One-Day Retreat with Gareth Young
Saturday, April 17th, 2027, from 9:00 to 5:00
Gareth Young is a co-founder and the guiding teacher of Red Clay Sangha. He has maintained a committed meditation practice for over 25 years in the Chan/Zen and Nikaya traditions, and integrates over 10 years of interfaith engagement into his teaching.
Gareth's teaching authorization is in the Thai Forest lineage of Ajahn Chah, Jack Kornfield and Lisa Ernst.
What to expect: This will be a full day of sitting and walking meditation practice, with a break for lunch midday. Typically Gareth will begin the day with a guided meditation to ground and orient practice for the day, followed by a discussion; there may also be a short talk and/or practice-oriented Q&A in the middle of the afternoon. Sitting and walking periods alternate, each generally being approximately 30 minutes. All are welcome, no previous experience with meditation required. Attending for the full day is recommended, but if you are only able to come for a short period, you are welcome to do so: please just enter and leave quietly, respecting the practice of others.
Location: Red Clay Sangha, 3315 Chamblee-Dunwoody Road, and on Zoom
Food: There will be a break around noon for lunch. Please bring your meal. There is a refrigerator on premise if you wish to store food in it, as well as a kettle and a variety of tea bags if you'd like to make yourself tea.
