Summary

In the protected setting of the Benedictine monastery of Münsterschwarzach, this retreat invites you to pause, take a deep breath and reconnect with the child of happiness within you.

In this special place of silence, you can come to rest, reflect on where you stand and get to know yourself anew - in a friendly, compassionate and appreciative way.

The happy child strategy shows you ways in which you can transform negative thoughts into positive energy and strengthen your loving view of yourself.

Using methods from coaching & therapy and intuitive writing, you will explore your inner parts and give your intuition, your desires and your heart's goals space again and give yourself courage for the new beginnings and upheavals that lie ahead for you.

After the Glückskind Retreat, you will notice how you stand up for yourself more often in everyday life:
Stand up for yourself more often and set your boundaries clearly and lovingly
tackle heart projects that have been knocking on your door for a long time
Make relationships more authentic and truthful
Becoming more visible at work because you trust yourself and know your strengths
Make faster and clearer decisions and start implementing them
The retreat not only gives you relaxation, but also an inner awakening -
the courage to shape your life in harmony with your lucky child.
The sources of your strength are always available to you with the lucky child strategy.
And you will gain more and more clarity about the unique gift that you are to the world.

Together we create a space for our inner power and our inner light. Let yourself be carried by the power and energy of the group and strengthen your self-confidence. For the beginning of a wonderful friendship with yourself.
