One Continuous Thread: Home Practice Intensive
Soto Zen
A six-day online zazen intensive for practitioners maintaining their own schedules. Participants engage with Zen Mountain Monastery's sesshin via live webcast, bringing elements of formal retreat practice into daily life.
About this retreat
This retreat adapts sesshin practice to a home-based format. Rather than residential attendance at the monastery, you follow along with ZMM's live webcast while maintaining your own daily life — work, family, other responsibilities. The retreat runs October 19–25, 2026.
The center has not yet published details about the daily schedule, what portions of the sesshin will be webcast, whether there are group sitting times for participants, or how dokusan or other elements of formal practice translate to the online format. Contact Zen Mountain Monastery directly for specifics on what your participation will look like day to day.
Schedules can change — confirm details on Zen Mountain Monastery's website.
