The term retreat has several related meanings, all of which have in common the notion of safety or temporarily removing oneself from one's usual environment.
A retreat is generally a time of solitude, prayer, or meditation conducted in a remote location, either privately, or at a retreat centre such as a monastery. Regular retreats are considered essential in Buddhism, and they are also popular in many Christian churches, including evangelical Protestants, Roman Catholics and Anglicans.
