Summary

Three Days Just for You—Retreat, Peace, and Authentic Connection

Amid the quiet, sheltered atmosphere of a monastery, we invite women to a special retreat: three days of settling in, letting go, and recharging. Far from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, a space is created where gentleness, community, and self-care take center stage.

This retreat combines yoga, qigong, and meditation into a soothing journey back to yourself. Gentle movements, mindful breathing, and moments of stillness help you relax your body and mind, find inner peace, and draw new strength. It’s not about performance or perfection, but about mindfulness, presence, and lovingly sensing what is happening right now.

In addition to shared practice sessions, there is also space for connection and exchange. A sense of connection emerges within this small community of women—nurtured by openness, appreciation, and mutual listening. Shared meals, conversations, moments of silence, and simply being together create an atmosphere of security and trust.

The monastery’s unique setting naturally supports this retreat: quiet paths, airy spaces, and the unhurried atmosphere invite you to reconnect with yourself. Here, you can take a deep breath, find peace, and remember how healing slowness can be.

This weekend is an invitation to put yourself back at the center—with everything that moves you.
A time of regeneration, inner balance, and gentle reconnection with yourself and other women.

Suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners alike. No prior experience is required—just a willingness to give yourself time and attention.

Arrival

Travel to the monastery is at your own risk. The easiest way to reach the Nikolauskloster is via Highway 46, exiting at the Grevenbroich-Kapellen interchange. Then turn right onto the L 361 and follow it for about 2 km until you see signs for the Nikolauskloster. Turn left there onto the L 32, and the monastery will be on your left after about 1 km. Parking is available right on the street.

The monastery time-out was balm for my soul. I was able to relax wonderfully. The course instructor was very sympathetic and alternated the courses. The husband of the course leader accompanied Qi Gong musically with the handpan. It was a perfect fit without being intrusive. The group consisted of few participants and harmonized wonderfully. The rooms were simple but functional. I must especially praise the volunteer monastery staff, who provided us with rich home cooking in the form of a three-course menu and evening buffet. spoiled. All in all, I was very satisfied and relaxed when I went home. Many thanks to Kerstin and Oliver for this wonderful time. In winter I will participate in another monastery retreat.

It was a very successful time out. In the monastic setting, the trainer conveyed the content very well. The music was well suited. The food was of restaurant quality. Thank you for the great experience.
