Retreat October 6th to 8th, 2026 in Zeitz — Yoga, Burnout Prevention, and Resilience

»And it requires a pause to remind oneself of that: a pause to do nothing, to simply listen, to remember on the deepest level what, when, and where we are.» ( Citation: Odell 2011, S. 50 Odell, J. (2011). Nichts Tun. Beck. )

Workshop Content

In my workshops, depending on the thematic orientation, elements from yoga and trauma-sensitive bodywork, systemic-biographical reflection, as well as creative writing and design are offered in an easily accessible way even for people with no prior experience.

Through extraordinary creative activities in a prepared, safe framework with enough time for slowness, individual rhythm, intensive perception, and simple enjoyment, creates an easier access to so-called flow experiences for more joy in experiencing the moment. ( See  Citation: Csikszentmihalyi 1999, S. 22ff. Csikszentmihalyi, M. (1999). Flow : Das Geheimnis Des Glücks (8. Aufl.). Klett-Cotta. ) Important elements are silence and mindfulness, to listen inward, to “clear your head,” and to create an expanded space for one’s own further development. In the workshops, the focus is on “play” instead of “work”—a mindful, deeply engaged activity without pressure for results, aimed at the immediate experience in the here and now.
