Considering they work on donations, even if the NHS subsidised it by paying/donating £200 a week it'd probably still be cheaper than regular NHS treatment.
My partner has a serious mental health issue (that the retreat would NOT be suitable for), and we fought for 2 years to get the specialised treatment required, and it's costing £7k.....per month.
Anyway, that's another story. I just wonder how much it costs the NHS to constantly re-evaluate patients that go in for anxiety 5-10 times a year.
I've seen meditation retreats run on a donation basis in the UK.
The thing for me is always the level of time needed to calm down someone who has been like this daily for years.

Well I found that you can do it without a retreat, at home, with all the stresses of life.
You just have to commit the time you'd usually spend googling problems on something far more constructive. In terms of meditation though, I rarely committed more than 20 minutes a day to it for it to be extremely effective.
Although I probably read about it for three times that long on average
