Yoga and time for yourself at Vinnenberg Monastery

Do you long for silence and inner peace? For a break from the hectic pace of everyday life? Then this monastery time-out is perfect for you. I invite you to perceive your body in its entirety again with gentle yoga exercises, to feel yourself again and to open your heart. The 5-element yoga exercises will also help you to do this, leading you inwards into a meditative calm in a light and dance-like way and allowing your mind to come to rest.
Yoga in nature and especially Yin Yoga, combined with a practice that brings you to your center, offers a profound opportunity to experience relaxation and mindfulness.
During a silent walk, you will experience a deeper recognition of your own being and essence. Merge with nature intensively and without being distracted. Experience the soothing relaxation and coming home to yourself on this weekend with gentle Hatha Yoga sequences, deeply relaxing Yin Yoga, guided meditations and poetry.

Kloster Vinnenberg is located in Warendorf in Münsterland and is no more than 1.5 hours away from many cities in the Ruhr area. It is about 2 hours by car from Düsseldorf and Cologne. The convent is run by nuns and is very lovingly furnished. Weather permitting, we can practise yoga in the monastery garden. It is usually very warm there in May and we can do the mindfulness exercises in the fresh air.
