Each month, we invite the teachers at WITHIN to offer wisdom and inspiration around a particular topic. In February, we’re talking about listening deeply: to others, and within yourself.
On February 17th, three of our teachers will get together for an informal conversation on Zoom exploring this month’s theme: Stephanie Osborne, Kim Nicol and Shundo David Haye. Whether you join them live 10-11am PST / 1-2pm EST, or listen to the recording afterwards, you’re sure to get a variety of perspectives and ideas to nourish your meditation practice.
Anyone can submit a question ahead of time for the teachers - just fill out this quick form. We also welcome your questions live! Please note, during the conversation we will record both the questions submitted and the responses from the teachers. If you’d prefer that we not mention your name, be sure to indicate that on the form or when you type your question in the Zoom chat.
This conversation will be held online via Zoom; the link will be provided to you via email when you register. Registration is $15.
If you’re a WITHIN Member, this is included in your membership - email us for the promo code!

Shundo David Haye
Shundo David Haye came from England in 2000 to live at the San Francisco Zen Center, and spent fifteen years in residential training, including five years of monastic practice at Tassajara. He helped found and run the successful Young Urban Zen practice group at the Zen Center.
Although he loves the robes and the formal rituals, he is interested in reaching people who will never set foot inside a Zen temple. He has taught at tech companies, schools and colleges, yoga studios, retreat centers, and the county jail. He loves being outside, especially on a bike, and leads regular mindful hikes around San Francisco, as well as a weekly outdoor meditation.
