SEVEN-DAY RETREAT IN CHIANG MAI

Experience Happiness From Within
in the Midst of Picturesque Mountains of Chiang Mai

The Middle Way Meditation Retreat would like to welcome you to join our seven-day meditation program near the Obluang National Park in the northern province of Chiang Mai.

At the Middle Way Meditation Village, you will find a near-forest environment, a sanctuary for meditators surrounded by picturesque hills and mountainous scenery at 1,120 meters above the sea level. The village offers simple, clean and comfortable accommodation, enabling you to live in close touch with nature.

 

The serenity and natural beauty of the surroundings make the village an ideal place for meditation and conducive for listening to your inner voice that might have been silenced by hectic lifestyles, busy schedules and multiple responsibilities. So, why not give yourself a treat and discover the simple joy, relaxation and life-changing benefits that the Dhammakaya meditation brings?

 

The Program

Our meditation course is designed to provide balanced mental and body relaxation and fitness. Breathing in the fresh air of the mountains and hearing the birds sing in the morning, you will feel you are one with nature, peaceful, relaxed and refreshed, ready to take on life challenges when you leave our village. And, with meditation lessons from experienced instructors and guided practice, you will gain more mental energy, new insights and, most importantly, inner peace.
