Integrating Mindfulness Meditation Retreats in Canada

Meditate in the B.C. Rockies

Space to unwind and rediscover your true nature.

If you are looking for space and solitude in a beautiful natural setting for your personal transformation and wellness, then a Private Cabin Retreat may be right for you. 

Whether this is your first retreat or one of many, we can help you create a retreat that supports your unfoldment.

  • Daily check-ins or optional meditation guidance with an experienced guide;
  • 1-2 hours of mindful activity (Karma Yoga) to ground and provide balance;
  • Meditation books and materials available.

Choose this package if you:

  • Have experience with meditation and you already have a practice or are looking to establish a regular practice;
  • Can comfortably meditate for at least 30-minutes;
  • Welcome a balance of formal sitting meditation with optional mindful activities (Karma Yoga) such as gardening, harvesting or cleaning with your personal practice;
  • You want to experience increased wellness, calm and rejuvenation by retreating in beautiful nature.

Private Silent Meditation Retreats are a solo experience. They are not for everyone. If you are not comfortable spending time alone, or if you’d prefer more support and connection with others, we recommend an online course, group retreat or our Three Month Intensive.

FAQ

“Before enlightenment; chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment; chop wood, carry water.” -Zen Koan

Karma Yoga is the practice of bridging mindful awareness with your actions. 

It is central to our practice at Clear Sky because we believe that bringing mindful awareness into our activities makes us more more clear, compassionate and effective at work, at home and in our relationships. And from there we can change the world!

Mindful Karma Yoga can include seasonal activities such as:

  • General maintenance on the property (for example, chopping firewood or shovelling snow in the fall and winter);
  • Gardening, weeding, and harvesting in our garden or food forest (spring & summer);
  • Simple ironing or cleaning activities. 

People often find this a supportive part of their day, particularly in a short retreat. They report feeling more energized and focussed when they go back to their formal practice.

We’re at 3567 Cockell Road, Bull River, B.C., Canada.
