Our Story: We founded Quiet Mind to create a mindful, peaceful and serene sanctuary where people could come home to their true hearts and minds. After 20 years of having retreat centers across the world through Mindfulness Meditation Centers, we decided to create a place that was the perfect fusion of a a relaxing retreat and wellness centered lodging. We are a husband and wife team, who are Buddhist teachers, meditation practitioners as well as mindful relationship therapists. Our love for inner awakening, travel, mindfulness and nature led us to create Quiet Mind Mountain, a peaceful retreat and lodge in nature where our guests can reconnect with peace, well being and nature.
