The good retreat guide

"This authoritative guide is used by people everywhere who need to find a place where the world will not intrude - a place aside to nurture the spirit, heal the body and bring peace. Whatever your beliefs, it offers the greatest choices of retreats, from monasteries to holistic holidays and explains: the purpose of a retreat, what you do on one and how to make the most of it, the many diverse kinds of retreat, from yoga and meditation to Interfaith or Holistic, and the benefit of spiritual exercises for self-development and better health."--Publisher's description.
