Summary

Time for you to clear your mind and boost your presence.

For whom: Entrepreneurs, freelancers, and go-getters whose work, expectations, and relationships are constantly at odds under chronic stress.
What: 2.5 days of radical reflection featuring breathwork, a men’s circle, and a focus on genuine self-discovery (without any psycho-jargon).

When: June 26–28, 2026, or Oct. 16–18, 2026.
Investment: Starting at approx. €816 total (€550 for the retreat plus hotel).

When success comes at a cost:
At work, you’re fully present, delivering results and ensuring success. But in your personal life, you’re often miles away. Your mind is racing, your patience is wearing thin, and genuine closeness with your partner or family becomes a challenge. If success means losing touch with yourself, it’s time for a reset.

What this is really about:
This men’s retreat in Brandnertal (Austria) is not a temporary escape. It is a radical, 2.5-day pause for entrepreneurs, self-employed individuals, and doers. Two and a half days to cut through the constant tension.

What you’ll achieve during this short men’s retreat:
Regulate your nervous system: Step out of “functioning” and into “feeling.”
Recognize your needs: Learn to take your own boundaries seriously again.
Relationship skills: Only those who are in touch with themselves can act clearly and confidently in both their professional and personal lives.

Nature. Clarity. Presence.
The program for your 2.5-day reset:

Breathwork Basics
The most direct path from the mind to the body.

"What is served at our gourmet hotel in Vorarlberg tastes of responsibility. Because it contains not only pure, natural ingredients from the immediate vicinity, but above all passion and honest values. Respect for animal life, a connection to the region, and a clear rejection of throwaway culture and packaging madness."

I felt very comfortable in the small group that was unknown to me at the beginning. The exercises and conversations were very demanding, profound, and instructive. I was able to benefit greatly from this seminar and will try to implement this in everyday life as well.
