We can meet in different places to practice zazen together, for  sessions or retreats. 

These gatherings can also be an opportunity to discover, learn, or practice Baika chant.

Meeting can aslo take a different form.

Through my work with older people in France, I’ve seen how many of them live with loneliness 

and how some can feel lost in the face of life’s changes and uncertainties.

At difficult moments in life, sometimes what we need most is simply a safe space

 and a caring presence that allow us to face what we are going through. 

This is what I wish to offer in retirement communities, nursing homes, and hospitals.

Through Baika chant and simple human presence, I hope to create moments of gentleness and connection

a space where someone can feel heard and less alone.

Sometimes, it may simply mean sitting beside someone, listening to their words,

holding a hand, or sharing a few quiet breaths.
