Mindfulness meditation brings us into here and now. Practicing mindfulness we become relaxed and powerful. It enables us to see our true nature which is like a pure diamond – indestructible and luminous.
Metta meditation opens our heart with love and compassion. It clears our illusion of ego and negative emotions like anger, attachment and stress.
Lu Jong tibetan healing yoga works simultaneously with body, mind and energy. We balance the elements and humours—the foundation of the physical body. We transform our negative emotions, and we invigorate the subtle body system of channels and wind-energy. The result is a beautiful, efficient and systematic practice that improves our wellbeing in all dimensions.
Lharampa Tenzin Kalden, a Buddhist monk and meditation instructor, will be your teacher during the entire retreat. He was born in Tibet and currently lives in Switzerland. At the Sera Monastic University in South India, where he studied for 17 years, he graduated in the five great sciences of Buddhism. He accomplished the MAS at the Salzburg University and Zen Institut Lassalle house for the Studies of interfaith spiritualism.

The largest town in Dalmatia and the second-largest in all Croatia (after Zagreb), Split is a quintessential Mediterranean city, with a small-town vibe, noisy streets, and easy-going locals.
This increasingly popular tourist destination had its ‘official’ beginning in the year 300AD. In that year the Emperor Diocletian began the construction of his palace here, which combined the elements of an imperial villa, a Hellenistic city and a Roman military fort. The historical centre was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list in 1979 and is a living museum and the place where you’ll find the majority of must-see sights in Split.
Kum Nye Tibetan healing massage originates in the monasteries of Tibet. Through different massage techniques chakras are opened on a gross level. The massage is used to release blocks and cramps and to relax muscles. Kum Nye healing massage can regenerate and balance the whole energy system.
The massage has a special benefit for physically hard working people, for those who regularly practice different body-practices, who do sports or have a sedentary way of life and suffer from tensions.
Kume Nye healing massage makes us feel more balanced and vital.
