Summary

You know what you want, yet you keep blocking yourself. There comes a point when understanding alone is no longer enough. When you realize: you have looked, reflected, recognized—and yet you are still stuck inside.

Roots and Change is a retreat for precisely this moment. Dana and I have been working in coaching and process development for many years. In our work, we have repeatedly observed that when people are stuck despite clarity, very early response patterns in the nervous system often come into play. These are patterns that developed before conscious decisions were possible and that still automatically control us today.

That's why we take two clear steps in this retreat. 1) First, we gently integrate early childhood reaction patterns: Through body-based work, your nervous system gets the opportunity to regulate, acknowledge, and reclassify old protective reactions. 2) In the second step, we broaden our view through cross-generational constellation work.
This reveals family and other systemic connections in which issues have been passed down and can be resolved where they originated. The process is accompanied by EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) for emotional regulation and movement impulses to release stored tension and emotions.
We set a calm, clear framework that combines understanding, feeling, and integration. Change is allowed to settle. At your own pace. With enough time for rest periods and walks in nature. If these lines have reached you, it is no coincidence. If you feel that now is the moment to go deeper, then take your time—and come to Roots and Change.

sequence

The retreat follows a clear, calm daily structure that provides guidance while leaving sufficient space for individual processes. Meals take place at fixed times and form the natural framework of the day: Breakfast: approx. 8:30–10:00 a.m. Lunch: approx. 12:30–2:00 p.m.
Rest period: approx. 2:00–3:00 p.m. Dinner: approx. 6:00–7:30 p.m. We carefully adjust the times to the retreat process. The day begins – on a voluntary basis – before breakfast with a silent meditation. It offers the opportunity to arrive calmly into the day and stay with yourself. Like all elements of the retreat, this invitation is voluntary. We use the time between meals for our shared processes, exercises, reflection, and getting to know each other. Guided sessions alternate with phases in which experiences can be reflected upon and integrated.

The evenings after dinner are deliberately kept open. They offer space for free exchange, being together, or quiet time for yourself, whatever feels right for you. The entire program is designed to allow for depth without overwhelming you, so that you can stay true to yourself at all times.
