2019 Annual Spring Retreat

About Kaira: 

I teach Buddhist meditation, mindfulness, and compassion internationally, with a focus on activists, people of color, artists, educators, families, and youth. I began practicing mindfulness in 1997. An ordained nun of 15 years in Thich Nhat Hanh’s Order of Interbeing, I am now a lay Dharma teacher based in Washington, DC. I lead retreats worldwide, teach meditation, support groups and individuals and offer mindfulness programs for educators and youth in schools. I work with students around the world offering ongoing individual support, meeting locally and online. I also run courses in urban, non-residential settings.

History: For many years, MCPS has enjoyed a rich tradition of holding an Annual Retreat at Camp Indianola (Suquamish Land), Indianola, WA. Several sangha members have volunteered to lead and support our 2018 Annual Retreat, ensuring this tradition of practice continues.
