YOUR STORY. YOUR GIFT.
Holistic Body-Mind Workout Retreat
by Kornelia & Gio at vigilius

In our everyday lives, routines keep us busy — yet something deeper stirs beneath the surface.

If you’ve ever felt the call of a part of yourself you’ve pushed away … If you long to meet it, name it and finally own it — then this 3-day retreat is for you. At this retreat, we’ll create the space, guide the process and equip you with tools to explore those parts of yourself you’ve been avoiding. In a setting surrounded by untouched nature, removed from your usual distractions, you’ll have the freedom to turn inward and listen.

Join us at the secluded vigilius.
Rediscover yourself. Let what’s hidden become your doorway.

YOUR STORY. YOUR GIFT.

Who we are

We — Kornelia & Giovanni — will be your facilitators, guardians and guides.

Though our frameworks differ, they complement each other beautifully:

  • Kornelia (from South Tyrol) supports you in letting go of toxic patterns and inner stress through somatic and holistic practices rooted in her mountain-spirit connection.
  • Giovanni (based between Berlin & Amsterdam, originally from Milan) left the corporate world to devote himself to body-mind work: mobility, flexibility and movement as windows into mental exploration.

Together we bring you a rare blend: spiritual depth + physical energy. You’ll be invited to select the path that resonates most — and we’ll guide you on it.
