This year, we’ll have a Wake Up Netherlands Summer retreat at the Maanhoeve. With lovely Wim, Ida, dog Lisa, some ponies, pigs and sheep, a wonderful huge spiritual garden, probably some monastics from the EIAB and lots of awesome Wake Up friends from the entire country *and maybe even beyond!

In this retreat we will be asking ourselves: How can we cultivate joy & happiness in ourselves and in this world and not be overwhelmed by suffering?

Wim and Ida invite us at their beautiful rural meditation farm, the Maanhoeve. The program will be facilitated by them together with a group of enthusiastic Wake Up friends. As well as the usual program of sitting meditation, Dharma talks and mindful eating and so on, we’ll have plenty of time to relax and restore ourselves by being close to nature – on walking meditations, working on farm, and spending time together around bonfires. There will be music and laughter, as well as time to listen deeply and share from our hearts.
