The Moulin is first and foremost a place 'to
be', a place for connection with oneself, with others and with Nature.
We offer a beautiful setting, caring supportive conditions, and
practices and teachings for awakening our life, awakening to Life
itself.
Grounded
in the Buddhist tradition of Vipassana or Insight Meditation, Le Moulin
hosts a varied selection of retreats, workshop and courses with
resident teacher Martin Aylward and invited teachers in both the
Buddhist tradition and in various contemporary approaches to awakening.
To
stay at Le Moulin is to explore heart, body and mind through silent
meditation, individual and group guidance, discussion and dialogue, and
community support.
Be
nourished by our warm supportive atmosphere, inspiring and beautiful
gardens, and delicious, mostly organic meals... as well as the
transformative inner work of training the mind and freeing the heart!
People
from any or no spiritual background are welcome, with or without
previous meditation experience. Families are also welcome as part of
our integrated approach to awakening in the midst of life!
Whether
you come and join in one of the retreats or events or just come as a
personal retreatant, staying for any length of time from May to
August….. Bienvenue, we look forward to meeting you here.

We
have enjoyed seeing many people pass through the doors and the gardens
of Le moulin this season, as we offered many different retreats with
resident teacher Martin Aylward as well as other visiting teachers.
Check
out our calendar for next year, which offers another varied and
interesting programme.
Meanwhile we wish you all a peaceful winter and hope to welcome you next year to the Moulin
