Face it, we in New England have been beaten down by the forces of nature. There was Irene. Then there was Sandy. Nemo was probably the most brutal. But, our spirit can bounce back.
One path is the Introduction to Zen Practice 5.5 hour workshop in New Haven, Connecticut, on Saturday, March 16th. It's from 10:00 A.M. through to 3:30 P.M. The location is the New Haven Zen Center, 193 Mansfield Street, New Haven, CT 06511.
The Buddhists run a tight ship so make sure you are there before 10:00 A.M. Doors open at 9:30 A.M. The experience is free but donations are eagerly accepted.
