We’ve all been there...
A year full of experiences, highs, and challenges lies behind you—and yet there’s often no time to truly pause, look back, and consciously process it all. Instead of clarity, what remains is a feeling of “just keep going.”
The Mindful Advent Retreat is for people who want to take the time to mindfully reflect on their year and consciously bring it to a close. Three days—through yoga, breathwork, meditation, and sound healing—create a space where you can process your experiences, let go of what you no longer wish to carry with you, and gain new clarity for the path ahead. You’re invited to look back. Let go. And start your new year with clarity, focus, and inner peace.
Your Benefits:
- Consciously reflect on the past year and find inner closure
- Calm your nervous system and experience deep relaxation
- Release tension in your body and build up new energy through yoga and breathwork
- Reconnect with yourself through meditation and stillness
- Consciously set and anchor your intentions for the new year
- More inner peace, stability, and confidence in your own path
- Experience a weekend that will resonate within you for a long time to come and leave a lasting impact
Back to Your Vitality
Together with Malea Florine, yoga and meditation teacher, embodiment coach, and DJ, you’ll immerse yourself in a holistic practice that gently guides you away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and back to your inner peace. Through a combination of Yin Yoga, breathwork, meditation, and sound healing, a space is created where your body and mind slow down, tension dissolves, and your spirit finds peace. Nestled in an atmosphere of silence, candlelight, and mindful presence, you’re invited to reflect mindfully on the past year and bring it to a close within yourself.
This fosters deep, lasting regeneration—coupled with a sense of clarity, softness, and inner alignment that will accompany you into the new year with calm, centeredness, and a sense of being supported.
Our Program
Friday, November 29
8:30–9:00 p.m. Metta Meditation – Compassion & Loving-Kindness
Let’s kick off the weekend together with a powerful and heart-opening meditation. In this meditation, we’ll first cultivate loving-kindness and compassion for ourselves and then extend these qualities to our loved ones, family, and friends. Metta meditation is one of the oldest forms of Buddhist meditation. The goal of these meditation exercises is to cultivate a loving and benevolent attitude toward ourselves, our environment, and all sentient beings.

7:30–9:00 a.m. A dynamic yoga session that gets your circulation going and gives you energy for the day
In the dynamic Vinyasa Flow, we combine movement with breathing, thereby strengthening our inner balance. We bring the asanas—the physical postures—together in a creative, dynamic, and often powerful flow. The focus is on asanas that are mentally and physically challenging and that strengthen concentration. You’ll achieve inner peace, and through prolonged stretching and holding of the poses, deep-seated tension will release.
5:00 PM – 6:00 PM Yin Yoga & Breathwork
Sink into the long-held asanas and feel your body and mind come to complete rest. Yin Yoga helps release deep-seated tension and blockages in our tissue layers. Afterward, you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of breathing. Proper breathing can energize you, release blockages, and bring you greater serenity as you align with the here and now. Mindful breathing is easy to practice anytime, anywhere, and can help you find balance in any everyday situation. Let go. Immerse yourself. Allow. Feel. Experience
8:30–9:00 PM Breath Meditation & Sound Bath
Breath-awareness meditation is one of the simplest yet most effective meditation techniques. Proper breathing can energize you, release blockages, and bring you greater serenity as you stay in tune with the here and now. Mindful breathing is easy to practice anytime, anywhere, and can help you find balance in any everyday situation. This meditation is accompanied by the healing sounds of singing bowls.
Sunday, December 1
7:30 – 9:00 a.m. Hatha & Pranayama
In this yoga session, we’ll combine the qualities of Vinyasa and Hatha Yoga and strengthen our flexibility—both physical and mental—with gentle, flowing movements. This healing yoga session will help you recognize your inner strength and give you energy for the pre-Christmas season. The class concludes with a grounding pranayama session that strengthens your immune system and brings peace to your entire being.
Starting at 9:00 a.m.
Wind down the weekend and reflect on your experiences.
