Hi!
As I’m starting to get ready for supervision, I’m looking for silent retreats in Europe, preferably in France.
As a European living in the USA with a toddler, it’s much easier for me to do a retreat in Europe where we have grandparents to help, besides my husband, for childcare during my retreat :-)
I know of the Gaia House institute, but are there any other places that would qualify? Where do all the European teachers go for their retreats? Would be very happy to hear from all of you!
Hello Merel,
Nice to meet you :-)
I’ve listed several places in Europe where to find silent retreats, some of them being taught in French, other in English. You can find the list here:

I hope this will help.
Warmly,
Gwénola
There is a silent retreat from February 23- March 9. You can do only one week but the second week introduces you to Shambhala Meditation which is a slight shift in focus that I have found very powerful.
It is held at Dechen Choling which is outside Limoges. telephone: 33-555-035 552 web:www.dechencholing.org
