TAKE SOME TIME FOR YOURSELF: NEW PERSPECTIVES AND A CONSCIOUS LOOK AT WHAT LIES AHEAD:
What do you want to focus on in the new year?
What would you like to see blossom right at the start of the year?
What seeds would you like to plant?
What would you like to let go of?
What could become easier?
Is there a better time to take time for yourself than the start of the year? While nature is still at rest, let’s give ourselves the space to pause, gather new strength, and focus on what is allowed to grow and blossom in the new year—gently, mindfully, and thoughtfully.
A creative program awaits you, featuring insights from positive psychology, the science of a fulfilling life, mindfulness practice (MBSR), moments of silence, and meaningful exchanges with other inspiring women—whether in nature or by a cozy fireplace.
START THE NEW YEAR WITH EASE AND FOCUS

We are experienced workshop facilitators and long-time coaches and trainers (certified psychologist, trainer in personal development and mental health, MBSR teacher, as well as a certified consultant and systemic coach in positive psychology)—and we’re passionate about what we do.
