by Radhakrishnan K Gurudas

Retreats are not only a major part of practicing insight meditation but can also prove to be very effective as an alternative to group therapy. Working together as a group and spending time meditating together each day helps in building concentration and focus and revitalizes the mind and body with a positive energy.

There are a number of meditation retreats centers that offer a number of services all of which pertain to meditation in addition to providing a place for people to get together as a group and avail the joint benefits of practicing meditation.
