Over 400 Places to Find Peace and Spiritual Renewal in Britain, Ireland, France and Spain
Fully Revised and Updated
Most of us at some time or other long to find a place where the business, noise and stress of the world will not intrude - a place which nurtures the spirit and gives us a chance to be at peace. By going on a retreat you have a chance to get away from it all, reflect on your life and relationships - even gain a new vision - and return home refreshed.
This book explains:
- the purpose of a retreat and what you do on one
- the many different kinds, including meditation and contemplation
- how some have themes e.g. painting, walking, gardening and music
- the benefit of spiritual exercises for self-development.
