Synopsis: New revised and d edition. Over 500 places of spiritual regeneration in the UK, Ireland, France, Spain, Italy, Greece and elsewhere are listed. The Guide also explains the meaning and benefits of retreat and the differences between Buddhist, Christian, Hindu and other centres.
Now in its sixth edition, this popular book is the one sought out by busy people living a hectic lifestyle - everyone in fact who needs to find a place where the noise and stress of the world will not intrude - somewhere which nurtures the spirit and returns you home refreshed. Whatever your beliefs, this guide explains: the purpose of a retreat; what you do on one; the different kinds, including meditation, yoga, and contemplation; how some have themes - like painting, walking, music, healing, and gardening; and the benefit of spiritual exercises for self development.
