The practice of intimacy is the practice of allowing our dharma practice to work with fears of ourselves and others so that we may actually began experiencing true closeness with ourselves and others while at the same time practicing and maintaining critical boundaries. This retreat will combine simple movement, meditation, contemplation, small group interaction, journaling, as well as structured and guided dialogue to help us break through the barriers that prevent authentic and intimate dialogue and interaction with others.
Lama Rod is considered one of the leaders of the next generation of Dharma teachers and is the co-author of Radical Dharma, Talking Race, Love and Liberation. He speaks to the intersection of meditation practice and social justice work from the cross sections of his life as a Black, queer male, born and raised in the South, and heavily influenced by the church and its community.
