Do you feel stressed, drained, exhausted? Are you facing an important decision? Do you need a retreat and finally some time for yourself again !? This break week offers you the ideal setting to find clarity, strength and focus again. For what is really important to you in life.

Mindfulness training has established itself in the western world as a way of being more present, calm and concentrated and less stress. The contents conveyed in this week are based on thousands of years old yogic, Buddhist Ayurvedic and the latest neuroscientific and psychological findings. The goal is to transfer a mindful attitude to private and professional everyday life and thus to be able to deal with stress and burdensome thoughts and feelings in a more relaxed manner. Learn how to deal with high levels of stress (work, family, relationships), get out of negative thought spirals, find deceleration, be friendlier to yourself and gain more inner balance and joie de vivre.

The workshop offers a practical introduction to mindfulness with various body, concentration and breathing exercises as well as mindfulness meditation with theoretical and philosophical aspects.
