Buddhist Meditation Retreats, Hybrid Program, Immersive Meditation Retreats, On Land RetreatsSometimes we need to step back in order to move forward. For thousands of years, the practice of retreat has been valued across wisdom traditions as a time to step back, take inner care, and reawaken our deepest knowing. Join us for a spacious retreat that allows time to walk the
land, visit the Stupa, or to follow the spontaneous callings of your spirit. Our center offers the vastness, stillness, and gentle support that allows you to unwind, unplug, relax, and reconnect to what is of true value in your life. Daily optional yoga classes, meditation instruction, and group practice sessions help you ground in contemplative practices to calm the mind, rejuvenate the body and awaken insight and inspiration.

Shambhala & Tibetan Buddhism Retreats
In today’s high-paced, high-stress world, each of us has the natural capacity to find peace, clarity, well-being, and compassion within ourselves. The best means of tapping into this inner capacity is through the use of meditation – a simple practice of coming back to the present moment via the breath, the body and the senses.
Our contemplative workshops are suited for both beginning and experienced meditators. For those new to meditation and other contemplative disciplines, we offer Learn to Meditate and Shambhala Training Weekends. Our Retreat and Renewal programs include an introduction to meditation. There are no program prerequisites.
Shambhala Training is a meditation discipline that helps us to develop fearlessness, confidence, openness, and gentleness. The training path begins with a series of Heart of Warriorship weekends that help to establish a personal meditation practice. Each program includes meditation instruction, Shambhala teachings, group discussions, and individual interviews.
Our retreat environment is an ideal setting in which to get started or to deepen your meditation practice. Join us and learn how you can transform the challenges of daily life into opportunities for both contemplative practice and social action.
