Do your summer plans include quiet, carefree days on the lake? Do you seek to deepen your meditation practice at a weekend or week long retreat with few distractions? Or, perhaps you wish to practice yoga on a Sunday morning?

Triple Gem of the North and its overnight retreat, The Metta Meditation Center, invite you to book your plans with us. We have space available for our long weekend and 7-day retreats in June, July and August on Lake Elysian in Janesville, Minnesota. Accommodations include dorm style rooms, private cabins, guided meditation, dharma talks from a Buddhist monk, and vegan meals in our dining hall.

Our Sunday yoga classes are at our Mindfulness Center in Chaska, Minnesota, led by a certified instructor. These classes are supported by your generous donation to the center and are available from June through August.

For more information about our retreats, cabins, or yoga classes, visit Triplegem.org.

At times, there may be last-minute changes or cancellations to one of our programs due to weather, an unfortunate incident, or a travel delay, to name a few.

Typically, we would post an update on Facebook or, in some cases, a group text. But it might not reach enough people. This can be frustrating to you. We want to do better.

Please take a moment to complete this brief survey so we can evaluate how you would like to be informed when something happens that forces a change in a Triple Gem session.

Your feedback is important. Thank you!
