Over the past several years, Joan has been a part of the Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Woodacre, California. This includes assisting attendees of major events with purchases at the on-site bookstore. The large inventory includes many types of books, instructional materials and gifts, as well as publications from various presenters and faculty at Spirit Rock.
