The BHASKARA Autumn Retreat at the beautiful RETTER Bio-Natur Resort in Styria is an invitation to embark on a journey for body, mind, and soul.
Imagine stepping into a space filled with sound and silence—a place where you can let go. Our BHASKARA - Autumn - RETREAT at the picturesque RETTER Bio-Natur Resort in Styria opens the door to a journey back to yourself.
Together, we guide you with time-tested sound spaces and lovingly selected mindfulness exercises. They offer you moments of inner peace and guide you back to your harmony. The gentle yet powerful sounds carry you away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and invite you to experience regeneration on all levels.
Experience deep relaxation at our BHASKARA - Autumn - RETREAT, enriched by imaginative and sound journeys, among other things. The program is complemented by carefully selected body and awareness exercises, including elements of Yin Yoga, accompanied by musical instruments. In this way, we specifically promote your well-being as well as your compassion—both for yourself and for those around you.
This weekend is an oasis of serenity, lightness, and letting go. Here you will find a safe space where thoughts and feelings are allowed to settle. A place you can return to within yourself whenever you need a haven of peace.
During our BHASKARA Fall Retreat, we’ll provide you with tools and inspiration that can be easily integrated into your daily life. This way, you can take the mindfulness you’ve experienced with you—as a companion on your journey ahead, a source of happiness and inner peace, even in challenging times.
We’re by your side—during the retreat and beyond. If you have questions or would like to connect, we’re here for you.
“In silence and sound lies the power to change.”

It is your personal opportunity to consciously pause.
A moment to recharge and rediscover your inner balance and peace.

Award-Winning Organic Slow Food with a Vision
Warm hospitality, regional ingredients, and organically grown produce have been at the heart of our culinary excellence for 30 years. Perfect for family celebrations, weddings, and cozy evenings for two. Dining is especially sunny on the terrace in front of the restaurant and in our à la carte restaurants Muskat and Lorbeer. We cook with passion using certified organic and hand-picked products sourced from within a 25-kilometer radius of Rundumadum. Whether vegan, vegetarian, or hearty. The meat we serve is exclusively organic and free-range, sourced from six farmers in Eastern Styria. Everything is prepared whole, in line with the zero-waste philosophy. Our kitchen team enjoys preparing not only premium cuts but also dishes from grandma’s time, when every part was valued.
Our Principles
Guests are warmly welcomed in a modern, cozy atmosphere—open to the surrounding nature. Banquet tables are lovingly decorated. Special attention is paid to transforming local, certified organic ingredients into delicious creations and delicacies of Styrian cuisine. The restaurant has been certified organic since 2004 and has been awarded a Gault Millau toque and the Green Toque—a seal of quality for wholesome, certified organic cuisine—since 1992. We at Retter say: “Meat is something very special and not a mass-produced commodity!” That is why, for years, our kitchen has exclusively used free-range, regional organic animals such as pork, lamb, veal, and beef, processing the entire animal with respect. Since 2024, the Retter BioGut and Restaurant has also been part of “Slow Food Austria.”
