Interested in joining the practice community of Dechen Chöling?
The heart of our local Shambhala community is the community of practitioners living at Dechen Chöling. If you are interested in discovering or diving into Shambhala culture, this experience of community and practice could be perfect for you!
There are two principal ways of joining the practice community of Dechen Chöling:
- The Meditation in Action programme (“MIA”) : join to help as a volunteer and enjoy practice, teachings and community life at an affordable programme cost.
Meditation in Action programme application form - Residency : rent a room and/or office space to enjoy practice community life while keeping time for your home office or other interests (generally paused during summer, please inquire by email for more information).
Residency application form
Both options require an online application (see links above) and interviews in order to make sure that what you are looking for matches what we offer. If you are inspired by this opportunity and have the longing to practice together with like-minded people, please consider joining us for one month or more.
Joining the practice community involves following the Shambhala Code of Conduct and our Covid guidelines.
