What To Bring

The following items will increase your personal comfort while meditating:

• A blanket and/or meditation shawl.
• Padding for the floor. Many people also bring pillows.
• Back support, such as a backjack.

Backjacks and meditation shawls will be available if you would like to purchase them at the retreat. Chairs are provided by the facility, but we do ask that the people who use them sit toward the back or sides of the room to keep from blocking the view of the other participants.
