The August 2026 Mindfulness Retreat at Meditation Island, Koh Phaluai is a 7-day mindfulness meditation retreat in Thailand, created for those who wish to deepen awareness, inner calm, and simplicity through sustained meditation practice. Set on a quiet tropical island surrounded by forest and open sky, the retreat offers a supportive environment for stepping away from daily distractions and returning to mindful living.

Gentle guidance is provided throughout the retreat, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced practitioners.
