Details of this retreat
It can be a challenge to completely unplug in our busy world. In the middle of a mountain forest, with the sounds of nature at the forefront, this silent retreat offers just that opportunity.
Silent retreats are often experienced in seated meditation for many hours a day. While we offer this opportunity for seated meditation throughout the day, we also provide you with many other venues for experiencing silence. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to explore various types of meditation during the retreat. Wisteria Wellness Retreat offers many unique venues in which to experience silence, from the Himalayan salt cave, to the dark space room, to the bright yoga dome. We provide a multi-faceted approach tailored to your individual needs and offer you a variety of tranquil venues. Located in the Sierra Nevada mountains, an hour outside of Lake Tahoe, this one-of-a-kind, private retreat is specially tailored to meet your individual needs, offering you the opportunity to unplug and connect to your deepest self.
This retreat is all-inclusive, year-round, and offers opportunities for extensions and additional packages.
Please note: This is a private retreat, however, there may be other guests staying in our other lodgings but the classes, activities, meals, etc, will all be on a one-to-one/private basis.
