Retreats and recollections are both forms of spiritual practice that involve taking time away from the distractions of daily life to focus on one's spiritual growth and development. However, there are some differences between the two:

​

1. Length: Retreats are usually longer than recollections. A retreat can last anywhere from a weekend to several weeks, while a recollection typically lasts for one day or part of a day.

2. Format: Retreats are often structured around a particular theme or practice, such as silent meditation or yoga. Recollections, on the other hand, may be less structured and may involve a variety of activities, such as group prayer or personal reflection.

3. Intensity: Because retreats are longer and more focused, they can be more intense than recollections. Participants may be asked to observe periods of silence, adhere to a strict schedule, or engage in challenging practices such as fasting or long periods of meditation.

4. Purpose: Both retreats and recollections are designed to facilitate spiritual growth and development. However, retreats are often seen as more transformative, while recollections are seen as a way to deepen one's existing spiritual practice.

 

Both retreats and recollections can be valuable tools for spiritual growth and development, and the choice between the two will depend on an individual or organization's preferences, needs, and schedule.

​

Each retreat and recollection is designed specifically to respond to the needs of the individual, school, or company. It can be done either online or in-person.
