SAILING INTO THE ESSENCE OF BEING
Do you long for an intense, authentic sense of BEING, for a deep connection to yourself?…
Curious about a life in direct communion with the elements?
Are you seeking genuine contact with your body, wanting to explore your own unique perceptions and impulses?
BELAUHOSEGELREISEN opens up new horizons for you and accompanies you on your journey.
The sea and its shores offer an ideal playground for this, with seemingly endless possibilities. On our sailboat BRISA, we can live within this wonderful, boundless space, play with the winds and waves, enjoy pure sunlight, clear air, and pure joy of life—but also confront our fears and other shadow issues to gain clarity and strength. The awareness of our bodies as they interact with the ship and the forces of nature is our most important tool for the journey into our inner realms and across the sea.
The journey takes place as ONE-ON-ONE COACHING. Up to 3 fellow travelers are welcome by arrangement.

A relaxed “round of introductions” to discuss concerns, wishes, and expectations will take place no later than the first evening.
How everyone is feeling, questions, dreams, feedback… of course at any time (except during docking, undocking, or sailing maneuvers) …and at least once a day, a detailed “round” to discuss all processes, perspectives, and “areas for improvement” that arise
Depending on the weather, the course of the trip, and the mood of the group, we’ll spend the nights at anchor or in harbors.
