Over the 6 years we have been running dark retreats for you, we have found out that you don’t come to us just for the dark retreat 🙂
We notice that you often arrive differently from how you would travel anywhere else. Quite a few of you walk here from the train, even though at home you drive even “to the loo” 🙂
It’s remarkable how you manage to calm yourselves down when you’re normally always wound up tight, or, on the other hand, to speed up when normally nothing much can shake you out of lethargy or burnout.
Before and after the dark retreat you can spend time in the garden
It doesn’t matter whether you came by car, on foot or were driven here by friends. You decide when to switch off the light, so you can stay in our garden for as long as you want or need.
Just yesterday we put out 5 more benches, so you can watch the red fish in the pond huddling in the mud among the reeds, or listen to the birds or to the all-embracing calm.
You can, and you don’t have to – that is the freedom we have been given, and so you have the choice <3
P.S. Who can find the dark retreat cabin in our jungle? 🙂

“Just one night? That doesn't really count, does it?” We hear this quite often — usually from people who have been thinking about the dark for months and are still waiting until they can take a whole week off.
