Messengers of Joy and Wretches I: Year-End Series in the Vulkaneifel

My clients usually find their own accommodations in the surrounding area. That’s simply because everyone has different preferences. Some want their own apartment, while others might just want a simple room. Both options are available in the immediate vicinity.

But perhaps you’d prefer a complete package for your retreat? Our healing retreat also offers guest rooms. If available, you’re welcome to stay with us. The guest rooms are located in the adjacent building. They have their own entrance and access to the garden. You’ll share the kitchen and bathroom with your roommates. Please feel free to talk to me about this.

Meals are not included, as everyone’s needs vary greatly. You decide for yourself what’s best for you. Generally, you can prepare your own meals at your accommodations—either you have your own kitchen or at least a place to cook, or there are options that include breakfast or even an on-site restaurant. In Daun, there are large supermarkets, bars, and restaurants.

Depending on the participants’ preferences, the retreat can be offered as a 3- or 5-day workshop. In the 3-day version, we work 5 hours per day; in the 5-day version, we work 3 hours per day.

Schedule for the 3-Day Retreat:

Day 1
Reflection on the past year:
What went well, and what didn’t go so well?
What do we want to let go of, and what do we want to focus on more in the new year?

Farewell ritual
Letting go of unwanted things

Day 2
New Year’s resolutions:
Creative expression
Banishing negative influences
Focusing on the most important resolutions

Day 3
Applying this to daily life:
We bring our intentions into the world—supported by the elements of fire, earth, water, and air.

Are you planning a longer stay—over Christmas or even through the New Year? Then you might be interested in our combo packages:

On your own. If you’d like to explore the area a bit outside of the retreat program or head to more distant starting points for hikes or walks, we recommend traveling by car.

Traveling by train: The Gerolstein train station is 14 km away from us. From there, you can reach us by bus (advance reservation by phone required) or by taxi. If the timing works out, we can also arrange a pickup.
