Digital Detox & Inner Balance with Qi Gong

Der 800 Jahre alte Vierkanthof in Alleinlage mit Blick über die Hügellandschaft des Mühlviertels bietet die ideale Atmosphäre für eine nachhaltige Auszeit. Neues ausprobieren, den Kopf frei bekommen und Impulse für Veränderung spüren. Rückzug und Ruhe finden Sie am Naturbadeteich, in den Wäldern und in der Weite der sanft-hügeligen Landschaft. Genießen Sie Momente der Entspannung in der nach Zirbenholz duftenden Sauna und abends in gemütlicher Runde rund um die Feuerschale.

At the Kleebauer Hof Retreat Center, you can enjoy modern vegetarian and vegan cuisine. Start your day with a heartwarming breakfast featuring breads, jams, cheese, freshly made porridge, fruit, a variety of milk options, yogurt, fruit juices, spreads, coffee, and a selection of teas. At 2:00 p.m., we serve a light lunch featuring a warming soup as well as spreads with bread or pastries.

Digital media accompany many people from the moment they wake up until they go to sleep. Often, there’s hardly any room left for silence, focused attention, or mindful idleness. This retreat invites you to step away for a few days and refocus your attention on what’s happening in the present moment.

The Kleebauer Hof Retreat Center offers the ideal setting for this. Surrounded by forests, meadows, and the rolling hills of the Mühlviertel, it’s easier to leave everyday life behind. The vastness of the landscape, the tranquility of the location, and the vegetarian and vegan cuisine all help you consciously slow down and recharge your energy.
The retreat focuses on the time-tested methods of qigong. With her extensive experience, Nora Kögl guides you in directing your attention inward through flowing movements, mindful breathing, and targeted exercises. This practice helps reduce stress, harmonize your energy flow, and reconnect with your body as a reliable point of reference.

The program is complemented by mindfulness exercises, quiet moments in nature, and opportunities for reflection. This creates space to recognize habitual behavior patterns and consciously examine your own relationship with digital media. The focus is not on abstinence, but on experiencing what inner peace feels like when external stimuli take a back seat for a while.
