\n\nLogistics: \nArrival for the retreat is Thursday\, October 2nd\, from 4pm to 6pm. Departure is on Sunday October 5th\, after lunch at 1pm.
