Silent Week Retreat – Yoga – Meditation – Satsang
About the retreat
This retreat is for the ones who yearn for a deeper dive into a longer silent retreat of 5 days with a mix of Yoga, Meditation, Satsang, Self-Inquiry, Spiritual Psychotherapy, Nature walks and Dance. To be in Silence for a while is a great gift and allows you to get in deep contact with your Self, with the group and with Nature.
We will stop speaking after the first dinner and until the last lunch. During this time you will be guided by Evelyne, an experienced Yoga & Meditation teacher and a Spiritual Psychotherapist, and taken on a journey home to the core of your Being, the essence within yourself. Sometimes clear insights and decisions can come from that place. And for sure it is the place of peace and unbound happiness.
The soft Vinyasa Yoga lessons in the morning will help you to come into your body, to stretch and open it, so that you get an easier access to your inner world. The morning meditations/silent sittings will help you to deal with your thoughts and get some distance to sticky thought patterns. The Nature walks in Silence will connect your inner Nature with the outer Nature and allow you to focus more on breathing, walking and the fascinating beauty and views surrounding Mandali.
The Self-Inquiry, Diads, Inner Journeys, Walking Meditations in the afternoon deepen the inner journey. The Satsang and Spiritual Psychotherapy sessions in the evening are a place where you can bring forth your questions about your journey, life challenges and we look into essential questions like „Who am I“.
For that format you may speak. Silence and Satsang are complementary when it is about to get deep recognition of your true Nature. The dance on one evening will allow you to loosen the body, the tensions, the thoughts and to celebrate life and the newborn realizations.
After this retreat you will somehow come out as a newborn, totally refreshed. And if you feed that new Being that you are, you may slowly start to align your life to it. You may stop making wrong compromises and listen to that silent voice within that tells you which way to go. In that way it is possible to stay in deep contact with existence, which will give you extra courage and confidence to take necessary steps and to live in deeper trust in life.
January is the Silent Month of Mandali – and we are most honored to stay there during a time where the whole center also goes into Silence.

Mandali was an incredible experience in a beautiful placE
I wish I’d spent more than 3 days there and truly hope to go back in the future. The rooms were very comfortable, the teachers were lovely, the food was delicious - I have absolutely no complaints and can’t say enough good things. Mandali was well worth the trip!

I learned that silence is very treasurable

You can let go of layers, and find such a peaceful side of yourself
“Your generosity, your kindness and your warm smiles are the cherries on the cake. Being here means living life to the fullest in every single moment. You can let go of layers, and find such a peaceful side of yourself. Go silent, sit still, let it move you and take that ride.”
