Accompanied individual retreat - Your time in essence

You want to be alone, withdraw, have some peace and quiet, time for yourself. At least four days, maybe longer.

You want to reflect undisturbed on what is really important to you right now, time to recognize and understand what is really important in your life at the moment and in general. Time for the essentials.

You want to come back to yourself and move forward from there, both professionally and privately.

You want to take a deep breath and wait. To consciously feel yourself. Resonate with what is around you.

Be still, give the emergence of impulses a chance, give your potential space. You want to get into the flow. Be creative, develop something, envision something, express something when it fits.

You are looking for a place where nobody wants anything from you, nobody disturbs you and you don't have to do justice to anyone other than yourself. No obligations, no program, no group, no fixed daily routine, no all-round care.

You want it to be simple, without frills and yet comfortable and without a long journey to a distant, exotic country.

You don't need an online course, but a real place where you can feel connected despite a quiet retreat. Connected. In peace and in motion.

Whether sitting, lying down, dreaming, meditating, walking, jogging, cycling, painting, writing, singing, modeling... in resonance with the place, the things, nature, the animals - and yourself.

You are looking for a simple and balanced place as a basis for the intensive path to yourself and back into the world.

In a very rural region between the Baltic Sea and the Elbe floodplains, Hamburg and Berlin, the LüttenHof is unspectacular and yet unobtrusively radiant. Outside a small village, set back on a little road with hardly any traffic, it offers a retreat and the experience of connection at the same time. This is where I live and work.

For retreats, there is only a retreat hut (room with bathroom, mini kitchen, private entrance, private outdoor seating area) and a camper van site, so you will hardly experience any distraction from others.

As an experienced, open and empathic body and movement psychotherapist, holistic coach and gaiomancy consultant, I will support you in your process. We will discuss and plan the exact content and process together - in a way that suits you.

The farm consists of several clinker brick buildings on a plot of around 4000m², surrounded by fields on three sides. It was renovated in 2023, leaving some clay straw walls open, which creates a natural and balanced indoor climate. The old wooden floor has also been left in its original state.

The house houses a consulting practice, my private living quarters and a "PausenKlause" for people who want to treat themselves to an intensive time-out or a guided retreat.

It is a room with a 1.60m wide bed at a comfortable height, its own bathroom with a walk-in shower, a mini kitchen, its own entrance with a glazed porch and its own outdoor seating area.

The furnishings are tastefully simple, organic and functional.

At the end of the site, there is a paved motorhome parking space next to the field. Here you can stand between sunrise and sunset and sometimes the deer and cranes come to the car. Electricity can be provided. On request, it is possible to share the bathroom in the house.

I ask all guests not to fry meat not only in the house but also on the grounds.
Smoking is permitted on the grounds in consideration of others and the risk of fire.

You should allow yourself at least four days for an individual retreat. It takes time to arrive at yourself and the place. It takes time to devote yourself intensively to your own topic without having to think about leaving again.

You are welcome to use the space for yourself without mentoring and for a freely chosen duration.

If you wish, we can arrange meetings that will initially and repeatedly lead you into presence and to the essentials through awareness and mindfulness stimuli and the "path of the good question".

In these meetings, you will find questions, exercises, tasks and also helpful affirmations that you can deal with throughout the day or that will move you throughout the day.

You will also find out exactly which is the right way for you to deal with your topic at the moment. Which action or inaction and which environment supports you right now and why?

Is it peace, stillness or movement? Is it creativity? Painting, writing, making sounds, singing, sculpting? Perhaps a trip to the hairdresser, gardening, a trip to the seaside or even a stroll through the city? Does an indoor space or a place in nature support you? Fire, water, earth, air, metal? Day or night?

In our regular meetings, we will reflect on your experiences, insights or newly raised questions. You will review the old tasks, exercises and themes for their current validity and, if it makes sense, new ones will be sought and found.

The boundaries to therapeutic or coaching aspects can be fluid.

Before you decide on a retreat with mentoring units, we will have a preliminary discussion to determine whether it is the right time and the right path for you at this time.

Despite its secluded outlying location, the farm is also easy to reach by public transport, as an on-call bus runs every hour from Ludwigslust station to the village three hundred meters away, sometimes stopping in front of our gate.
The on-call bus must be booked two hours in advance or ordered by telephone.
