Summary

Listening, feeling, looking - at nature and into your own inner space. Autumn: What makes me glow, what are my colors, how do I listen to myself? In a small group of 4 to 7 participants, there is time for you and what moves you. Experience your creativity in gentle movement with yoga elements, writing and painting impulses, biographical panorama, relaxing foot and hand baths, massage if desired and cooking together. You will be supervised by two instructors.

Our vicarage offers single accommodation in individually designed guest rooms with private bathrooms, mainly on the second floor (double rooms are also available on special request). In addition, there are several seminar rooms on the first floor (yoga and movement room, writing studio, large creative and community room, massage and discussion room) and the old large vicarage kitchen with dining room, which we use together during this time. There are plenty of places to sit and write in the garden. There is a (writing) table in every room, every parlor.

Catering

We eat vegetarian food and cook together under the guidance of a professional chef using wholesome ingredients from the region. Herbs from the parish garden are available in season. Three meals are included as well as a coffee/tea break with cookies and fruit in the afternoon.

sequence

Arrival is the evening before the seminar, we start by getting to know each other and having dinner together. In the morning, we start the day with gentle movement and stretching, if possible outside, accompanied by a short poem to get us in the mood. After breakfast comes the first creative phase: writing impulses of various kinds, writing from the moment, panorama work on our own biographical themes are always underpinned by physical exercises. Depending on the weather, we are either indoors or outdoors. Foot or hand baths with mutual massage contribute to relaxation. At lunchtime there is a long lunch break of approx. 2 hours to allow time for yourself. This is followed by a shorter creative and relaxation phase. In the evening, we come together after dinner to read, talk or enjoy the silence and work through the day's activities. It is important to us to respond to the needs of the individual and to incorporate them into the evening. The last evening is organized by all participants together.
