About This Directory
Independent, non-commercial directory of healing retreat programs.
Editorial Independence
This directory is not paid placement. We do not accept money to:
- Change listings or rankings
- Mark listings as "verified"
- Remove or add listings
- Modify information
Our goal is to provide transparent, useful information to help you make informed decisions about retreat programs. Verification is based on evidence from primary sources, not on payments or relationships with providers.
How Data Is Collected
We collect information about retreats and providers from:
- Primary Sources: Provider websites, official documentation, public information
- Automated Harvesting: We use automated tools to discover and classify sources from provider websites
- Manual Verification: We verify key information (safety, pricing, dates) against primary sources
- Community Reports: We accept corrections and additional information from users
All sources are documented with URLs, access dates, and what information they support. See our Verification Process for details.
How Corrections Are Handled
If you find incorrect information:
- Use the "Report correction" link on any listing page
- Provide the correct information and sources that confirm it
- We will review and update the listing if the correction is verified
We prioritize corrections that include verifiable sources (provider websites, official documentation).
What "Not Provided" Means
When we mark information as "Not provided" or "Unknown":
- This does not mean the information doesn't exist
- This does not mean it's safe or unsafe
- This means the information is unknown to us
Always confirm critical information directly with the provider. Our directory is a starting point, not a substitute for direct communication.
Non-Commercial Stance
We do not:
- Accept affiliate commissions or booking fees
- Charge providers for listings
- Prioritize listings based on payments
- Include booking buttons or affiliate links
We provide links to provider websites for informational purposes only. All booking and inquiries go directly to providers.
