There is the option to sit out any of the meditation periods and read or contemplate in the common room. At 4.00pm, there is evening service, followed by meditation until 4.45pm. You are welcome to come for as long as suits you – this offers the opportunity to schedule your own retreat for a day. It is helpful if you can arrive or leave during the 15 minute break before each hour. If you’d like to have lunch here (the lunch break is 1.00pm – 2.00pm), please bring a packed lunch.
