Yoga Styles
Starting the day with an accessible yet energetic Vinyasa Flow session, ending the day with a soothing Yin Yoga practice (Myo Yin Yoga/Yin Yoga Nidra).
All yoga practices are taught from a functional approach, offering different options to empower each participant to unwind and to come home in the sacredness of their body, mind and breath. The flows are creatively built up progressively to add variety to your practice. They are designed to reset, to reconnect and to refresh your yoga practice.
Pranayama sessions and meditations make part of the daily schedule.
Cooking Workshops
Our cooking workshop is designed to inspire creativity and connection through healthy, colorful food.
- Dessert group: Together with my assistant, you will prepare raw cakes and cocoa delights for Sunday night’s dessert. This part of the workshop is all about fun, creativity, and connecting with each other while experimenting with plant‑based ingredients. Expect vibrant flavors made without processed sugars, using cacao, fruits, gluten‑free and non‑processed ingredients.
- Kitchen group (early evening): Later in the day, you will join chef Sandy in the kitchen to cook together and help prepare dishes for the evening dinner service. This is the perfect moment to ask questions, learn new techniques, and enjoy the fun of cooking side by side with a professional chef.
The workshops are divided into smaller groups, each working on a recipe. It’s a time to let creativity flow, share knowledge, and enjoy the joy of cooking together.
Please note: there is no alternative activity scheduled during the workshop. If you are not participating, take the opportunity to simply relax — enjoy the sauna, a swim in the lake, a little hike around the lake, or simply do nothing and give yourself extra time to just be.
Who is Who?
Sound Bath by Wild Flow Voyages Sonores
The musicians of wildflow.voyages.sonores are absolutely amazing! They take you on an inner journey and around the world using vibratory instruments like gongs, Tibetan bowls, crystal bowls, chimes, drums, voice....
It is suggested that there are many benefits to sound baths, such as calming the mind, relieving pain, tensions, and stress, helping you to totally relax and preparing you for better sleep. Each sound bath is unique and like “a concert for the soul”. This session on Saturday will help you to tap into your deepest restorative capacities of your body & mind.
Organic & Healthy Food
Vegetarian meals* are carefully prepared by our chef Sandy’s Kitchen. After an inspiring and energetic yoga class, a vegetarian buffet brunch will be served. The ingredients are fresh, natural, and organic, carefully chosen to add variety and color to your plate. Sandy creates delicious, original dishes that are easily digestible (gluten-free as much as possible) and healthy (no processed sugars).
Special attention is given to food intolerances and allergies, so that everyone can enjoy the meals safely. Expect an abundant array of nourishing delights!
A homemade healthy snack at 3pm will satisfy you until the next yoga session. In the evening, all taste buds will be pampered with a buffet-style dinner and dessert. Coffee, tea, herbal tea, water, fresh fruit, and nuts are available at all times.
Our retreats focus on the rebalancing of mind, body, and soul. In line with this wellness approach, this retreat is alcohol-free, encouraging you to expand your awareness and hit the reset button for your well-being.
