Retreats
A digital break means more than just turning off your smartphone. While mere abstinence often triggers stress, a designed withdrawal enables deep and sustainable regeneration.
Our retreats offer you this protected space: a combination of professional support, movement in nature as well as yoga, Pilates and meditation offerings. You determine your daily program yourself – use exactly the impulses you need at the moment and that do you good.
So that your recovery doesn't evaporate on the first day back at work, we support you with the transfer into your everyday life:
-
Preparation: After your booking we accompany you by email to mentally prepare you for your break.
-
Individual deepening: For an even more intensive effect we recommend supplementary individual coaching for preparation or for the sustainable return to your everyday life. The coaching is optionally bookable and helps you to change your personal digital habits in the long term.
Look around and find the right format for your next conscious break here.
4 days away from screens, in the heart of the Swiss Alps. Time to breathe, move, exchange and simply be. A balanced mix of nature, physical activity and mental stimulation – without mandatory program, performance or group pressure. You are free in your design and at the same time never left on your own.

Framework & Key Ideas
- Digital withdrawal is self-responsible: smartphones are not used in front of other participants.
- Optional: Devices can be handed in at reception at the beginning and picked up again at the end.
- E-book readers are allowed.
- Participation in all program items is voluntary.
- Even though the offering is diverse, there are consciously unstructured times; boredom is allowed and part of the process.
- The goal is not "never use devices again", but a more conscious relationship after the retreat.
- Participants receive preparation information before the retreat (how to prepare, what to bring, so as not to depend on the smartphone).
- The retreat leaders always carry a phone for emergencies during hikes/jogging/excursions; it is kept out of sight and only used when needed.
