Awareness Intensive Retreat - Satori
In this Satori retreat, you have the opportunity to explore and experience your true self directly. The powerful combination of methods from the Zen tradition and modern communication techniques takes you on a personal journey of self-discovery, supported by experienced facilitators and a caring team.
The focus is on the direct experience of your true nature and inner truth—free from old ideas, belief systems, or expectations.
The search for what defines you at your core is as old as humanity itself. Every person encounters this profound exploration, regardless of gender, age, intelligence, or background. Who am I? What is love? What is trust? What is…? For these and other so-called koans, we do not seek a solution or intellectual answer; instead, we dive deeply into them and aim to experience them directly.
As you open yourself to this process, you may discover greater relaxation, trust, and connection with yourself and others.
This path not only facilitates this intensive inner journey but also helps you integrate it into your daily life. At the same time, you will receive practical tools to carry this awareness forward in your life.
Established process for over 60 years, supporting human beings to raise their self awareness.
The experience and the benefits of knowing oneself and being in the moment are highly individual. This is what participants would commonly share after attending:
- A sense of inner peace and deep understanding about myself and life
- Greater trust in life
- Growing ease of just being myself
- More acceptance of myself
- Gaining more courage to live my life and my potential
- Being a better and more present listener
- Higher capacity to sense and feel myself and others
- Greater ability to give space to myself and others
- More clarity in speaking my truth
- Deeper relaxation and joy as I connect with myself
- A sense of inner integrity independent on how I feel or what others might say
This is for you, if...
... you crave for mental clarity, emotional balance, and a deeper connection with yourself.
... you feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from your purpose.
... you are ready to step away from the daily 'chaos' and take the time to reconnect with your essence.

... you want to go deeper in your self inquiry and self exploration.
Don't come, if...
