New Year Retreat | January 12–16, 2026 – Ibiza
Break your patterns before Blue Monday and start 2026 stress-free, powerful and clear.
In a luxury villa in Ibiza, we, Joost & Priscilla, will take you on a five-day transformational journey. No vague sessions, but truly profound work that will help you leave negative beliefs, self-pleasing behavior, and self-doubt behind.
Why join now?
Blue Monday – the bleakest day of the year – is coming up again. Many people feel empty, dejected, or stuck after the holidays. This retreat is strategically planned just before that dip hits. You'll give yourself the chance to start the new year with peace, strength, and clarity. Instead of waiting for change, you'll create it yourself.
A transformative 5-day break in Ibiza
For five days, you'll stay in a beautiful private villa surrounded by nature and tranquility. Along with a maximum of nine other participants, you'll delve into body-oriented and systemic work. The program is intensive, yet always warm and personal. Expect breakthroughs, new insights, and the space to truly connect with yourself.
- Body-oriented & systemic work
- Small-scale and personal (max. 10 participants)
- Luxury villa with sauna, hot tub & swimming pool
Who is this Retreat for?
This retreat is for adults (18+) who feel it's time to let go of old patterns. Perhaps you recognize yourself in self-pleasing behavior, often doubt yourself, or find it difficult to set healthy boundaries. You long for more peace, clarity, and self-love. Experience with retreats or therapy is not necessary, but a willingness to explore yourself is.
What do you gain from it?
During these five days, you'll break through destructive patterns and learn to recognize negative beliefs. You'll experience setting healthy boundaries without guilt, develop greater self-love and self-confidence, and start 2026 with a firm intention and a clear mind. The transformation you experience here will last long after the retreat.
How do we work?
Our program combines body-oriented work, systemic work (such as family constellations), and moments of reflection. We work in group sessions and provide space for individual deepening. Through silent exercises, movement, and integration exercises, you'll have the opportunity to truly let everything sink in within your body and life. A buddy system provides additional safety and depth.
Topics covered include breaking through survival strategies, healing insecure attachment, self-care, boundaries, and intentions for 2026.
The villa and surroundings
The retreat takes place in a spacious private villa in Ibiza. You'll stay in a natural, tranquil setting where you can completely unwind. The villa has five comfortable rooms (with shared bathrooms), a sauna, hot tub, and swimming pool. Our private chef prepares healthy and nutritious meals daily. While we stay in a separate tiny house, you'll have plenty of space to retreat whenever you want.

First get acquainted
Because we're keeping this retreat small, we believe it's important to find a good fit. That's why we schedule a short online meeting with each participant beforehand. During this meeting, you'll learn more about the retreat, have the opportunity to ask any questions, and we'll determine together whether this is the right time for you. This way, you can be sure this program is a good fit for your situation and desires.
Bonus: Blue Monday Follow-up
After the retreat, we won't just let you go. On Monday, January 19, 2026, the official Blue Monday, we'll meet online one last time. In a live group call, we'll reflect, review exercises, and you can share your experiences. This way, you'll integrate everything you've learned even more deeply. Optionally, you can book a one-on-one follow-up session.

ReviewsI'd like to share my experience with my husband and I about the relationship therapy I received from Joost and Priscilla. Relationship therapy sounds difficult to us, but we recommend it to everyone, even if your relationship is currently strong! We attended therapy with Joost and Priscilla. It was very helpful and comforting to talk together. Sometimes we felt overwhelmed. Joost and Priscilla are very knowledgeable and can summarize topics effectively. We were given assignments to do at home, which we still use in our daily lives. It all sounds so logical, but only when you face it head-on can you work on it. Thank you for your wonderful help!
A wonderful, warm place where they genuinely seek out what I need to move forward. They look at the core of my problems. This has helped me enormously to break through patterns effectively. Besides addressing the core, I also gained incredibly helpful and useful tools to truly change my approach and recognize when I'm falling back into old patterns. After completing my own process, I now also have the honor of helping others in this way. I was trained in the Weeber method by Joost and Priscilla and have become part of this wonderful team. It's wonderful to see and hear that this can make a huge difference in the lives of not only me but also many others.
