Zen Center North Shore

Hours: Zen Center North Shore, established in 2012, is a welcoming place dedicated to making the teachings and practice of zazen accessible to a diverse community across the North Shore of Boston and New England. The center is built on the wisdom and compassion of Buddha's teachings, with zazen—just sitting—as its primary practice. It offers a sanctuary for those seeking connection, purpose, and calm amid busy, complex lives. The community is friendly and supportive, with in-person and online opportunities to practice, including twice-daily zazen via Zoom and weekly in-person sessions. Visitors and members appreciate the center’s warm atmosphere, especially newcomers, and the leadership of the compassionate teacher. The practice remains grounded in tradition while staying relevant to modern life. Many find it easy to return to meditation after years away, thanks to the gentle guidance. The center also actively supports social justice and diversity, fostering a sense of fellowship among practitioners. Overall, Zen Center North Shore provides a peaceful space for meditation, community, and personal growth.
