What is a retreat at retreat center The Land of Now in the Netherlands
Space for essence - Retreat center - Meetings - Training - Yoga weekend

Welcome

Meeting and inspiration

Stay at our Retreat Center for one of our own retreats (with Juliette en Frank), or stay here for a meaningful meeting or inspired training.

You are a guest in a living house. The Land of Now is a place for ideas to grow, a place of silence for those seeking peace and quiet, an inspiring place for encounters and deepening, and above all, a place that lives. A place that lives, where people live from the essence 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. And that makes the place unique.

Relax and meet

The lounge offers plenty of space to retreat with a book, or to meet others, seated by the wood-burning stove.

The conservatory is a nice intimate space with a view of the pond and can be used for individual conversations or to dream away in the sun.

Pre-overnight stays

Arriving and landing

Because many of our guests come from far, it may be nice to arrive an evening earlier.

Depending on the program you are following, and if the occupancy allows it, it is usually possible to book the night before your program starts.

Inviting

The location offers plenty of opportunities to wander around and find a quiet place to sit together or meditate on your own.

The well-covered pond is a favourite place for a tea break. Let yourself be inspired by nature, or simply enjoy the outdoors.

Animation

Contact with the essence

Enjoy the many birds that sit down in the garden, or if you’re sitting still you might catch a glimpse of our regular buzzard (we call him Harry).

And if you’re really lucky you might see a deer, hare or even a fox.

Praktice at The Land of Now

Therapy and individual guidance

The Land of Now offers various forms of guidance
on a mental and physical level.

Psychosocial counseling from the perspective of humanistic and person-oriented psychology. Talk therapy that offers support when you experience stress, or run into things in your personal life, relationships or work.

nutrition & lifestyle
In an Ayurvedic consultation we look at which diet and lifestyle is suitable for you so that you are able to be in optimal balance, or to restore balance. In case of complaints, advice can be given for additional treatment.

Yoga therapy integrates yogic principles, mindfulness and Ayurvedic knowledge with modern science and psychology. The therapy supports you to experience your optimal balance physically, mentally and emotionally and to reduce any complaints, or how you can deal with them.

Far enough from the daily hustle, close to life

For many, a visit to the Land of Now begins with the journey, to get away from the daily activities during the car or train journey with every kilometer travelled. On arrival you land into another world: The Land of Now. A welcome home, just a few hours away from your home.

Environment

Groninger landscape

The Land of Now (Siddeburen) is in close proximity to some beautiful cycling and walking routes. Several routes take you through beautiful places in the municipalities of Slochteren and Menterwolde. For instance along the estate Fraeylemaborg and its forest, or the ‘Schildmeer’ lake. The ‘Schildmeer’ lake is close by and is popular in summer for a dip in the water, in winter for a crackling skating trip.

Of course Groningen city, with its cosy cafes and the Groninger Museum, can be easily reached.
