During this year’s annual Teachers Retreat, Lama Willa and Lama Liz will be joined by guest presenters Harvey Aronson, Ph.D, Susan Pollack, Ed.D, Dan Foley, PsyD, and Erica Zinter, LiCSW, whose work integrates contemplative practice with psychologically informed care.

Through a mix of teachings, presentations, shared practice, and interactive exercise, we will reflect on the art of offering the Dharma, explore what strengthens our presence as mentors and facilitators, and draw from the lived wisdom that each one of us brings to our collective field of care.

All Meditation Teachers, Mitras/MITs, Vajrayana Mentors, Dharma Teachers, and Visiting Teachers within Natural Dharma Fellowship are welcome and encouraged to attend this online retreat. The more of us who gather, the richer the experience will be. There will be space to share our own wisdom on the art of teaching, guiding, and leading for the benefit of others.
