Who could I become? Who am I? Who was I?
Set within an ancient olive grove at Peli Kastri, this week-long retreat invites you to reconnect with your inner strength and begin a meaningful journey of self-discovery. Guided by two experienced psychotherapists, Anna Maurer and Michael Haid, you will explore how to recognize your talents and resources and use them to grow in a way that feels true to you.
This workshop, developed by Anna Maurer, focuses on self-realization and personal growth in relationship with others. It asks what gives life meaning, and which values help us orient ourselves so we can live our gifts responsibly and authentically.
The olive trees surrounding the retreat serve as a powerful symbol: like a tree, we are shaped by our roots, our past, and who we are today. By acknowledging our life experiences, we can uncover hidden gifts and resources. From that place of clarity, it becomes possible to take the next steps and shape an authentic life with courage.
Why join this retreat?
If we begin to see everything we have experienced and learned as meaningful, and if we trust the strength within us, we can discover potential that may still be waiting to emerge. This workshop helps identify where that power is not yet fully used, and what life may still hold for us when we choose to live courageously.
