Retreat Type:

‘Your old life was a frantic running from silence… Wake up like someone suddenly born into colour.’ - Rumi

Stop, unwind, and recharge your batteries in the beautiful surroundings of Taraloka. Rumi, the Sufi poet, beautifully expresses the longing for peace and clarity that so many of us feel in the hectic modern world. Sometimes we need to be able to remain present and just live one moment at a time, putting one foot in front of the other, or simply taking one breath at a time, to stay creative with our daily experiences.

There are no single rooms left for this retreat, if you'd like to be on the waiting list please email admin@taraloka.org.uk

Explore the beauty of the present moment through learning mindfulness and loving kindness meditation practices, a lying down body scan meditation and gentle walking meditation. We will also explore practical ways to bring a kindly awareness to our daily lives and consider how these teachings of the Buddha can transform our lives today.

Paying for your retreat

Taraloka runs on generosity.

To book a retreat you pay a booking fee. This is the only charge made for coming on retreat. As far as possible, we don't want anyone's financial situation to stop them from coming to Taraloka.

At the end of your retreat, you have the opportunity to give money towards Taraloka. If you are able to donate, you are giving to another person who otherwise could not afford to come on retreat. And you are helping to give the gift of Taraloka to the women of the future.
