Nature of Man - rediscovering your clarity as a man

Our concentrated 4-day impulse to get back on track - to your identity, your role in society and in relationships as well as your personal path as a man.

Immerse yourself in the power of the mountains and find answers to the questions that really matter:
🗻 Who are you really? 
💡 What role do you want to play as a man in society and in relationships?
🔥 How do you want to work, act and live? What are your values, goals, skills and resources?

Our 4-day retreat (with 3 months of follow-up support!) in Chiemgau is an intensive experience for men who are looking for clarity, strength and a new focus in life. Through in-depth reflection, nature experiences, bodywork and mentoring, you will discover what defines you as a man - and how you can shape your life in a self-determined way.

 In the midst of an impressive mountain world, an experience awaits you that connects you deeply with your original power. Hikes and via ferratas, ice baths, meditation, intensive bodywork and deep reflection create space to let go of old patterns and return to life with new energy. Our experienced mentors accompany you on this path of self-development and strengthen your inner balance.

Hardly any other environment has as much power for transformation and inner and outer vision as the mountains. Come as a curious seeker, leave as a whole man. 

"It's not the mountain we're conquering -
We conquer ourselves."
Edmund Hillary

REWARD

The following topics will be covered

self-discoveryDay 1: Who are you really? - Your identity as a man

Who are you - really? Beyond social expectations, professional roles and family obligations? This day is an in-depth exploration of your own identity.

We start with an intensive reflection on the imprints and beliefs that have unconsciously controlled you up to now. Through guided impulses, sharing in the group and physical experience exercises, you will recognize which parts of yourself are authentic and which may have been shaped by external expectations.

Contents & methods:
🔹 Scientific personality test (Value of 650€ - already included in the retreat price!)
🔹 Awareness work: Who are you underneath all your roles?
🔹 Exploring your values: What is really important to you in life?
🔹 Mindfulness exercises & nature experience: Using silence to gain clarity
🔹 Bodywork & movement: Feel how your body is connected to your inner posture
🔹 Evening reflection session: Share your insights with other men

At the end of the day, you will have a deep understanding of your own identity as a man and the first answers as to which path you want to take.

Day 2: Your role as a man in relationships - authenticity, clarity and genuine connection

Expectations of men in relationships have never been as contradictory as they are today. Be sensitive, but strong. Be a leader, but equal. Be successful, but not dominant. The question is: What does it really mean to be a man in relationships - without bending?

Today, we are dispelling myths and false expectations of masculinity. We separate social expectations from what is truly healthy and fulfilling. We question old patterns, false ideals and outdated clichés - but also the modern insecurity of many men in their dealings with other men and women.

The focus is on how you as holistic, self-confident man are in relationships: clear, present and unafraid to live your own truth.

Contents & methods:
🔹 Dispelling myths: What women really want vs. what you think they want
🔹 Authenticity instead of adaptation: How to be genuine and confident as a man in relationships
🔹 Attraction through presence: What really works - regardless of status or appearance
🔹 Be emotionally independent: Why your happiness shouldn't depend on a relationship
🔹 Healthy polarity: How male and female energy complement each other without falling into clichés
🔹 Self-worth & boundaries: When you're a rock for a woman - and when you should leave

The goal:

After this day, you will have a clear idea of how you stand in relationships. Not out of insecurity or social pressure, but out of genuine strength that comes from within.

Day 3: Your role in society and at work - making a self-determined and powerful impact

How do you want to stand in the world? What values do you want to convey to the outside world? And above all: do you feel fulfilled in your current role, or do you feel determined by others?

This day is dedicated to your professional and social positioning. It is about understanding your inner drive and recognizing which work, which environment and which form of self-realization really suits you.

Contents & methods:
🔹 Profession vs. vocation: Work as a burden or as an expression of your values?
🔹 Your effect on others: How you show yourself and get noticed
🔹 Sovereignty in the professional environment: How to radiate clarity, authority and confidence
🔹 Goal setting, mindset & vision: Where do you want to be in 5 or 10 years?
🔹 Practical strategy development: First concrete steps for your new direction

This day will give you the clarity and self-confidence you need to actively shape your role in society - without being driven by external expectations.

Day 4: Integration & future vision - your next chapter as a man

The last few days have been intense - full of insights, new perspectives and in-depth reflection. But how do you put everything you've learned into practice in everyday life?

The last day is for integration. We combine the most important findings of the last few days and develop an individual roadmap for your next steps together.

Contents & methods:
🔹 Anchoring knowledge: What has changed for you?
🔹 Individual roadmap: Concrete steps for your life after the retreat
🔹 Closing ritual: Consciously celebrate and consolidate your new clarity as a man
🔹 Joint reflection: Sharing the biggest changes and aha moments

You will leave the retreat with a clear plan, new inner strength and a strong men's community behind you - ready to shape your life in a more conscious, self-determined and fulfilling way.

3 months of follow-up support - anchoring your transformation in everyday life

The real change only begins after the retreat - in your everyday life, in your relationships, in your professional environment. So that you not only take your insights with you, but also implement them sustainably, we accompany you for 3 months with online meetings every two weeks.

In a fixed group of men who are on the same path, we reflect together on your progress, challenges and successes. You will receive targeted impulses, can ask questions and remain motivated to continue your development through the exchange.

Duration: 3 months | Rhythm: Every two weeks | Format: Online meetings in the group

👉 You are not alone on your journey - we stand by your side.
