Expect it to be a relaxed yet productive 3 days with fun, lots of energy, a clear mind and plenty of inspiration!

If you wanted to make meaningful progress on a project without distractions, tackle an old dream like starting a book/ website, work on your long plan life-strategy & self-development, create a turning point for yourself, de-procrastinate your to-do list, finally declutter your computer, etc… this is a unique time to get into it.

All you have to do is turn up and let your productivity flow effortlessly! The details are taken care of so you can focus on what matters to you.

We’ll get our brains into deep-focus using the Flow-Productivity method. Most people 2-3x their effectiveness, without stress.

We work hard to keep the retreats affordable, while being high value for you (delicious food and beautiful space). We do it more for the fun than for the money.

COCONAT Summer Games!

COCONAT Summer Games!

The Coconat team makes beds, taps beer, and polishes whiteboards to high gloss … so we are not bored. But sometimes you just wanna get some dirt under your fingernails… and there is still much to do.
So, from Saturday 19th August to Friday 31st August, everything is about painting and building.

In March and April we put the common rooms on to the top, now we finally tackle the duhn duhn duhn –  hotel rooms:

• We want to clean the sleeping rooms in the west wing of all COLOR CRIMES

• We would like to paint the windows, so that pesky rain stays out!
• Great furniture shall by built! (e.g., upcycling lamps and shelves)

Few things satisfy better than a day of sweaty work, yet this is not all:

Please tell us (janosch@coconat-space.com) as soon as you can, tell if and how long you want to be there and whether you plan some of your own projects.

All the best,

Your country bumpkins!
