About this retreat
Caregivers' Sitting is a half-day, in-person program at San Francisco Zen Center, listed under the center's City Center events, built for one audience: people who spend much of their time caring for someone else. The description's language — "refuge," "supportive meditation practices" — signals a focus on rest and practical instruction rather than an intensive retreat schedule. It is also a small commitment: a half-day on October 11, 2026, not a multi-day retreat.
The components named in the listing:
- Sitting meditation
- Walking meditation
- A short lecture with Q&A
- Individual instruction — one-on-one guidance during the program
Practical details are thin. The center has not published a teacher, a start or end time, or a fee, and the listing doesn't state whether prior meditation experience is needed — instruction is built into the program, but if that question matters to you, ask the center directly. Registration runs through the event page at sfzc.org, which is the place to confirm schedule and cost as the date approaches.
