Mindfulness yoga according to the 5 elements - Chiemgau

Listen to your body and become still. Find out what is good for you. Immerse yourself in the stillness that is within you. Recharge your batteries and regenerate. Come with us into the mountain world of the Chiemgau. The Mountain Retreat Center is a retreat in the most beautiful natural surroundings.

Retreat to the Mountain Retreat Center in the Chiemgau mountains. The Retreat Center has 19 rooms with views of the impressive natural landscape of the Alps. It can happen that you are amazed out of nowhere. Again and again. Each of our rooms is a special kind of retreat in its own right. Small, fine, cozy. Some have their own bathroom and toilet, some share a bathroom and toilet with other program participants, but all have a washbasin in the room.

The full board at the Mountain Retreat Center is vegetarian and vegan. The most important meal of the day, at least according to the Chinese, is breakfast. That's why we also attach particular importance to a good, healthy breakfast - always including warm porridge. For lunch you enjoy soup, bread and spreads, and in the evening you are treated to a delicious buffet with salad, creative vegetarian-vegan main courses and a dessert. Always freshly cooked and as seasonal as possible. Intolerances can be catered for by prior arrangement.

Immerse yourself in a world of mindfulness during your daily yoga and meditation practice. The themes of the sessions are tailored to the different meridian cycles. Through long stretches that make your body flexible, harmonize your emotions and calm your mind, Yin Yoga has a holistic effect.

The morning sessions are gentle and precise. Move from Yang to Yin. Practice flowing sequences of movements according to the 5 elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Supplemented by pranayama (breathing exercises), yoga nidra and guided meditation. The afternoon sessions are dedicated to gentle yoga and yin yoga according to the 5 elements. Through conscious awareness of the body, we can realize that we are "just" our body. Anatomically healthy asanas and guided relaxation, invigorating breathing exercises and activation of the chakras bring strength and joie de vivre.

The Mountain Retreat Center is located in the German Chiemgau region, on the border with Austria.
