Stupa Retreat Center
The new Stupa Center Winterswijk will offer a rich variety of weekend retreats, midweek and longer retreats featuring themes as Selfcare, Balance at Work, Kum Nye Tibetan Yoga, Inner Peace, Buddhist Studies, Meditation, Mindfulness, Caring and Healthy Living. You are also welcome for a private stay which can become your own private retreat. We will also organise project programs which can be seen as balance-in-action retreats in which participants combine volunteer work with group – and private practice.

Through experiment, reflection, and dialogue, we can discover the beauty we are already living. We can be one with the world we are.
