Sky Mind Retreats (SMR) is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving wilderness meditation retreats. Our nature-based retreats are taught in the Buddhist tradition of Vipassana (“Insight”) Meditation. We balance solitude and silence with the supportive companionship of others who are seeking the joy and stillness of a sojourn in the wild. Wilderness meditation has long been understood to deeply support awakening. The stillness of wilderness combines with our mindfulness practice to open us to joy, presence, ease, and a new sense of our connection to the world.

The Sky Mind Retreats Calendar Page is our most up-to-date listing of retreats available.

These web sites will contain fuller descriptions of each retreat. A contact person/registrar for each retreat will be handling your payment, receiving your forms, contacting you about equipment, physical conditioning, meditation practice, or any other questions you might have.

Once you have chosen your retreat, please download the registration forms, print the forms and mail them, with the deposit, to the address indicated on the registration form. Feel free to get in touch with the contact person/registrar for any question or concerns.
