Finding Peace and Energy at Metanoia
Last August, my partner and I spent a few days at Metanoia, a retreat center in the mountains of Lebanon — and it was honestly one of the best decisions we’ve made. The place itself is surrounded by calm and beauty; you can immediately feel the peaceful energy as soon as you arrive. We were introduced to the retreat by George, who leads Metanoia. From the start, he made us feel welcome and comfortable. During one of our sessions, we were lucky to experience the energies with him — and we could really feel them. It was an amazing and eye-opening moment where we discovered new sides of ourselves and abilities we didn’t know existed. The conversations with George were deep and thoughtful. He has a way of reminding you of the simple, important things in life — the things we often overlook in our daily routines. For us, living a fast-paced and stressful life filled with business and responsibilities, this retreat was exactly what we needed to pause, breathe, and restart.

A beautiful escape from the outside world to go inside
I visited metanoia several times and each time was more special than the other. The energy in the space and the great welcoming of George and Sreekumar made us feel like home. It’s a place that you don’t want to leave. It’s full of peace, quite, great healthy food in the middle of the beautiful nature of baakline. I highly recommend this space where you can relax, escape the hassle of the daily life and dive into deep discussions. Metanoia was more than a retreat center. It connected me with amazing people who became friends.

Metanoia is not just a place — it’s an experience.
You know that feeling when you’re searching for something, but you don’t even know what it is? Or when something feels missing inside you, yet you can’t name it? When you look back at your life and think, “What’s the point of it all?” When passion fades, when nothing seems to matter anymore... That’s when you need a space that holds you — that understands you — that gives you time and silence to meet yourself again. A place where time slows down, and the world expands just enough for you to breathe, to feel, to reconnect. If you’ve been searching for such a space — where you can rediscover yourself in your own way, surrounded by genuine, healing presence — Metanoia is where you’ll find it. Come as you are… and let the rest unfold naturally.

soul’s hug.
Metanoia is the place where I feel most grounded — where true healing happens. It carries a pure energy, the warmth of a home, and the essence of an old soul that seems to know me deeply. From the very first moment I walked in, I felt it was my safe haven — a space that restores my balance and embraces me like a soul’s hug. I’m deeply grateful for this place and the joy of being part of it, as if I’ve returned to a forgotten piece of myself.

Metanoïa, une nuit sans bruit oú même la vie s’est arrêtée
De ces Lounges d’aéroports qui vous accueillaient Pour mieux vous chouchouter Entre deux vols attrapés De ces 3 dernier mètres de surface À remonter avant d’aspirer la première bouffée d’oxygène tant méritée Voilà ce à quoi on languissait Une fois à Metanoïa arrivé Une soupape, un sas, un compartiment dans ce trajet de vie Entre la vie intra utérine et la mort coquine Un état de pause pour savoir apprécier tout ce que l’on avait traversé Tout ce qui avait été arraché, gravé et imbriqué dans nos cellules humanisées Metanoia ce reset, ce sas, cette soupape Qui nous permettait de souffler Entre deux moments de vie Avant la ligne d’arrivée Un endroit qu’il ne fallait pas rater.

For me, Metanoia is my sanctuary whenever I need to recharge, disconnect from the noise of the world, and return to myself. Each time I leave, I feel lighter, calmer, and filled with new energy and peace. What touches me most is the energy of the place. The environment, inside and outside, carries a harmony that makes me feel deeply connected and at ease. The activities, the hosts, and the teachers all reflect that same spirit, creating an experience that feels genuine and nourishing.🌿✨

Metanoia
Metanoia is not a resort and not another trendy yoga spot. It’s a quiet, off-grid sanctuary in the oak hills of the Chouf — far from city noise, free of light pollution and distractions, created for those who feel something inside them is asking for space to breathe.
We welcome people who want to reconnect with their own breath & body, to spend a weekend in silence or prayer, to mark a personal transition, to deepen a practice — whether it’s yoga, meditation, fasting, or simply being in nature.
Metanoia offers both private stays and group retreats, with nourishing meals and warm spaces in winter. At Metanoia you’ll find simplicity — no screens, no city buzz — yet everything essential: authentic guidance, wholesome food, and the quiet needed for genuine transformation.
