Retreats

Multi-day retreats are an unparalleled way to deepen your understanding of Zen, and connect more fully with yourself, the teachers, and the community. Everyone is encouraged to come to retreats. If you’ve never attended one, you might want to start with a day-long retreat before moving up to a multi-day retreat.

2021 Retreat Schedule

Forest Retreats: August 15-20 and September 9-13 at Cobscook Bay State Park in Edmunds Twp, Maine

The Forest Retreats are silent Zen sesshin. Diane Shoshin Fitzgerald, Sensei, the resident teacher for Zen DownEast will lead the retreats. 

Due to the uncertainty as to continuing COVID-19 restrictions, our 2021 retreat schedule is currently limited to these two outdoor Forest Retreats.  If conditions change, additional indoor retreats may be offered. Below are photos from past outdoor and indoor retreats to give you some idea as to what to expect. Detailed information for each retreat/sesshin is made available approximately two months in advance. If you are interested in attending a 2021 retreat, please contact Diane at dianeshoshin@gmail.com.
