Meditating together
You do not need to be a believer to go on a retreat at an abbey. Many abbeys welcome people from all walks of life, whether they are committed to a faith or simply seeking calm, meaning, or inner stillness.
The spiritual setting is offered as a space for experience and discovery, respecting each person's individual journey, with no requirement for religious affiliation.
It is entirely possible to go on a retreat alone at a monastery or abbey. This type of individual retreat offers a time of silence and personal withdrawal, without a specific group program.
Guests generally have access to simple accommodation and an environment conducive to introspection, while sharing certain communal moments that are part of monastic life.
A spiritual retreat at an abbey unfolds according to the rhythm of the place and the community that inhabits it. Retreatants are invited to follow a structured framework, marked by regular times of silence, prayer, and community life.
The day is generally punctuated by the Divine Office, personal time, and moments of rest, offering a stable environment conducive to recollection and meditation.
Abbeys and monasteries do not operate like commercial establishments. The financial contribution requested most often covers the cost of accommodation and meals, according to each person's means. In many places, it is a free-will or suggested offering, so that everyone can go on a retreat regardless of their financial situation.
