IJS Programs
2025 – 2026
Whether you’re seeking to deepen your meditation practice, nurture your relationships, lead with greater steadiness, or reconnect with a sense of possibility in challenging times, our programs offer a gentle space for you to slow down, listen deeply, and grow with our community. We welcome you to step into winter practice with us, and to find the nourishment, connection, and clarity that can emerge when we gather together.
We look forward to practicing with you this winter!
