On-Site Offering
Chris Crotty’s half day retreat on June 26th has been changed from zoom to on-site (in our meditation hall at IMCN on Middle Street in West Newbury). To attend this retreat, you need to be fully vaccinated. Please bring proof of vaccination to be shown at the door or email a copy to the Director ahead of time. Masks will not be required while sitting in the meditation hall or outside during walking meditation. We ask you wear a mask while moving throughout the rest of the building.
IMCN was created to be a place of inner refuge, peace and renewal in the Buddhist Insight Meditation Tradition. Receiving teachings and practicing meditation together in this natural and inspiring setting invites us to touch deep inner resources of awareness and compassion and gives us tools to live with more calm, clarity, and insight in the midst of our daily lives.
