Summary

We invite you to get to know the principle of active relaxation through attention training with us. We will practise this through body and mind exercises in a small, individual group (max. 8 participants). In our biologically renovated, 350-year-old half-timbered house with its own guest rooms, kitchen, yoga room, library, outdoor log sauna, natural garden with roofed shed, we have an environment ready for you that will enable you to strengthen your life forces.

Instead of "letting your soul dangle", we will give you suggestions on how to train the powers of the soul (thinking, feeling, willing) so that you can shape your everyday life with vigor and a supporting thought will accompany you in everything you undertake.

The hosts took care of us guests attentively and extensively, without making you feel crowded or lonely. The accommodation was clean and warm, the food excellent and the excursions into nature very beneficial. The herb or incense hike gave us all new knowledge and also spurred us to collect herbs for our little New Year's Eve ritual. There was always enough space for joint activities but also for retreats. All in all, everything was just satisfactory and I would gladly book again directly!
