„Spend some time alone every day.“
Where the worries of everyday life are far away and the silence of nature brings peace
Between work and the challenges of everyday life, one's own needs often get pushed aside. But the longer stressful phases last, the greater the longing for a period of relaxation becomes.
A time-out in the green heart of Austria can help you develop new routines in an unfamiliar environment. During a stay at a monastery in the midst of a natural landscape that emanates peace and quiet. While on a pilgrimage on the Mariazell Route or the Way of St. James, probably the two best-known pilgrimage routes in the Alpine region. Or while doing yoga – on the mountain, by the water, or in the midst of a vineyard. In Styria, you can choose from a variety of ways to achieve inner balance.
Meditative pilgrimages
Keep moving and still find peace: Walking meditation is a well-known practice in Buddhism. But in Christian monasteries, too, monks and nuns meditate while walking or while they practise silence.
Pilgrimages in Styria have a similar meditative character. The clear aim of a pilgrimage is to gather experiences on the often long journey – usually, to a holy place. At the same time, they're a journey to oneself and perhaps also to one's faith.
Mindfulness exercises: yoga
As yoga originated in India, its roots lie in Hinduism and, partially, Buddhism. During yoga practice, energies start to flow and the body is strengthened. Light yoga and mindfulness exercises can help reduce stress and improve wellbeing.
Those who do not pay attention to their inner voice for a long time often lose sight of their own needs. Styria, the green heart of Austria, is the perfect place to rediscover and relearn mindfulness.
On Styrian alpine pastures, surrounded by apple orchards and vineyards, or at a wellness hotel: A targeted yoga practice helps you become aware of any sensations and emotions, step by step.
