(The next ALIVE Foundations Event: October 19, 2025, 2 PM CET – October 24, 3 PM CET | Schliersee, Germany)

How alive do you feel in your body, your relationships, your work, your community? Do you live your life with a sense of purpose, feeling energized, in flow, and in awe of life’s beauty?

In our busy, modern lives we can easily lose touch with what wisdom traditions call “Qi”
“Prana” or “Life Force”, - the energy that fuels and directs life. This disconnection can produce a sense of disorientation, effort, heaviness and separation. Over time, this may lead to crises of meaning, relationships or work, and even physical or mental health issues.

In this workshop, we embark on a deeply personal journey of re-connecting to our life energy. And we re-discover how to use aliveness as a compass for re-aligning our choices with the flow of life.

Set in the beautiful Alps, we delve into the richness of our existence. We explore our basic human needs and boost our aliveness along 5 dimensions:

- Physical: What does our body need and like? We experiment with breathing techniques, hot and cold body exposure, awakening the senses, healthy and tasty food and lot’s of movement

- Emotional: How open is our heart? We experience both the beauty of vulnerability, and the power of a healthy expression of all emotions.

- Relational: Set in a safe and conscious group container we playfully experiment with the way we connet to each other and set boundaries. We also live, laugh, eat, sing, dance (and maybe cry) together as a template for healthy community

- Mental: Our minds crave for more than problem solving and worrying. We stretch and inspire them with poetry and ancient wisdom traditions

- Spiritual: In meditations, contemplations, trance and conversations we deepen the connection to our souls and investigate deep meaning.

During the exercises, we may encounter blockages to the flow of life energy. We will turn our attention to old emotions, beliefs and habits that limit our aliveness today, and gently transform them using a variety of individual and group coaching techniques.

After each exercise, participants will have the opportunity to reflect on their
experiences through journaling, group discussion, and guided inquiry, allowing
for deeper integration of insights.

A highlight of the program is the nature quest. Inspired by an ancient Native
American ritual, we will take an important life question into the forest. In
solitude, we will walk, sit and (if desired) sleep outside, inviting vision and
inspiration. This is often a deeply transformative ritual that can be a threshold to
a new chapter in one’s life.

Sounds experimental and ominous?
Hell yes!
