Mamma Karma Om — 6-Day Retreat
The intensive phase of your treatment is behind you — or you are living with breast cancer long-term and are currently physically stable. This retreat is for a time when you want to step away from treatment, appointments, and everyday demands for a few days and focus on yourself again.
Therapiezentrum Mitte · Christinenstraße 5 · 10119 Berlin
Why This Retreat
When active treatment ends, the structure that came with it often disappears almost overnight. There are fewer appointments, everyday life takes over again, and somehow you are expected to simply get back to normal. But you may not feel “back to normal” at all.
Mamma Karma Om creates space for exactly this transition — or simply for a meaningful break if breast cancer and treatment have been part of your life for longer. Six days to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and explore what supports you now.
Six days to:
- slow down and rest
- have structure without any pressure to perform
- reconnect with your body
- discover what feels good and supportive right now
Who This Retreat Is For
- you have completed active treatment, or are currently on long-term treatment and feel physically well enough to take part
- you want to take some intentional time for yourself
- you would like to discover yoga and Ayurveda or deepen your existing practice
- you are drawn to six days with a gentle daily rhythm, connection with other women, and plenty of time and space for yourself

A Typical Day
The day winds down gently. No obligations. No “you should”.
Where You’ll Stay
Künstlerhof Roofensee is an important part of the retreat experience: a peaceful place surrounded by forests and lakes, with natural materials, plenty of space, and a calm atmosphere.
You will stay in a spacious two-story apartment shared with one other woman from the group. Your bedroom is entirely your own, while you share a generous living room, kitchenette, sun terrace, and bathroom.
A place to slow down, breathe, and simply be.

What Participants Say
The retreat days were intense, enriching, and challenging all at once. I felt very comfortable and well taken care of. I experienced the open exchange with the other participants as something very precious.
With Carmen, who left nothing to chance in the planning but really thought through the entire retreat carefully. We were all deeply moved by this wonderful atmosphere.
This course week exceeded my expectations many times over. Through Carmen and Maya’s attentive, respectful, and mindful care for the participants, we did not just get to know Ayurvedic healing methods. Yoga, meditation, shared meals, and evening rituals allowed me inner retreat and self-discovery in a trusting atmosphere. I would love to come again! Thank you!
Carmen has supported and advised me since the beginning of my diagnosis, and that is also how I became aware of her retreat. At first I thought: can I really take myself out of my everyday life at home for 6 days? I do not know anyone there — what if I do not like it, or feel lonely? But what I experienced instead were wonderful days and time for myself in beautiful nature, in a cozy place to stay, with a structured daily routine and engaging content, wonderful Ayurvedic food, and above all an incredibly warm exchange between all the women and, of course, with Carmen and Maya too. Would I do it again? Definitely! I also wanted to find out what I was actually still capable of after the challenging treatment, and I was so proud of myself for managing 2 × 75 minutes of yoga a day. An absolute recommendation for women affected by this.
A wonderful retreat for women who are all in the same situation. Carmen (Ayurveda) and Maya (yoga) guided us through the days with great warmth and passion, and the Künstlerhof is a beautiful place to come down, rest, and recharge. I had set out with the idea of a mini rehab — and my expectations were far exceeded. That was thanks not only to the program, but also to the wonderful women, the other participants, whom I got to know during those days at Roofensee.
Empowering, healing, mindful, heartwarming, loving, competent, delicious — those are just a few of the words that describe this special retreat. Carmen put together a wonderful program. It fit exactly right and still left enough room for exchange and for enjoying the beautiful surroundings. I met wonderful women and have already signed up with Carmen for a new retreat as a group.
Six days where breast cancer can be part of your story — without taking up all the space.
