Ein Tag nur für dich. Achtsamkeits-Retreat mit Miriam Nehls

To pause, take a deep breath and get back on track.

Do you know the feeling that everyday life quickly becomes hectic again, even though your last vacation was only recently over? Then this time-out is just right for you! Experience an inspiring day of mindfulness and a gentle retreat to deepen your meditation practice, find peace and reconnect with yourself.

A day of stillness, sensing and conscious awareness.

Mindfulness trainer and gynecologist Miriam Nehls will guide you through a variety of meditations and mindful exercises inspired by the MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) practice according to Jon Kabat-Zinn. We will take time together to let go of stress, consciously experience the moment and discover new impulses for your everyday life. If you would like to get a taste of mindfulness-based stress reduction, this day is the ideal introduction.

What does your journey to inner peace look like?

• Arrive: We start the day with a short, theoretical introduction to the principles of mindfulness and stress management, which will prepare you for the upcoming meditations.
  
• Guided meditations and mindful exercises: You will be guided through various forms of meditation - from sitting and mountain meditation to walking meditation. They help you to find stillness and recharge your batteries. Metta meditation develops your self-compassion, and relaxation exercises such as the body scan lead you to a deep awareness of your body. Many other little treasures await you, which will enrich you and accompany you on your journey to inner peace.
  
• Yoga and bodywork: Mindful movement is part of the program. In the gentle yoga session, which is accessible to everyone, you will strengthen your body awareness and create space for relaxation.
  
• Community: Immerse yourself in a supportive community of mindfulness practitioners.
  
• Breaks for rest and reflection: Enough time to breathe deeply and a mindful lunch break where you can eat mindfully or take a walk.
  

Who is this retreat suitable for?

This mindfulness retreat is aimed at anyone who already has some experience of meditation and would like to deepen or refresh their practice. If you are already familiar with Jon Kabat-Zinn's methods, this day is the perfect place to further develop the techniques and gain new perspectives. Miriam is always on hand to offer advice and support - whether you have questions or minor difficulties.
