Wege zum Sein

Thanks to Stefan, who provided a great service during the preparation. It couldn't have been more friendly 😊 and thanks to Martin for organizing the silent retreat. It was perfect all round

Bettenburg Castle, its surroundings and its inhabitants, who took care of our physical well-being, and above all the trainer Martin, provided a great setting for us to be so intensively with ourselves. It was a very valuable experience and helped me on my way. Thank you very much!

The course of the whole seminar was very relaxed. The program was fixed and therefore easy to plan and yet Martin's intuition gave the impression of a great deal of flexibility, so that everything fitted together perfectly.
The castle, the surroundings and the animals there were simply beautiful. I really enjoyed it and would love to come back.

I had to postpone my seminar period once, which went without a hitch, thank you for that. Organizationally, I had no reason to complain. The room was OK, the food was good and the castle was very suitable. The only thing missing was a sports room where you could have worked with sling trainers, for example. But you can do without it sometimes, so I didn't want for anything.
I also underestimated the personal rucksack of the other participants and was very glad that the seminar leader (Martin Garreis) has professional experience of people's psyche. When severely depressed participants needed help, it was there. That's a good thing, it can even be dangerous to lead something like this without knowledge.
Silence was never a problem for me, but the very loud, sad, almost depressive mood of the participants was difficult. Martin did a great and very professional job, without too much of an esoteric, alternative undertone, which would have put me off. His autogenic training and the singing bowl meditation session were incredibly good!
I would book the seminar again, but for the second time I would completely forego the reading/conscious engagement and perhaps start meditating after all. I didn't want to/wasn't able to learn this, but only philosophized very intensively about my own questions in the phases offered. I will not use the online seminar offered by Wege-zum-Sein.

Trainer Martin was a wonderful guide through the week with his calm, presence and expertise. Everything, really everything (venue Schloss Bettenburg, speaker Martin, content and methodology, time for myself) was a complete success.

Florian and also the hotel were very very good

Again and again with pleasure.
Very nice that there are offers via Zoom :)

Thomas understands very well how to create a real community even in an online course by involving the participants and incorporating their feedback into his concept. Many thanks for that!
What I take away from this course are the eight self-quality characteristics that help me to strengthen my "self". They support me in distinguishing whether I am being controlled by my "self" or by an inner part.

I particularly liked the mixture of theory, practice and exchange in small groups and with all participants. Dear Thomas, many thanks for the professional seminar leadership, the impulses and the instructions for practicing after the course.

It was my first silent retreat. It was more relaxing than any previous vacation. As soon as body and mind get involved, a deep inner peace returns ... Martin led and accompanied the retreat wonderfully

The week was the best thing I've done for myself in a long time.

It was coherent and everything worked out. Very nice silent retreat with Martin.

I was happy with the group and the leader. That's why I've already booked the course again with the group in a year's time.

Thanks to Martin for a wonderful and lasting retreat that I will be able to draw on for a long time to come. The group gave me strength, accompanied by Martin's always appropriate impulses. I would love to come back to go into silence with you!

The silent retreat with Martin was a very special experience. Martin led the days very empathetically and always gave good impulses. The location was wonderful, peaceful, with lots of nature and great food. I am completely satisfied and can recommend the retreat without reservation!

It was a very trusting and warm-hearted atmosphere, where the participants' questions were always answered in detail.

Florian is a MAGICIAN!!!

It was a very inspiring, beneficial and intensive week! Florian did it very well, sensitively, humorously and extremely attentively "conjured". Thank you very much!

It was my second week in Kleinwalsertal. Thomas was impressively emphatic in guiding and accompanying us through the days. The journey of discovery into my innermost being was again very instructive. Thank you very much and I will be back.

It was the first seminar for me and I will certainly repeat or continue it. Really recommendable, just to come to rest and Thomas is a wonderful seminar leader
