Viveka Vana ~ “The Forest of Discernment.”
Rooted in the ancient wisdom of mindfulness and meditation, it is a place where one can pause, reflect, and cultivate clarity of heart and mind.

Nestled in the peaceful forests of Magnetawan, Ontario, Viveka Vana Retreat Centre offers a sanctuary for those seeking stillness and connection — with nature and with themselves. Surrounded by nature beauty and tranquil lakefront, it provides a nurturing environment for the practice of mindfulness, yoga, and holistic wellness.

Here, the quiet rhythm of the forest supports the deepening of awareness and presence. Through meditation, mindful movement, yoga and restorative practices, guests are invited to slow down, be gentle, breathe deeply, live clearly, and realign with the natural flow of life.

At Viveka Vana, peace is not something to be found — it is something remembered.
