Silent Meditation Retreat
- 3 days of full Silence -
What can you expect?
During these 5 days you will be guided into the practice of meditation. The silence and the natural monastic environment create a spacious field in which you can contemplate, relax and return to your true Self. The constant influx of impulses and information will be put on hold and the attention will be directed inward. You’ll be given the chance to let go of daily activities as well as internal obstacles. The meditation practice and the nurturing outer conditions create a healing process. The innate love, joy and freedom of your being can be rediscovered and reactivated.

What does silence mean?
For 3 full days silence (mauna) will be present. That means refraining from any external communication, including talking, emails, phone calls, etc. Your phone will be handed in on the first evening. The attention can be fully ‘here’ and inside. Silence is a requisite for the meditation practice and the deep healing that may take place.
