10 Things...Spiritual Retreats in the UK

Retreats are an integral part of some spiritual traditions.  Others have retreats almost as an "optional extra".

People feel the need to go on them for many reasons.  The idea is to retreat from everyday life and take time to reflect, contemplate and reconnect with your spirituality.  

They can be a time of solitude or a community event.

We've got a list (not exhaustive!) of 10 around the UK from varying spiritual practices.  Some of these only hold a couple of year but are good to keep in mind for next year.  

I've already sent off for one brochure, which one catches your eye?
