We asked people why they go on retreat, here's what they said:
I am an oncology nurse and a few long time patients have died recently. I need to rejuvenate and return to my breath! Elizabeth
We believe human beings are innately wise, strong and kind. This wisdom, although not always experienced, is always present. Going on retreat is a beautiful way to reconnect to our basic sanity and health. Our aspiration at Retreat Guru is to inspire people to experience authentic retreats and reconnect with their innate wisdom, strength and kindness.
