Immerse yourself in the quiet depths of your inner world and discover a source of strength that can enrich your life in the long term. In a phase of conscious contemplation, you will learn to calm your mind, let go of thoughts and experience deep inner peace. Step by step, this creates more serenity, clarity and presence - a state that helps you to face life with stability and inner expansiveness 🌿.
You will be accompanied by an experienced spiritual teacher and yoga master whose presence will inspire, touch and encourage you to experience yourself in a new way. The mindful atmosphere of the Yoga Vidya Westerwald Ashram - a place of strength and stillness, far away from everyday life 🏞️ - will help you reconnect with your inner self. Depending on your orientation and the time of year, you can choose from several retreats:
💫 The Wholeness Retreat - Arriving in true happiness from 08-13.02.2026 invites you to feel yourself on a deep level and come into balance holistically. In a space full of mindfulness, yoga, meditation (Vipassana/Vedanta), sound and bodywork, you will open yourself up to new life force. Music, bhakti, mantra chanting, yoga nidra and impulses from Ayurveda support you in experiencing inner healing. In intuitive practice and personal sessions, you will find access to your essence - connected with yourself and life.
📖 In the silent retreat with a journey through the Bhagavad Gita from 24-29.05.2026, you will immerse yourself deeply in silence. Guided meditations with verses from the Gita (Sanskrit & German) three times a day will give you direct access to the wisdom of this timeless text. The focus is on chapters 2, 6, 11 and 18. Yoga classes and satsang deepen the experience - a retreat for all those who want to unite silence, knowledge and devotion.
This retreat is aimed at participants with good prior knowledge of hatha yoga, meditation and yoga philosophy. For beginners, we recommend a preparatory introductory seminar 🙏.
