Darkness as a path to deep regeneration and self-knowledge

"From the first visit to the darkness I was fascinated by how darkness therapy reliably and deeply affects the human psyche and body. I was therefore eager to create a space in my home where I could share this unique experience with others, and my garden with its stream proved to be the ideal place for this therapy. Today, hundreds of people come to us from the Czech Republic and abroad, seeking peace, new perspectives or a path to inner balance. Many return and confirm that the darkness can be a profound tool for change.

I myself regularly return to the darkness to indulge in moments of peace and rest. Since childhood, I have also cared about protecting nature, which is why I created a digital detox option for those who lack peace and nature in their current lives.

Therapy in the dark - What will my stay bring me?

Effective and yet so simple. That's why we go into the dark ourselves.

Rest and regeneration of body and mind

Darkness brings a deep peace to the body and mind. It helps to relax, to grow tired and to recharge. It promotes the production of melatonin, thus improving sleep and tuning biorhythms. In silence, you become aware of your own breathing and heartbeat - and learn to be fully present.

A healthy relationship with yourself and your surroundings

Silence and darkness bring you closer together. Without distractions, you can more easily perceive your thoughts, emotions and needs. When external stimuli disappear, there is space to connect more deeply with your own inner self and realize what is truly important to you.

Developing intuition and creativity

In the dark, creativity is given free rein. Without distracting images, new ideas, insights and solutions come. Even with eyes closed, the mind can create vivid inner images - and it is often in the dark that this ability deepens.

Digital detox - If you are just looking for peace in nature

Unwind in your own cottage hidden in the heart of the Beskydy nature.

Disconnect to reconnect

Unique cabins to escape from screens and recharge in nature. Digital detox means voluntarily giving up your smartphone, laptop and social networks for a period of time.

Just a natural dose of the best

Immersing yourself in nature is scientifically proven to improve mood, reduce stress and promote creative thinking. Combine this with disconnecting from the online world and you'll feel like a new person.

It's time to refresh your mind and not your browser

Therapy has had an unexpected effect on me. It turned out that I needed to sort out things from the past and that worked too! Thanks to the people in the right place who looked after me all the time, I was able to focus on myself. Thank you so much! I highly recommend it!

I've considered staying in the dark for several years. I knew I wanted a reliable and experienced guide. Roman had worked with the psychology department, done research, and had 10 years of experience. In the end, my decision for Kozlovice turned out to be the right one. The stay was clearly beneficial and perfect for me. The cottage is just the right size, perfectly furnished and easy to remember. The food was perfectly light and very tasty. Roman was the perfect guide, his guiding had a profound effect on me and several ideas for subsequent work with the dark experiences were generated. I recommend Roman and his stays!

The darkness called me. And I'm glad I chose Kozlovice. I felt tired the whole time until the guide came and brought a nice supportive energy to the whole room. The stay was interesting for me, both in terms of my body and mind's reaction to the darkness, and in terms of interesting conversations with the guide. I am now calmer, more balanced, more stable. I definitely recommend everyone to try it.

The dark therapy was an amazing experience that helped me to fully connect with myself. I will definitely do it again sometime in the future. Thank you for the great service.
