You will gain valuable knowledge about healthy breathing in everyday life and sports, and be professionally guided through yoga & meditation exercises by Conny Stromsky.

The location
Schweibenalp is situated at 1,100 metres above sea level and offers pure nature far above the blue Lake Brienz and a magnificent Alpine panorama. Our ice pool is the small bubbling mountain stream just below the Centre of unity. The picturesque guest house was built in the early days of Swiss mountain tourism. The guest rooms are simple and lovingly decorated. All meals are vegetarian and organic.
