If you're feeling the need to pause, I’ve been there—and trust me, taking time for yourself can be life-changing. These mindfulness retreats helped me slow down, breathe more deeply, and reconnect with what really matters. I think you’ll feel the same once you experience them.
Highlights:
- I reconnected with nature in a powerful way at Plum Village in France. Founded by Thich Nhat Hanh, it’s where you’ll learn to live more gently with yourself and the world around you.
- At Wat Suan Mokkh in Thailand, I immersed myself in silence and stillness—if you’ve never tried a silent retreat, this one will shift your perspective.
- You should try unplugging at Spirit Rock Meditation Center in northern California. I left feeling more grounded and aware than I had in years.
- I found peace high in the Himalayas at Tushita Meditation Centre in Dharamkot, India. You’ll feel like time slows down up there—it’s the perfect place to reset.
- If ocean breezes and gentle movement call to you, Gaia Retreat & Spa in Byron Bay is my go-to. You’ll relax, restore, and carry that calm back home with you.
