An intensive time-out with Qi Gong

The Eight Brocade Exercises of Qi Gong, forest bathing (Shinrin Yoku), Wabi Sabi and the philosophy of East Asia combine to create an intensive and wonderful time-out in the vastness of the Mühlviertel hills

The Vierkanthof in a secluded location with a view over the hilly landscape of the Mühlviertel offers the ideal atmosphere for a sustainable break. Try out new things, clear your head and feel the impetus for change. You will find retreat and peace at the natural swimming pond, in the woods and in the vastness of the gently rolling landscape. Enjoy moments of relaxation in the pine-scented sauna and in the evening in a cozy atmosphere around the fire bowl.

Modern, vegetarian-vegan cuisine awaits you at the Kleebauer Hof Retreat Center. Start the day with a feel-good breakfast with breads, jams, cheese, freshly prepared porridge, fruit, various types of milk, yogurt, fruit juices, spreads, coffee and different teas. At 2 pm we serve you a light lunch with a warming soup and spreads with bread or pastries.

Would you like to recover physically and mentally and get to know a completely different world view? And find out what this can do for you in everyday life? The Kleebauer Hof Retreat Center combines the philosophy and wisdom of East Asia with holistic exercises.

Let go of perfectionism and get to know the Wabi-Sabi approach to recognize the beauty in imperfection, to be authentically imperfect and to enjoy the moment. You will therefore learn the Qi Gong exercises of Ba Duan Jin - the eight brocade exercises - in a perfectly imperfect way: holistically and with a feeling for the essentials, in order to then go into detail, both practically and philosophically.

And on many occasions we will be outdoors, enjoying the soothing forest air, getting to know the healing trio of the forest and connecting with nature. There will be plenty of opportunities to unwind, alone or in a group, to talk, ask questions and philosophize together.
