How long does a meditation retreat last?

Meditation retreats come in various formats – from weekend retreats (2–3 days) and week-long intensive courses to multi-week silent retreats. For beginners, shorter retreats of 3 to 5 days are recommended, while experienced meditators often prefer longer formats. Among our 416 offerings, you're sure to find the right duration for your needs.

What is a silent retreat and is it right for me?

During a silent retreat, you refrain from speaking and often from using digital devices for the duration of the retreat. The silence helps you dive deeper into meditation, perceive your thoughts more clearly, and have an intense inner experience. Although it may sound challenging at first, many participants report a profound and liberating experience. Some of our retreats also offer gentler variations with partial silence periods.

What should I bring to a meditation retreat?

Generally, you should bring comfortable clothing, warm socks, and possibly your own meditation cushion if you prefer one. Most retreat centers provide meditation mats, cushions, and blankets. A notebook for personal reflections and weather-appropriate clothing for nature walks are also recommended. You'll usually receive a detailed packing list from the organizer after booking.
