Summary

May 16–17, 2026
A gift for you: intensity, emotions, joy of life, colors, recharging, and time for enjoyment in a supportive atmosphere. Your colorful weekend retreat in May will take place from 10 a.m. on Saturday to 3 p.m. on Sunday at Frei*RAUM in Radebeul near Dresden. You’ll learn to express yourself and to shape your life as colorfully as a painting. I’ll lead all seminar sessions with various mindfulness exercises and will also guide you through the painting process.

Optionally, the weekend can begin with the Friday course at the Meissen monastery ruins: Discovering Creativity in Silence on May 15. It can be booked for day guests coming from the surrounding area as well as with overnight stays.
The seminar fee for the weekend is 130 euros; the Friday course at the Meissen monastery ruins costs an optional extra 35 euros.
Overnight accommodations in the area are available starting at 60 euros per person. On Saturday, lunch and coffee will be served at Frei*RAUM; on Sunday, we’ll head to a restaurant to wrap up the weekend (optional—everyone pays for themselves). The weekend is perfect as a (Mother’s Day) gift or a girls’ getaway.

Feel free to check out my other offerings—for example, a retreat on the Baltic Sea at the Roggow Manor in May.

On Saturday, we’ll have lunch and coffee at Frei*RAUM. Snacks and drinks are included.
On Sunday, to wrap up the weekend, I’d love to take everyone out to a restaurant. Anyone who wants to come along will pay for themselves. Alternatively, after the closing session on Sunday around 1:00 p.m., we’ll head back to our daily routines.
