Over dit evenement
Do you end your days feeling energized and inspired—or do you rely on weekends just to recover from a draining week? Are you able to stay relaxed, motivated, and in control of stress at work? The Restore Your Balance program helps you explore these questions and offers practical tools to bring more calm, clarity, and fulfillment into your daily life.
“When we are aware of the possibilities for developing inner freedom, we can begin to open to the pleasure, health and satisfaction that are all around us. Knowing ourselves better will prompt deeper insight, more understanding, and a sense of peace. We will grow healthy in body and mind; our work, family and relationships will become more meaningful.”
Skillful means part one
“When we face our problems directly and go through them, we discover new ways of being. We build strength and confidence to deal with future difficulties. Life becomes a meaningful challenge leading to greater knowledge and awakening. We discover that the more we learn, the more we grow; the more challenges we meet, the more strength and awareness we gain. When we live in accord with the process of change. We do something valuable simply by living.”

Restoring Balance – Giving and Receiving
This year-long program is a journey of discovering the positive qualities already within you and learning how to apply them in everything you do—adding value to your own life and to the lives of those around you. The program is grounded in the principles of Tibetan Buddhism yet fully accessible to everyone, regardless of background or belief.
What the program offers
The program consists of three midweek retreats, each supported by an individual coaching session (included when you book the full program). During each retreat, you integrate the teachings through practical exercises, Kum Nye Tibetan yoga, meditation, visualization practices, and hands-on activities. You may bring a work project – something you feel uncertain about or wish to improve—and explore it through the lens of balance and relaxed awareness.
There are also opportunities to join daily center tasks, such as cooking, gardening, or helping around the house. These are not chores, but ways to practice applying relaxed concentration in everyday actions. Ample time is provided for rest, walking, cycling, or simply enjoying the natural surroundings. Each day includes time for reflection to help you deepen your insights and track new discoveries.
At its core, Restore Your Balance is about deep relaxation, practical self-discovery, and learning to access fresh sources of inner knowledge.
The midweek retreats of this program have the following themes:
The balance between giving and receiving
The balance between thinking and feeling
The balance between doing and being
