Mindfulness-Retreat

Mindfulness means awareness. This can be understod as alertness and presence of the natural mind. Mindfulness allows us to be consciously positive, to maintain supportive mental states. If it is not present, negative or harmful mental states can develop. In Buddhism, mindfulness is thus seen as a factor of maturity; this we practice together with other maturity factors such as joy, energy, peace, concentration and serenity in order to experience the happiness that results.

The retreat will be held from 24 to 28 September 2023 and from 19 to 23 November 2023. Programmes are subject to change.

The retreat is held in German only. Programmes and instructors are subject to change.

If the desired room category or places are not available, please call us (+41 33 748 04 34). We will be happy to work out a personal solution for you. We look forward to hearing from you!

Matthias Brun, yoga and meditation teacher and trainer, Head of the Aware Yoga Studio and Yoga Academy Thun

I love to experience the joy of simple moments and to view the personal dramas of life with an alert, caring spirit. Because every moment contains countless possibilities for happiness, acknowledgement and joie de vivre. We practice mindfulness with the body in a very simple way: with gentle yoga, fascia and energy exercises, with our pleasant, unpleasant and neutral feelings, with our moods or mental states, but also with our wondrous ideas and personalities. These all provide ample basis for moments of clarity and serenity, if we let them. Accompany us on this voyage of discovery.
