Summary

A loving little break just for you This yoga weekend is a wonderful break and journey to yourself and for your self-care. Say goodbye to your stressful everyday life—leave everything behind and find peace of mind in this wonderfully peaceful place. Here, you can feel your inner self—perceive, observe, and simply be. The perfect relaxation for body, mind, and soul. This weekend is suitable for yoga beginners as well as those who have been practicing for a long time and yoga teachers who want to expand and deepen their practice and experience. In this beautiful, picturesque place, you can unwind and allow yourself more leisure and time.

You will experience intense and relaxed Hatha yoga classes with variations and Yin Yoga. Meditation, breathing exercises, affirmations, body scans, Feldenkrais, sound journeys, deep relaxation, and massage complement the practice.

This seminar has been reviewed and certified by health insurance companies and is subsidized by most statutory health insurance providers with €75-150! Accommodation and meals are billed separately on site and are not subsidized. You can find more information on my homepage. We are located in the former Benedictine convent Malgarten (1194-1803) in the Osnabrück region.
The approximately 4-hectare, creatively designed outdoor area, with lovingly restored half-timbered houses, old trees, and secluded paths and squares, invites you to take a stroll and linger. In addition to keeping chickens and bees, fruit and vegetables are also grown.

To further strengthen your immune system, you can use the outdoor sauna and swim in the adjacent pond. The seminar and conference chef provides us with exceptionally delicious vegetarian/vegan organic regional health food. I look forward to your registration!

Malgarten Monastery is the perfect place for a break. Beautiful nature, simply a special place. The yoga classes with Christine were varied - she is a great, empathetic and authentic yoga teacher who really managed to help me relax deeply during the classes. Thank you for the wonderful time!
