There are “intermediate times” between the individual formal parts, which belong to the retreat time as well as the formal parts. In general there are no “breaks” in this sense in a retreat. How could you have a 'break' from yourself? Every step, every movement, every sensual sensation and every movement of the mind belong to this time of withdrawal, self-awareness and observation.
During the individual parts of the retreat there are always important "intermediate times" in which you pursue your thoughts in a targeted and constructive way and write them down. Not just to hold them in place, but to clarify and deepen them, to really make them available and then possibly to be able to make new decisions.
WISDOM | here and now
is the title of our reatreat program. It always consists of the above 5 parts. The retreat itself is carried out by us in different formats:
