Leaders of the Heart
7-day retreat (english-spoken)
Sinai, Egypt
What?
We invite you to this week in the desert, hosted by the bedouins in camp Moussa, at the foot of some of the most powerful and mythological mountains in the world: Mount Sinai and Mount Katherine. Learn from the wisdom of the desert, join the circle of men from different cultures, nationalities and religions, and discover your own inner leader.
LABYRINTH OF HEALING
This leadership retreat is about taking personal leadership, and in doing so, creating a new standard of masculinity. One that is both open and grounded, both wise and playful, both sensitive and bold. In this process of inner development we become more complete, full human beings, with both our blind spots as well as our qualities. Dance, music, meditation, encounter and exploration helps us to walk the inner labyrinth. In the heart of it we feel the power of our soul, the silence of the universe pulsing through our own being.
The Journey
We work with the principles of Open Space, meaning we create the program together on the spot. We are all leaders of our own lives, and at the same time participants. The schedule is based on meeting twice a day in a circle (morning and evening) and we create the rest of the daily program together depending on what’s important in each moment. The highlight of the week will be a nightvigil on top of mount Sinai.

We are guests in another country, another culture and maybe for some of us another religion. Please respect the local customs, rules, dresscode and formalities.
Note that the main language spoken on the retreat will be in English.
We will be using Open Space, a way to give space to that what wants to reveal itself and to connect to that what resonates inside of you. Open Space gives the possibility to expect the unexpected, to be inspired by the moment, and to act from the heart. It is a sometimes discomforting method but one that can reveal magic beyond our imagination.
The main intention of our work is personal healing and growth. So the fuller you personally engage in the process, the more it might bring to you. We encourage your preparation and devotion to this work by tuning in the months and weeks before, by asking a few questions to yourself: what is my intention? What do I want to achieve? What is my pitfall or my shadow? How can I prepare myself?
Due to the context and content of this week, personal healing, no children – nor animals – are allowed.
No drugs of any sort are permitted, and we like you to limit alcohol, coffee and meat.
We don’t advocate conspiracy theories. We focus in our work on the heart.
In case of cancellation there will be a fee to be paid of €500.
