Silent Meditation Retreats

deerheart sanctuary is held to foster silent contemplation. This land and its forest set the sacred silence and deerheart's spaces are built to honour it.

Periodically we offer multi-day silent meditation retreats where small, intimate groups have the opportunity to gather in exploration.

We offer silent meditation retreats as part of our own practice and enter retreat as our own commitment to truth. We invite all meditators to join us for any part of retreat.

Accommodation and meals can be arranged.

Please see the retreat schedule (opens in a new window) or the calendar for current retreat offerings.

Informal Retreats

Besides our periodic formal silent meditation retreats, deerheart is open as an informal retreat space. Come be with us anytime, and know we hold the space for silence. We also have ongoing community programs that you are invited to attend. Check out the calendar for what's going on in the near future.

These informal retreats can include:

• accommodation

• meditation or yoga periods
• scheduled programs
• bodywork
• energy readings
• guided hiking

If you are interested in designing your own retreat, have a look at the accommodation choices and talk to us. An interview is required.

Please note that all guests are asked to refrain from all alcohol and recreational drug use while at deerheart.
