Recordings
The retreat time is a protected time, and everything that is shared there remains between us. Every Satsang of the retreat is recorded in audio and video. However, the audio and video recordings from the retreat will not be published, but will be made available shortly after the end of the retreat in a protected area of my website for you and the other participants only, so that you can watch and relive all the Satsangs of the retreat as often as you like.
Access to the retreat recordings is included in the retreat price.
English Retreats
Currently, all of my retreats are German-language events, and there are no English retreats scheduled as of now. However, I am more than happy to schedule English retreats as soon as there is enough demand for it ❤️. Please write to retreat@dhyanmikael.com to express your interest, and I will keep you posted.
Allgäu Seminar House
The Allgäu seminar house is located in Uttenhofen near Isny, Wangen and Leutkirch at 600 meters above sea level between the two rivers Obere and Untere Arge with countless rolling hills. (Google Maps)
The former stylishly renovated mill offers a large dining room on the ground floor with a cozy tiled stove and sunny terrace by the pond, a beautiful large seminar room and atmospheric, bright and hospitable rooms. The lovingly furnished house is surrounded by a large property with a stream, where countless idyllic places invite you to linger.
The cordial hostess Mrs. Franke and her team spoil their guests with organic and vegetarian full board. Beautiful hiking trails are waiting to be discovered right on the doorstep, and there is a large swimming lake just a few kilometers away.
I am very much looking forward to the retreat in this idyllic seminar house close to nature. The location in southwest Germany near the border with Austria and Switzerland is ideal for many of my friends. The accommodation is cozy but simple with shared bathrooms, but at moderate prices.
I am wholeheartedly looking forward to "real" live encounters with you and everyone else who wants to come.

Meditation during the Retreat
I talk about Samarpan Meditation in one way or another in almost every Satsang and video. If you already know it, you will have the opportunity to meditate together in the group every evening during the retreat, in addition to your morning meditation.
As a newcomer, you can get to know this wonderful meditation during the retreat and try it out if you like. On Monday evening, there will be the opportunity to take part in a German online introduction to Samarpan meditation, which will be conducted by Samarpan Meditation Germany. You can also take part in this online introduction prior to the retreat on any Monday evening from 18:45 - 19:30. It is free of charge and great fun.
For English speaking participants, we will play an English introduction video on Monday evening, and I will answer questions afterwards.
Samarpan Meditation was brought to society by Satguru Shivkrupanand Swamiji from the Himalayas and is therefore also called Himalayan Samarpan Meditation. It has nothing to do with me personally – I am simply a meditator, just like you, and I share my experiences and insights from meditation.
Yoga during the Retreat
Yoga is a wonderful complement and preparation for meditation, because in yoga, you practise on a physical level what meditation is about on a spiritual level: relaxing into what is.
We are lucky to have Simone Maria, a sensitive yoga teacher, at the retreat, and if you like, you can start the day with yoga under her guidance. You can decide spontaneously each morning whether you feel like yoga or not. Yoga sessions are paid separately with Simone Maria.
Swamiji recommends starting each day with physical exercises after meditation. Here is your opportunity!

In Retreat with Dhyan Mikael
Retreat is an opportunity for you to go on a journey of discovery towards the inside – an "inside" that has nothing to do with your body and feelings, thoughts and desires. The more silent and desireless you become inside, the more you become acquainted with what Swamiji calls the soul.
I have been traveling with my spiritual master Soham for over 20 years, and since 2017 I have been a disciple of the Indian Satguru Shivkrupanand Swamiji, who brings Samarpan Meditation from the Himalayas to society. He says: "I make your Soul your Guru." Through him and through meditation, I experience this in my own life.
When we sit together in Satsang during the retreat, you yourself get a taste of this unknown "inside" of you. It is like remembering something that you have known for a long time and have merely forgotten. And the more this grows, the more your life changes for the better, miraculously, as if by itself.
I invite you to set out on the path to discover your true self, and thus, Heaven. If I can do it, then you can too...
