Retreats
What is a Retreat ?
Retreat is a time where we stop our normal daily activities so as to emphasise a particular meditation practice. They can vary in length from a day or two, to a few weeks or longer. Retreat enables us to gain deeper experience of what we are meditating on, which will naturally improve our ability to keep a positive mind and good heart all the time.
Away Retreat, Melody Hills, Magaliesburg
October 2025
- “I am deeply grateful for the support and insight I received during the retreat. Kelsang Mila was exceptionally kind and attentive, creating a safe and welcoming environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and exploring new practices.”
- “This experience has encouraged me to continue my journey and to visit the centre in Craighall Park soon. I also plan to introduce my adult son, as I believe he would benefit greatly from this environment of calm and compassion.”
“Thank you for a truly meaningful and enriching experience.”
