Mindfulness Yoga Based on the Five Elements – Chiemgau

Ziehen Sie sich zurück in das Mountain Retreat Center in der Chiemgauer Bergwelt. Das Retreat Center hat 20 Zimmer mit Ausblick in die beeindruckende Naturlandschaft der Alpen. Da kann es schon passieren, dass man aus dem Nichts ins Staunen kommt. Immer wieder aufs Neue. Jedes unserer Zimmer ist für sich ein Rückzugsort der besonderen Art. Klein, fein, gemütlich.

All meals at the Mountain Retreat Center are vegetarian and vegan. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day—at least according to the Chinese. That’s why we place special emphasis on a good, healthy breakfast—always featuring warm porridge. For lunch, you’ll enjoy soup, bread, and spreads, and in the evening, you’ll be treated to a delicious buffet featuring salad, creative vegetarian and vegan main courses, and dessert. Everything is freshly prepared and, whenever possible, made with seasonal ingredients. We can accommodate food intolerances with advance notice.

Immerse yourself in a world of mindfulness through daily yoga and meditation practice. The themes of each session are tailored to the various meridian pathways. Through long-held stretches that increase your body’s flexibility, harmonize your emotions, and calm your mind, Yin Yoga offers a holistic experience.

The morning sessions are gentle and precise. You move from Yang into Yin. Practice flowing sequences based on the 5 elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Complemented by Pranayama (breathing exercises), Yoga Nidra, and guided meditations. The afternoon sessions are dedicated to gentle yoga and Yin Yoga based on the 5 elements. Through conscious awareness of the body, we can come to understand that we are “merely” our bodies. Anatomically sound asanas and guided relaxation, invigorating breathing exercises, and the activation of the chakras bring us strength and a zest for life.

Through the practice of Yoga Nidra, our nervous system regenerates at the deepest level, and we find the alignment that leads us into the depths. We immerse ourselves in the silence where we can perceive the voice of our innermost wisdom. To help us feel the power of silence more clearly, we spend individual yoga sessions in silence.

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