A journey to yourself
ŌHIA Silent Meditation Retreat
Are you ready to be taken into the depths of your inner world?
This 5-day retreat is an immersive experience taking you into the depths of your inner world and stillness.
Surrounded by nature and a stunning water landscape we will unplug from the daily swirl of life and fully immerse ourselves into stillness and silence.
We will pause. Relax. Learn, and venture deeper towards our most inner self. This retreat is all about self-care, self-reflection and establishing a wholesome and sustainable meditation practice that is right for you. It will help you to find deeper meaning, purpose, peace, and fulfillment in your life.
In three days in “noble silence” you will be allowed the uninterrupted space for insight & and a deeper understanding of yourself. We will explore essential meditation techniques that calm and train your mind and which will help you cultivate nourishing meditative qualities like kindness, compassion, equanimity and joy.
The retreat will take place in Rügen at Gut Üselitz, one of the island’s most beautiful and oldest hideaway homes which we will have all to ourselves.
Get ready for an unforgettable experience of true self-care. We can’t wait to meet you there!

How to get there
Travel to and from Gut Üselitz is not included in the retreat price. Gut Üselitz is approximately 3,5 hours by car from both Berlin and Hamburg, and a 30 min taxi ride from the nearest train station Stralsund.
The retreat location is quite remote so we recommend getting a rental car or to share a car with a fellow guest. We are happy to support you in connecting to other guests to organize shared transportation.
Booking
Please let us know your pricing option. We will then ask you to pay a 800€ deposit to secure your spot. The remaining cost will have to be paid 4 weeks prior to the retreat (until 14.04.2023).
