Vipassana - the form of meditation attributed to the Buddha - opens up a path to direct insight into reality. Without concepts, evaluations or theoretical explanations, the focus is entirely on the pure perception of inner processes. It is not about avoiding, analyzing or interpreting anything, but about observing what is in silent attentiveness. This practice requires nothing more than openness, patience and the courage to be honest - regardless of previous experience or spiritual beliefs.
In this retreat, you will combine silent meditation with mindful movement: Walking meditation, Qi Gong, yoga and deep relaxation support inner collection and promote conscious experience in the present moment. Vipassana can thus be experienced not only while sitting, but in your entire being - while walking, breathing and sensing. The period of silence until the last day of the seminar at 8 a.m. creates a protected space, free from distractions, conversations or external stimuli, in which mindfulness can fully unfold. Embedded in the spiritual atmosphere of Yoga Vidya, you will be part of a powerful framework with daily rituals such as morning and evening mantra chanting.
Two formats invite you to deepen your knowledge:
🕉️ The Mindfulness Vipassana Retreat (13.-15.02.2026) offers you an intensive weekend of silent contemplation and mindful practice - suitable for anyone who wants to engage in a deeper inner experience.
🕉️ Yoga meets Vipassana (08.-10.05.2026) offers additional gentle Hatha yoga classes, breathing exercises and mindful guided meditations. The aim is to experience a clear, calm state of mind that gives you relaxation and new strength.
These days are an invitation to experience the connection between body, breath and consciousness in a new way - still, clear and centered. You will learn techniques that you can use effectively not only on the mat, but also in everyday life. Mindfulness becomes an inner attitude - for more serenity, compassion and inner freedom.
