18 & 19 September 2026: Shiatsu for Burnout with Photographer, teacher, organizer and Wudan Softie Mike Mandl from Austria
Overwork, burnout and crisis management
Are you the archetypal helper that puts your own needs last? This one is for you. But it’s not just you. It’s also a sign of the times.
So inner, so outer
so outer, so inner
The cards have been reshuffled: in times of multiple crises and constant emotional and mental overload, burnout has become the new normal. A state of deep exhaustion and inner emptiness is the modern-day norm for many people, including therapists. If we want to initiate real healing, we need to look deeper and approach the feeling of burnout differently than we did a few years ago. Addressing stress symptoms and promoting regeneration is no longer enough to face the great challenges within and without. What is needed is a comprehensive reconnection with the inner compass. A complete realignment of the basic energetic structure. A transformation from doing to being. We have to emerge with purpose and meaning to see our future bright and inviting. These are precisely the topics we will address this weekend, putting ourselves at the centre of attention.
Focus
– Contemporary energetic interpretation of burnout states
– Understanding and accompanying the structure of crises with Shiatsu
– Initiating your own healing process
– A clear treatment protocol for each individual step of inner transformation
– Precision in diagnostics and psychosomatics

The weekend is a shared space to explore the challenges women are facing today, to learn from one another, and to deepen connection—to our feminine essence and to each other. To nourish the feminine is to cultivate warm connection, care and nurturing, the ability to receive and our innate creative capacity.
