Certified Training as Mediator
120hrs (ZMediatAusbV) with Brigitte Gans

This course offers the unique opportunity to fulfill three of your heart’s desires at once: To learn the “mouth of the mediator” with certification that meets the requirements of being a “certified mediator” under federal law.

The course teaches how to support others step by step to come out of a conflict dynamic into a clarification and solution dynamic. This can be used privately or at work – or offered professionally as a service. The intensive daily training in a small group and the daily meditation practice promotes one’s own growth and the integration of the new skills.

Hawaian Touch -pleasure and deepening week “The secret of life lies in the moisture of the breath”
with Marion Kalteis
Hawaiian Touch is not just a physical massage art, but a spiritual art to accompany people holistically. Our hands are the extension of the heart. When we touch one person, we touch an entire universe. Through conscious breathing we increase our frequency, it is the basis for any form of energetic work.
We experience ourselves in depth and transform our habitual patterns, lovingly let go of the old and allow new things to enter our lives.
– Yoga, meditation and mindfulness practice – Flying as a spiritual form of movement for flow – Massage art Lomi Lomi Nui 2 – 3 sessions daily – Activities or silence in the community – Sunsets and wonderful food on the finca. – celebrate life together.
We do not teach any specific Lomi style. Our common focus rests on the essence of the inner teachings, the harmonization of body, mind and soul as well as one’s own orientation.
“When the breath, the Qi, the life force, the ever living force is found, then there is no need to discuss methods anymore. The methods only serve to lead us to find the qi that is neither inside nor outside but permeates all of life.” (Reshad Field)
Advanced and beginners welcome. Course language is German.

Kate will offer a mid morning class each day to gently open the body and attune the mind to the breath.The class will slowly move and build into a flowing and dynamic sequence, incorporating the cultivation of awareness, physical alignment, breath and the chakras (energy centres). As this is a two hour class, there will be time to practice variations, develop stamina, restore and revitalise. This class will be followed by lunch and time to relax.
The late afternoon sessions with Kate will further explore both the chakra and the elemental systems, through the practices of yin yoga, freeing movement, sound healing, mantra, meditation and more.

Advanced Training Lomi Lomi
with Suramya Margareta Kappl
This training is for all Lomi-Lovers, who really want to know it : it is about refining the bodywork and learning new possibilities of the bodywork to adress the body, soul and spirit. With „Lomi Oluli“ and „Lomi Oluea“ in the lineage of Kahu Abraham from Kawai’i we dive deeper in the hawaiian bodywork. We learn how to relieve the body of burdons and how to ignite the fire.
The more we understand the Kahuna principles and the more we implement them in the bodywork, the the doing disappears and the massage just happens by itself. The one who is giving the massage, the one who is recieeving the massage and that which is given become just one – a new dimension of bodywork is happening.
Arriving Day 02.09. or 03.09.2024, Departure at the 11.09. 2024

Making Love Retreat
mit Jasmin und Max Muzio
During this weeklong retreat, created by Diana & Michael Richardson, a couple is given completely new insights into sex and its function within a relationship. Most of the unhappiness experienced in love has its source in the dissatisfaction with sex.
When the underlying truth of sex is clarified, sex can become a healing force instead of a disruptive one.
The key lies in a new perception of the genitals: how they interact and how male and female energy communicate with each other.
Also participants are given tools for communication and regulation, so they can gain an inner sense of safety and empowerment.
Through this understanding of making love and in adding our background of Somatic Experiencing (trauma therapy by Peter Levine), a very safe and grounded space is created where true healing and transformation can emerge naturally.
Max & Jasmin have been together for over 10 years and are parents of three children.
The Making Love approach has accompanied them since the beginning of their relationship and has shown how to make love the very priority in life. Today, they share their knowledge in retreats and in individual consultations with people from all over the world who want to rediscover loving sexuality.
