Special Zoom Considerations

Sitting a class via Zoom comes with added conveniences and challenges. On the one hand, you will practice from the safety and comfort of home. On the other hand, unlike when meditating at a retreat center or meditation hall, many habits of distraction surround you.  We ask that you take some special care to create a safe and respectful container for yourself, Tina, and the sangha.

Here are some specific suggestions:

 For Zoom

  • Use your device for Zoom only—turn off all other programs. Give yourself the gift of not multi-tasking.

  • When you enter the Zoom meetings, your mic will be muted. Please leave it muted. There will be times during the retreat to unmute your mic. We will be there to help with this.

  • Please keep your Video (camera) turned on as much as possible. This helps maintain a sense of connection for you, Tina, and the sangha.

Preparing for the Class

  • If possible, dedicate at least one room in your home to the retreat. This is your zendo. Take some time to set up in advance.

  • Please arrive for each session 10 minutes early and take the time to settle and "land." Be ready to start promptly.

  • Modify or turn off cell phones, house phones, and any other devices that might call to you. Aim camera away from ceiling fans.

  • If possible, use seating similar to what you would find at a retreat center: Establish a sitting posture that balances comfort and alertness.

  • If you live with others, make a communication plan. Under what circumstances should they talk with you?
