Practice the second level of long meditations
At this retreat, you practice the second level of long meditations: 3-4 hours. Deeper layers of stress and tensions loosen up. You feel renewed from within.
Daily meditation guidance
You attend guidance groups of 4-6 people, led by experienced instructors. This is a place to share experiences from your meditation. Your own reflection and the dialogue help you meditate better, and give you personal insights
Evening seminars to support your meditative journey
Evening talks address relevant topics, such as meta-thoughts and self-images, the free mental attitude, personal growth and existential topics.
Yoga
You can join yoga sessions in the morning, giving you a good starting point for the long meditations. Acem Yoga includes a sequence of breathing exercises and stretches, done in a calm and introspective way, leveraging the free mental attitude.
