Assisi Retreats Meditation Room
We have created a beautiful meditative space
where the grace of Assisi touches us deeply.
Our meditation room is just off the flowered courtyard garden at the Hotel. It is open all day for you to use for continued meditation or yoga practice. You have access to our yoga props, library and quiet space between meditation sessions. This room is reserved exclusively for our retreat guests.
Generally meditation is at 9 am, 3 pm and 6 pm. We lead heart centered meditation to feel the peace of Assisi all around us and the deep stillness within. |
The heart based meditation provides the contemplation for the day and when practiced during the retreat stay, lessens mental activity while bringing us closer to our inner peace and love.
Each day we practice gentleness to ourselves and others, softening our awareness and honoring our humanness. Each retreat provides suggestions about how to continue your retreat in your daily life. Meditation benches, cushions or chairs are provided. The meditation periods are a spiritual support and an anchor for your retreat. |
Gentle Walks with Meditation in the Sacred Sites
Each day we take gentle walks to the holy sites of Assisi. We are filled with the exquisite and unique beauty of this ancient town. We feel carried by the peace here. |

Old Assisi Residents bring kindness back to our heart
This is Columbo, one of my dearest old Assisi friends. He is the embodiment of what Assisi gives to each person that comes. Assisi is a sweet hug from the universe and supports each person to find that sweetness in their heart. We welcome you to Assisi, Italy and our retreats of Simple Peace,
