Maitreya Zen Garden and Healing Retreat | Santa Cruz, CA

Immerse yourself in the healing waters and be nurtured by your brothers. We gather to connect deeply with ourselves and each other in a caring, supportive environment.
What: Nurturing the Masculine: a men's circle, soak, and sweat
When: Wednesday, June 17th
Where: Maitreya Retreat
Join us for an afternoon of caring connection with men of all ages. We gather to nurture and restore ourselves. We gather to share our experiences, to share a song or two, to sweat and soak together, and to share a meal. All are wanted, all are welcome...exactly as you are.
This space is held by Daniel Mollner and lightly facilitated with plenty of room for group and individual input. Everything in the schedule is optional. Each man is at choice at all times and encouraged to take 100% responsibility for his experience.
See the schedule below. Arrive no later than 2:30pm (no one admitted after that time) and plan to stay until 6pm.
NOTE: Maitreya is normally closed on Wednesdays and we've got all it to ourselves for this special gathering. BRING YOUR OWN TOWEL and enter through the side gate.
