Retreats


From yoga to mindfulness to expression

Our retreats range from quiet weekends to intensive weeks.
They create space for movement, silence, and personal development.

Throughout the year, experienced teachers lead retreats and workshops at Casa Santo Stefano.
Sometimes gentle and calm, sometimes powerful and focused. Always embedded in the rhythm of the house and nature.
During your retreat, Casa Santo Stefano will become your temporary home. A place for retreat, encounter, and new clarity. Time that does you good and has a lasting effect.

    Your retreat into silence: fasting, meditation & hiking in Ticino

    • With Noa Zenger, medically certified fasting instructor dfa, meditation teacher, spiritual coaching and Nadine Valet, fasting instructor (dfa) | idea generator, founder of Zero & You and projekttraum Hamburg

    Details

    Fasting and silence have a special power. They release what is not essential and open the space for what wants to be heard within you - like a soft whisper that echoes in the mountains of everyday life. In this silence, the essential may become visible: a deep connection that makes your being vibrate and leads you back to your innermost being. This retreat is a reconnection - an arrival at yourself, a deep inhalation of your own essence. The retreat begins with a quiet arrival from 4 pm, a welcome round, a light plant-based meal and the first meditation session.

    The following days follow a quiet, harmonious rhythm:
    - In the morning you start with a walk in nature followed by a meditation.
    - Afterwards we enjoy our morning tea in a group discussion.
    - A guided hike and QiGong give you movement and inner space.

    In the afternoon, there is space for rest and contemplation. The day ends with a delicious vegetable broth, an inspiring impulse and a quiet evening meditation. A retreat to let go, to listen and to find yourself.

    • In Italian and French
    • There are still places available
    Details

    In this retreat, we will focus on the questions that death raises and our attitude towards it - in life, in our own dying process and in the transition phases afterwards. This attitude shapes our next incarnation and influences how we come to peace with ourselves and with others.

    We deal with grief and letting go, with reconciliation, forgiveness and compassion. We explore fears in life and before dying, as well as the topic of attachment and the ability to develop trust and surrender. The various stages of dying and the process of rebirth are also considered. The aim is to find clarity and inner peace with one's own life and to obtain tools to be able to accompany people at the end of life and mourners with care.
