Spätsommergefühle Retreat

September 14th - September 21st, 2025 • Allgäu, Germany

Group of five friends sitting on grass under a tree, holding hands, with a countryside view in the background.

Step away from the rush of daily life and into a week of deep connection—with yourself, with others, and with nature.

Surrounded by forest, mountains, and the peace of stillness, this retreat curated by the team from Ojalá invites you to slow down, listen, and simply be. Greet the day with silence and birdsong, move your body through joyful yoga, savor nourishing meals under the open sky, and rest in the shade of beech trees.

Together, we'll sing, breathe, create, and gather around the fire as deer emerge from the woods. Come home to your heart—held by community and the wild.

Retreat language: German

“If you are seeking, seek us with joy

For we live in the kingdom of joy.

Do not give your heart to anything else

But to the love of those who are clear joy,

Do not stray into the neighborhood of despair.

For there are hopes: they are real, they exist –

Do not go in the direction of darkness –

I tell you: suns exist.”

― Rumi

The precious gift of a whole week surrounded by nature and far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. An abundance of peace, love and nature around you. The invitation to immerse deeply and reconnect. Perceive with all your senses and nourish and open your heart. Observe in silence and simply Be.

It's a blessing and an honor to create spaces in which we can meet so openly and lovingly beyond learned mechanisms. We do not see ourselves primarily as teachers, but rather share with love and passion the experiences of our own journey and various spiritual teachings that accompany and inspire us.

We share a common vision and celebrate the diversity with which we can approach it - be it in asana practice, bhakti yoga, meditation, breathwork, sound, vegan cuisine, in joint workshops and in shared experiences.

What to expect

A person’s legs are up in the air while they are in a pond, creating splash and ripples, with a house and trees in the background.

What a typical day looks like

We spend each morning in silence - also known as Noble Silence. We will also have a full day of silence mid-retreat as an invitation to really slow down, be present, go deep and become aware of the ever present beauty of life. We practice a meditation of the spiritual heart and share tips and tricks for inviting and enjoying the silence. Fenja and Luisa lead Tantric Hatha Yoga. This is a quieter practice in which we hold the asanas for longer to fully immerse ourselves in the moment and our perception. 

When the aroma of freshly brewed tea, coffee and homemade tahini granola fills the house, it's time for a hearty breakfast and a long break - for a nap, a walk in nature, a good book, a conversation or simply a view out the window.

The afternoon workshops are as diverse as life itself—for example, on the philosophy of yoga or shared reflection. There will be individual integration opportunities in the form of discussions, singing bowl massages, and bodywork. In the evening, there will be a sound bath, conscious breathwork, and a kirtan, among other activities. And, of course, plenty of space, time, and room to simply be together and enjoy each other.

We invite you to be curious and at the same time to shape the retreat at your own pace.

Morning

Afternoon

Evening

A slow morning with meditation, yoga, time in silence and a hearty breakfast.

Time for you to relax, explore, and go deeper. Enjoy a dynamic program of inspiring workshops, integration sessions, and a variety of yoga classes. Nourish yourself with fresh fruit and delicious snacks throughout the day.

Gather for a lovingly prepared dinner, then ease into the night with a changing program—perhaps a soothing sound bath, a deep breathwork journey, or the shared joy of Kirtan. Each evening invites a new way to connect and unwind.

ROSSO - Der Hof der Möglichkeiten

A beautiful red farmhouse in the middle of the Allgäu. Old wood, high ceilings, lots of light. A huge garden full of fruit trees and nothing but green hills, forest and space all around. Furnished with a lot of heart and attention to detail.

Soak up the first rays of sunshine of the day with Mediterranean flair on the terrace or sun deck and look out over the Alps. In the evening, sit by the fireplace in the studio of the long while. First enjoy the sauna and then cool off in the swimming pond. Do yoga, meditate and simply be in the light-flooded studio. In the evening, sit together at the large table, look out over the valley and enjoy pizza from Philipp and Tjorven's wood-fired oven.
