Just Be: A Year-End Personal Retreat
December 26, 2024 - January 1, 2025
A DHARMAKAYA CENTER RETREAT
Ring in the New Year from a calm, centered place, by leaving the pressures of your normal life and immersing yourself in the tranquil environment of our Center. This is a time to focus on yourself and your practice.
Meditate in Milarepa Hall, in the privacy of your room—or even in our outdoor pavilion. Spend afternoons in the library, perusing our extensive collection of dharma and other books. Take a snowy walk. Contemplate the stars.
We will ring in the New Year together, too (though long before midnight).
Make us part of your holiday tradition. Just be.
“This is a wonderful place for quiet and for furthering ones personal practice.”
“We had an amazing time on a personal retreat at Dharmakaya. It is beautiful and clean and the meals are so delicious! And the rates are extremely inexpensive! They gave us such personal care and attention.”
WANT DIFFERENT DATES? If you want to come later, simply book a Personal Retreat. You are welcome to participate in the group meditations and New Year’s celebration while you are with us. If you want to stay longer, you can extend during step 2 of registration.
