I need discipline in my life and a way to get rid of some torturous

It's probably a big ass bait, but I'll answer.

Every country accept solo foreign women in SE Asia, maybe Brunei would bother you, and barely.

For a retreat, there are islands cut off from everything in Cambodia (like 2h/day of electricity, no Internet, no mobile network).
Koh Rong used to be like that but apparently, they are not as remote as before (they have internet and are connected to the electric grid now). I guess you can find a similar one along the coast.

Also, Laos anywhere away from the main attractions (Luang Prabang, Vientiane, plain of jars), it's a very peaceful place. I guess you could stay at a buddhist temple. You can expect English from some monks.

Outside of SEA, I actually did some kind of retreat in Taiwan. There is a Christian church in the Taroko gorges which welcomes people doing that (I'm not even Christian, btw). It's in the middle the forest, bordered by some Buddhist temples. In the church square, there is some sort of inn with a Japanese flair. They have Japanese style rolled mattress and rooms with sliding doors to sleep. The innkeeper can make food.
It's incredibly peaceful, quiet, relaxing. Highly recommended.

Are they strict? Do they have a firm schedule for things and hours of meditation/prayer?

Buddhist monks ? Yes, they have a quite busy schedule, and it's strict. Howevr, you're not allowed to follow them all day.

You can join them for some specific prayer, but they won't "teach" you much or introduce you to shit, it won't be tourism.

Another guy here. Is it possible to stay in these sort of sanctuaries for a long time? I'm just thinking about if it's possible to stay there for two weeks or so? I'm no believer either but being at piece with oneself and it's surroundings are something I can't experience anywhere except by my parent's place.

There are places better suited for this in India and Nepal, check these out.

Honestly this sort of thing sounds like a job for Ayahuasca. Meditation, and particularly Zen, are limited. Check into retreats in Iquitos, Peru on ayaadvisor.

Try a 10 day vipassana retreat. You'll have what you need there.

My mom went to one in Thailand. She absolutely loved it. She's still a cunt though.

Me and psychedelics don't mix well.
