This intimate micro-retreat with Yoga Flame offers a chance to experience the depth and beauty of retreat life close to home. Designed as a gentle, accessible pause, it invites you to step into a nourishing space without long flights or complicated logistics — simply time to slow down, reset, and reconnect within reach of everyday life.

There is something quietly powerful about creating a sacred pause in familiar surroundings. Renewal does not always require escape; sometimes it begins exactly where we are. This experience blends warmth, transformation, and movement into a grounded yet expansive setting, offering space for rest, clarity, and embodied practice.

Participants will benefit from the restorative qualities of silence, presence, and mindful practices in a format that suits modern rhythms. It is also a chance to connect with like-minded neighbors who share an interest in yoga, breathwork, mindfulness, and personal growth.

Choosing a local retreat makes the experience both accessible and sustainable, with less travel and a lighter footprint. Returning to your own environment afterward also makes it easier to carry the insights and practices into daily life. This retreat is a gentle reminder that you do not need to leave your life behind in order to enrich it — transformation can unfold here and now.

ACCOMMODATION & FOOD

Located in the heart of the Swiss Alps, Hotel Balance offers more than accommodation; it is a sanctuary for connection, renewal, and transformation. As a family-run retreat rooted in sustainability and holistic living, it creates an ideal backdrop for this gathering.

Meals are an essential part of the experience, with every dish prepared as an expression of balance, care, and connection. The kitchen serves 100% organic vegetarian buffet-style meals, made with passion and precision from the finest local and seasonal ingredients.

Surrounded by breathtaking nature, nourished by organic cuisine, and held in an atmosphere of harmony, this setting supports inward reflection, intentional movement, and the shared energy of community.

YOGA, BREATHWORK & HIKING

WITH LEAD TEACHERS FROM OUR SWISS TEAM

Join Stefan & Vanessa in a space of renewal shaped by the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, where breath and movement are guided with care. Flow through yin and yang yoga, settle into yoga nidra, and explore breathwork practices that support the body’s natural harmony. The program also includes self-discovery and unconscious workshops, alongside gentle springtime hikes that bring you closer to nature’s rhythms.

This micro-retreat weaves together energy, presence, and inner growth, inviting you to realign, rejuvenate, and rediscover your balance from within.
