“Through the portals of silence the healing sun of wisdom and peace will shine upon you”
The silent meditation retreat was an amazing opportunity to unplug and rejuvenate in a nurturing, natural environment. To be amongst the trees and beautiful gardens was so satisfying to my soul and spirit. I feel reborn. Liz, Sacramento, CA

What Others Are Saying
A place where you can connect with your Inner Peace, Nature and Higher Self. Everyone in this busy world of ours would benefit form a silent retreat at Ananda Meditation Retreat. Veronika Winski, Huntington Beach, CA
I discovered the value of not using my words, of being humbled through the silence to connect spiritually, and the value of taking in the joy of service and solitude. I feel strengthened, inspired and freed by staying connected in every moment. J. E., santa Rosa, CA
I came here because I needed to gain a sense of clarity and balance as I work to resolve some painful life experiences this year. Through the 3-day silent retreat, I was able to get in touch with a deep sense of peace and light within me. I know now how to access that spiritual core because of the tools and practices made available in this wonderful retreat.
