Kloster Auszeit (Münsterland): Slow & Yin Yoga, Mindfulness, Meditation—Strengthening Inner Peace

Room Reservations and Meals: Please note that the costs for rooms and meals are not included in the seminar price. However, we have reserved a special block of rooms for our group. When making your reservation, please indicate in the “Comments” section whether you would like a double room or a single room. Vinnenberg Monastery will bill you directly for these costs:
Costs for a lovely single room with shared bathroom (for 2–3 rooms) with full board per person starting at 80 euros; for 2 nights = 160.00 €
Cost for a single room with bathroom/toilet, including full board, per person starting at 90 euros; for 2 nights = 180.00 €
Cost for a double room with private bathroom/toilet and full board per person starting at 80 euros; for 2 nights = 160.00 €
If you’re booking for your companion at the same time, please provide their name both when making the reservation and when booking the room at the monastery. This helps us streamline the process. If you’d like separate invoices, please make two separate reservations. Thank you for your cooperation!

In the morning, we’ll be treated to a hearty breakfast. A full meal will be served at lunch and dinner as well. There’s a wide selection of fish, vegetarian, and vegan options. Full board is arranged for our group, though it is not included in the seminar price. Special dietary needs (allergies) can be accommodated. Please specify this when making your reservation.

If you prefer vegetarian or vegan meals, please also specify this when booking.
