You can go to The Land of Now for all your questions about Ayurveda therapy, lifestyle and nutrition.

Our kitchen also offers you inspiration. Our meals offer an inspiring and tasteful experience for all your senses. Organic and sustainable, Ayurvedic principles and plant-based whole foods.

Who will guide your yoga retreat?

Juliette and Frank, owners of retreat center The Land of Now, have many years of experience in guiding in-depth and inspiring retreats, training, and (therapeutic) 1 on 1 sessions.

In their teachings they take you to the heart of yoga. To the essence: the ‘lost teachings’ of authentic yoga. Supported by the richness of Ayurveda.

‘ intimacy with life ‘

Juliette Reniers

Juliette brings things back to the essence and inspires you to look beyond truths and fixed structures. From an early age she has always had an interest in philosophical and social issues. Adolescence made her a thriving professional artist and designer, giving her opportunities to express those things in life that go beyond words.

In addition to an ongoing deepening in philosophy and western psychology, she studied ancient wisdom cultures, authentic yoga movements, yoga therapy, trauma-sensitive yoga and in-depth Ayurveda. Her teachings offer a clear yoga path in authentic yoga and ayurveda.

She has guided many people in the important questions of life and autonomous critical thinking, guided retreats and trainings for more than 10 years, designed meetings and an ongoing curiosity for new and diverse projects that touch the core of her mission: a free and humane society .

Juliette is also the inspired designer of recipes and products and the chef in our food concept the Land of Taste , which we realize together with our enthusiastic team, in which an inspiring vision of food, taste and ethics comes together.

Just as yoga allows you to experience the intimacy of life, music and poetry are yoga for Juliette. The cello touches her deeply and she also enjoys discovering or using various other musical instruments.

The love for life is present in all her teachings, where she lets you experience the essence every time. Beyond an endless pursuit of a particular ideal, but a direct and intimate relationship with life in all its simplicity.

More about Juliette

Frank Eijkelkamp

Born in a small township where daily life lived in its natural rhythms, Frank grew up in a warm family that was always supportive in his interests and life choices, and they inspired him to contribute to society in pure deeds without so many words.

Having an artist’s soul, he studied classical music and became a pianist. During this time his interest arose to guide people in their personal growth and well-being.

He grew into other professions, such as meeting designer and facilitator, in which he let people and organizations experience the power of connection and wonder. Meetings with a human character and impact, in which his sense of composition and rhythm can be seen in every project.

Yoga crossed his path again and again and touched him intensely when he experienced the authentic yoga, where the breath is leading and yoga is the embrace of life.
The power of music is supportive in this and in the retreats that Frank and Juliette accompany, music is like a connecting thread with essence.

The contact with life is what Frank likes to let you experience. Whether this is in guiding a training or retreat, or in a simple conversation over a cup of tea: the essence of each individual is central.

Participants’ experiences

Our participants come from all over the world.
From (just) young and wise in spirit to more advanced age,
both women and men. All unique.
Each has its own color and story.

‘In one word WOW. I’m not quite sure how to begin to describe what I’ve experienced. This is indeed the heart of yoga. I already had a bit of experience with yoga, but looking back, it was more often a kind of physical struggle than yoga.

Your approach is something you just don’t come across (anymore?), and I would grant this experience to everyone. What you offer is truly unique, simple and incredibly powerful. This is the ‘ real deal ‘.’

mr.

‘Yoga. I’ve been doing it for years. And only now can I say ‘ I experience Yoga ‘. And my constant ‘must’ disappear. The completeness that you offer from your collectiveness has touched me deeply.’

‘What unconditional acceptance can’t unleash…

Thanks for that!’

‘It never ceases to amaze me how in no time you created a safe and well-behaved environment and flawlessly attuned to everyone’s energy. And then apparently automatically knew exercises that provided the necessary rest, relaxation or a stimulation of body and mind.

The atmosphere of these days, and the warm conversation we had, will always stay with me.’

Thank you for your attention, dedication, and helping overcome my fear.

What a wonderful present !’

‘What an enormous mountain of knowledge, experience and qualities you have in-house. So much inspiration!I can’t wait to take this knowledge and experience home and into my work as a psychologist. Bye!

‘Thank you very much for your attention to keep the focus 24 hours a day.

The zest for life radiates enormously! ‘

Dear Juliette and Frank,
Thank you… that I could and could be myself , for the peace and security, for new insights, for the silence, for the conversation with you Juliette – it touched me deeply, for the delicious food, for so much love. Thank you for letting me give and, above all, for receiving so much.’

‘Thank you for the good guidance and explanation about how I can apply Ayurveda for me. For all insights and your empowerment to trust and build on my own essence. I stop my eternal search ;-)’

‘That you can live in a completely different world for 3 days.

In 3 days you can make such a special contact with people you’ve never met before.’

‘For the 3rd time, but still a unique week.

Thanks, and who knows, until next time. ‘

Frontage of retreat center and training location in the nature of Groningen in The Netherlands The Land of Now

Schildmeer Nature Groningen training location and retreat center for yoga weekend and yoga retreat

Retreat in nature

Our retreat center is located in the middle of the peace and vastness of the authentic Groningen landscape near the city of Groningen. Here you can still hear the grass grow and contemplate beautiful starry skies.

In our park-like landscaped garden you can wander, relax or dive into the outdoor sauna. Here on ‘het Veen’, as the Veenweg residents put it, you regularly see special scenes. Turkeys on a trip, a hare that comes to neighborhoods or a deer that passes by in the early morning. From the location you can walk with vast horizons and the wind in your hair. A short distance away is the beautiful Schildmeer and the Roegwoldt.

Respect for nature is self-evident for us and we allow ourselves to be inspired by new possibilities every time.

A retreat can be used to gain clarity and depth about a certain theme and to explore new paths with the insights gained.

What is a retreat?Juliette Reniers2022-04-13T12:28:07+02:00

What is a retreat?

A retreat, also known as a retreat, is an age-old form to withdraw from the hectic pace of everyday life and to take space for essence. To take care of who you are and what you want in life.

A retreat today can be a welcome respite to look for that essence. Contemporary retreats are person-oriented and appropriate to the ideas of our time. The present time is a fast time in which we as human beings ask a lot of ourselves. Although this time gives us as an individual a sea of possibilities and freedom, it can sometimes be overwhelming to set the right course on that sea: your own unique course. A retreat offers that space and time. Time for the essence of life. Your life.
