Interested in a Meditation Retreat?

IMS operates two adjacent retreat facilities – the Retreat Center and the Forest Refuge. Both are set on some 200 secluded wooded acres, located in the quiet countryside of central Massachusetts.

The Retreat Center has offered structured meditation courses for new and experienced meditators for over 30 years. Retreats range in duration from a weekend to three months.

The Forest Refuge is specifically designed to support the practice of more experienced meditators. Its program encourages the exploration of sustained, longer-term personal retreats.
