*Weekend workshops at the Tibetan Nyingma Institute offer fresh insights in a gentle, meditative atmosphere. Workshop participants may arrange to stay overnight at the Institute for an additional $40 per night. If no prerequisite is listed, then the workshop is open to students at all levels of experience.
*The Nyingma Institute overlooks the San Francisco Bay from a hillside just north of the University of California campus. Painted a vivid yellow, the three-story buildings have been said to resemble a Tibetan monastery. Climbing the staircase, you enter brightly colored rooms where you can sip a cup of tea, explore the many treasures of a small bookstore, or simply relax and enjoy the beauty of the sweeping views.
Attending workshops or retreats immerses you in this serene environment. Your instructors are men and women who have devoted their time and talents to integrating these ancient teachings into their lives. The subjects they teach guide you toward deeper self-reflection and insight.
