Every day is different and every group of participants too. But we have a regular time schedule for meals and for activities together:
We start at 7 am with exercises to wake up our body and spirit. Duration about 45 minutes. We are focused on generating more energy by taking a deeper breath, and on improving health through movement. This often involves some type of Yoga, but not always, and we are open to your input for the morning activities.
This is followed by breakfast from 8 until 9 am. You can compile your own favorite breakfast dish from the many ingredients that we offer, from oats, muesli, yogurt, fruit, seeds and nuts, to ingredients for egg dishes and sandwiches. You can also make porridge or smoothies and fresh orange juice, tea, coffee. We have farmers eggs and most of our vegetables are from our own garden or a local farmers market.
Around 8:30 am we have a quick meeting for planning our activities in the garden.
From 9 am in the morning we focus on daily tasks like gardening and lunch preparation. We do this in a silent, meditative way, relaxing and being total in these activities. We suggest to switch your smart phone off and only talk if you have something immediate to share, saving your social chats for later in the day. We use this time to practice working as a meditation, please read a short explanation of this principle here.
By participating you learn about various aspects of health food, how to prepare it and also how to grow your own vegetables. There is time to learn about traditional preservation methods, like fermenting vegetables, making condiments and preserves (without sugar), oat milk and nut milk, juices and smoothies and also how easily you can sprout seeds. We believe that food can be the best medicine and we share information from many sources about this and about alternative and traditional medicine.
Lunch between 1 and 2 pm is the main meal of the day. It offers a variety of fresh salads for raw food lovers, and also hot dishes, with vegetarian and vegan options. All kinds of diets can be accommodated, although for some specialized requirements you may have to provide ingredients yourself.
After lunch and a pause for cleaning up and siesta we have many options, depending on the weather and personal preferences. We can go to the beach and swim in the Atlantic ocean, go hiking through nature, running, or relaxing, like reading a book by the side of the pool. When the weather is colder we often heat up the Sauna.
7 pm: The evening meditation is a time to relax and turn in. We introduce you to Osho active meditations, guided relaxation techniques, mantra singing and more. You can also present methods that you learned and would like to share.
You can choose to have soup and snacks before or after the meditation. Or skip the last meal if you want to practice intermittent fasting.
In weekends the schedule is more flexible. On Saturday and Sunday there is no guided yoga or meditation.
