What should I bring to a meditation retreat?

• Comfortable clothing suitable for meditation and relaxation.

• Personal items such as toiletries, a water bottle, and any medications you may need.

• A journal or notebook for reflections and insights during the retreat.

• Meditation supplies like a cushion or mat, if you prefer your own.

• A reusable bag for carrying items and snacks, if allowed.

Practical Chiang Mai planning note: Retreat rules can be strict and may include silence, simple accommodation and long practice periods. Check the teaching tradition, daily schedule, language, health requirements and what is included before registering.
