August retreat in Kecskemét

6–9 August 2026 — 4 days / 3 nights

Granada Conference, Wellness and Sport Hotel

Summer silence in Kecskemét

Four days with nothing to do but meditate and rest. The August retreat is held at the Granada Hotel in Kecskemét — on the edge of town, next to the forest, in quiet surroundings, with the hotel’s wellness facilities available to us.

The retreat is built around longer group meditation programmes. When a large group meditates together for an extended period, the rest goes far deeper than in everyday practice at home, and deeper stress can release with it. That is why the experience is quite unlike an ordinary meditation: many participants remember these as the clearest, quietest days of their year.

Catering is vegetarian or vegan, the retreat closes with a celebration, and there is plenty of rest built into the schedule. The daily timetable is set on site, to fit the group.

Who is it for?

The retreat is for people who have already learned Transcendental Meditation, and for practitioners of the sidhi programme. If you have not learned the technique yet, start with a personal consultation or the TM course.

Meals and allergies

Three vegetarian or vegan meals are served each day. Food allergies and gluten-free or lactose-free requirements must be declared when you register — a surcharge may apply.

Registration

Booking and payment go through the organiser, András Dömsödi. The fee is non-refundable, but up to 30 days before the start it can be transferred to another retreat.

The retreat is run in Hungarian.
