A Fairy Tale Retreat in Germany

Join us for an enchanting retreat at a German castle where we’ll craft healing fairy tales together.

Tap into your mysteriously wise self.

  • WRITE YOUR HEALING TALE

    Over three days at the retreat, you’ll engage in interactive writing exercises that will help you access your story. Our seasoned guides will help you unlock your narrative potential, turning your ideas into enchanting stories. Whether you are writing a tale that is a gift for yourself or a treasure for your grandchildren, you’ll pen a fairy tale that embodies the magic you wish you’d encountered as a child. No writing experience needed, just a love of stories.

  • TAP INTO HEALING MAGIC

    Learn how to create a story that resonates deeply with the heart. Your tale will surprise you and nourish you with its creativity and healing insights. Our structured way of writing healing tales releases compassionate insights. Stories can act as a salve for our wounds, unfolding new insights and connecting us to empowering emotions. Stories can give us a glimpse of a pathway towards self-compassion, inner peace and love.
