Details of this retreat
This individual retreat offers a held and protected space to step out of everyday routines and return to a sense of presence within your body and inner experience. Away from schedules, expectations, and constant stimulation, time begins to slow, allowing you to gently leave autopilot behind.
Supported by the natural surroundings, there is space to settle, to ground, and to arrive fully in the present moment. External noise fades, perception becomes more refined, and your own natural rhythm is invited to re-emerge. Without a fixed program, the retreat unfolds according to your individual needs and at a pace that feels right for you.
At its core, this retreat is about reconnecting—with your body, your sensations, emotions, and inner impulses. It creates room to notice and release tension, to rediscover your needs, and to respond to them with clarity and care.
If desired, the retreat can be therapeutically supported. Emotional process work offers gentle guidance in exploring and integrating inner themes, while body-based therapies such as massage or osteopathic treatment support relaxation, grounding, and a deeper connection to the body. All sessions are tailored individually and guided with presence and respect for your personal process.
This retreat offers time for stillness, nature connection, and quiet reflection—a space to realign, restore your energy, and move forward with a deeper sense of balance and embodied clarity.

Schedule
A fixed program is not suitable for this retreat because the focus is on your individual needs, pace, and inner rhythm. Rather than following a rigid schedule, you are invited to move through the day in a way that feels natural and restorative for you. While there are points of reference, such as mealtimes, even these can be agreed upon flexibly, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the retreat experience without pressure.
