In fall 2025 we offer another retreat in the Gulf of Mexico, near Veracruz.
We are presenting this retreat because we envision a world of peace. We dare to offer this in a situation where many individuals experience deep life crises, where the world is shattered by wars and exploitations, where the planet and all its nature suffers. We feel that these external conflicts reflect our inner worlds: “Which is Below corresponds to that which is Above, and that which is Above, corresponds to that which is Below", says an old hermetic law.
We have the vision that it heals the whole evolutionary process when we as individuals become aware of our inner combats, of our brokenness, of shame and fear, and when we accept them in a healing mode. This means to ignite the fire of peace and an understanding what this means. Peace cannot be found individually when I see myself separated from the world. It is the 'ego-for-myself'-force which causes the separation from close ones, from the world’s people and foreign cultures, from the earth and from heaven. To ignite the fire of peace means the understand that the 'ego-myself' is just a phantasy nourished by fears of being lost, broken, and unloved, and by the fear of madness and death. Healing means learning. Healing means extending the consciousness to the unknown. Where the 'ego-for-myself' creates fences and protection, the 'I am' feels part of all the others, part of the nature and the mystery of spirit. Fear transforms to compassion and love. Igniting the fire of peace is what the vedic culture understands as 'bodhi-chitta', 'sat-chit-ananda', the awakening of truth, wisdom, and happiness.
This process of individual and collective healing requires committed cooperation and a kind of psycho-spiritual synergy between individuals and the states all over the planet. Fortunately, there are many people all over the world, working individually or in smaller and bigger groups, contributing to this transformation. Ignorance can transform into respect, envy and greed into gratefulness, hate and fear into empathy and compassion. This process needs courage, trust and community.

Ingo B. Jahrsetz, Magda Solé and Jaume Mestres as the facilitators invite you to this transformative process in a more intimate format of a group.
For deep self-exploration we offer meditation, holotropic breathwork (Grof® Breathwork), ethnotherapeutic work, deep sharing and our long-year's therapeutic experience for assistance and integration. And we will be with you in silence. At the end of the retreat, we will plant a tree again (as we did it in previous retreats) to honor and sanctify the value of life on our planet.
The work of this retreat is especially close to our hearts. In the distance to the familiar often new gates open, individually, collectively, the sacred.
The place of the retreat, for most at a distance from their everyday life, invites us becoming mindful to our own 'inner ecological balance'. This is the steadiness between the head, the belly and the heart, the health of our body and our spiritual nature.
The Retreat Center is located in a lush tropical natural setting. It is a magical place, a hill on a lagoon. This is where heaven and earth, inner and outer nature meets.The people who live here are very committed to rebuilding and consolidating the natural balance. The retreat invites you to 'inner ecological balance'. There is no separation between 'inside' and 'outside'. When we embrace this ancient spiritual truth, we discover our home. We find peace within ourselves, in our close relationships and contribute to peace on our planet.
