Winter Solstice Retreat

Solstice means "to stand still". In the days before Christmas, Mischa and Tijs make time for yourself. Time to connect with the stillness within yourself and reconnect with your embodiment. Just as the Earth itself pauses to take a new direction, you can stop and think about your life and focus on your direction for the new year.

Together with a maximum of 5 men per day, we celebrate the return of light and longer days of sunshine. We do this with exercise, yin yoga, healthy (vegan) food and - of course - our great massages. Meditative moments and the surrounding nature give you the space and time to calm your mind and soul.

You can choose to spend time with us for one, two, three or even four days if you wish. Every day we offer a day start with moving meditation, a shared lunch, a yoga session and sharing in the late afternoon and the possibility to receive massages during the day. Choose from a nice mix of treatments in combination with rest and exercise. This can be adjusted to your individual needs and goals. Accommodation and dinner are also optional. You have enough time for yourself to walk, cycle, jump in the sauna or in the lake and do some sightseeing or canoeing. And if you are in the mood, you can make contact with the other participating men.

This retreat is provided by Mischa van Dullemen and Tijs Breuer. Mischa's yoga is down to earth, energetic and accessible to both beginners and more experienced participants. His traditional Thai massages will stretch your body in great positions. Tijs' meditations are perceptive and embodied, with movement. His massages are deep, intimate and sensual.
