Your Private Couples' Retreat in Sardinia 

Immerse into love, into life, your soul and the quality of your relationship. ♡

Welcome to this exclusive journey of conscious relating, intimacy, and personal growth, where it’s just the two of you and me as the facilitator. (This is NOT a group retreat)

Our 5-day/4-night private retreat in the captivating landscapes of Sardinia is thoughtfully designed to strengthen your bond, reignite your intimacy, and create cherished memories together.

Alisa and I are so appreciative for the very special time we spent with you. The beautiful retreat you offer at Mascarato was the highlight of our trip. The work we did has made such a difference for us, since our time with you we often work through some of the very insightful practices you shared that help us along in our journey together. We still day dream about the rejuvenating sleeps, your restorative mediations and yoga and the magical location and its magnetic energy that we crave and will surely return for. Your programme was wonderful and we felt tended too and had such constructive and helpful sessions together but we also had so much time to enjoy the magic of the area that surrounded us. It really was a perfect balance and we have thrived in every was since. We can’t wait to visit again and have another retreat with you. Thank you again, Love Ashley & Alisa

We worked with Elke during a four day couple retreat. Starting from a place of deep hurt and disconnect, Elke was able to hold space and guide us in a way, that brought us together. There was ample time to have deep conversations and counselling sessions together without feeling rushed. Elke did not shy away from difficult conversations; rather enabled us to articulate ourselves sensitively. Each person felt valued and heard. Elke uses different techniques from her years of experience and blended them together in such a way that was seamless and appropriate to our circumstance. She spent many hours with us and was able to delve deep into our issues in order to bring understanding and healing. Elke is an expert and compassionate practitioner and we would recommend her highly.

I chose this retreat as Elke had amazing reviews and she seemed very welcoming and easy to talk to and her retreat was extremely beneficial for both of us. Plus it’s Italy!Improved communication and learned how to understand each other better.Definitely worth the experience. Amazing retreat hosts. Make sure you get to enjoy Sardinia as well.

The 4 day retreat was a great experience for us! We learned so much about the vast field of Sacred Sexuality & Tantra, which we wanted to focus on during our time in Sardinia. Elke enabled us to open up easily and naturally, and expand our erotic spectrum quite a bit. She taught us so much about our energy body, our sensual experience, as well as our awareness of our breath and how to create tantric rituals. It was a really deep experience in a super comfortable intimate setting where everyone could just be who they are. We highly recommend this retreat for couples who want to learn more about the tantric path and deepen their relationship on a spiritual level.

If you want to change your life due to certain circumstances or even if you're „just" unhappy & stucked and looking for a more fulfilling and conscious life Elke is the best coach to ask for support!!! She helped me out when I was on the „deepest" point in my life and managed to transform me in a better version" of myself without all the burdens I was carrying with me my whole life... I'm so immensely grateful for this support and truly recommend this therapy to everyone who is still looking for a fulfilling life made by the power of your own true self and potential ❤️DANKE liebe Elke!!!

Amidst the picturesque beauty of Sardinia, you'll find moments of privacy and reflection that allow you to connect with each other and yourself on a deeper level.

Connection grows in moments we sometimes even not Connection grows in moments we sometimes even not notice.
The small signals.
The silence.
The way we move toward someone or pull away.This retreat grew out of the work I do every day.
Observing what happens between people.
And what shifts inside one person when we relate.The Space Between

We call it chemistry, but often it’s recognition — We call it chemistry,
but often it’s recognition — a familiar emotional pattern that feels like attraction.When we meet someone new, our subconscious scans for what it already knows.
That means we’re often drawn to people who mirror our early experiences —
the way love once felt available, inconsistent, or conditional.This is why chemistry can be powerful, but also misleading.
It can reconnect us with warmth, safety, and vitality —
or it can activate old attachment patterns that pull us into repetition.The work is not to distrust attraction,
but to understand what part of us is being drawn in.
Awareness turns chemistry into choice.⸻#RelationshipCoaching #AttachmentPatterns #ConsciousRelationships #EmotionalAwareness #ElkeBayer #InnerWork #RelationshipDynamics #SelfAwareness #LoveAndPsychology #TherapeuticInsight
We all want connection. But sometimes, we mistake We all want connection.
But sometimes, we mistake it for intensity, approval, or control.I often see how people lose their inner peace
when they start to merge instead of relate.Real connection means staying in contact without losing yourself.
It’s the balance between openness and calm,
between giving space and being seen.That’s what I teach in my relationship coaching sessions —
how to stay connected without giving up your center.⸻#RelationshipCoaching #ConsciousRelationships #HealthyConnection #EmotionalAwareness #AuthenticLiving #InnerBalance #ElkeBayer #CouplesCoach #MindfulCommunication #ModernRelationships
I miss October.Not only because of the beautiful I miss October.Not only because of the beautiful weather.What made it truly special was the retreat time with two amazing groups at Mascaratu.People arrived with their stories, patterns, and habits — and somehow, within five days, everyone found their own rhythm, and a rhythm together.Through paying attention to what the heart needed most.Some quiet time alone, shared moments in nature, and the easy talks over dinner.My new retreat The Space Between grew out of that feeling.Out of the realisation that understanding yourself doesn’t happen in stillness alone —it happens in the spaces between us, in reflecting yourself through others.And it happens in the pause, when you turn inward and notice what’s present when nobody else is around.〰️The Space Between 〰️ is five days of yoga, meditation, coaching, and Sardinia’s quiet wildness.For anyone who wants to understand themselves and others with a little more honesty and ease.⫸ Dates: 12–17 May 2026⫸ Location: Mascaratu, Sardinia⫸ Language: English (with optional German translation if needed)⫸⫸ Message me to be added to the early interest list.#TheSpaceBetween #SardiniaRetreats #ElkeBayer #YogaAndCoaching #AuthenticLiving #ConsciousRelationships #InnerConnection #ModernRetreat #MindfulConnection #SelfAndOthers #PresencePractice
Yesterday at a friend’s dinner, I had an inspireri Yesterday at a friend’s dinner, I had an inspirering conversation with an Italian guy next to me — someone I only vaguely knew.
We talked about music, the artists we love, and how we both cried when David Bowie died.It was such a small, unexpected moment of resonance.And it made me aware again of how much the events of our lives shape us — the years we grew up in, the feelings we carried, the things that marked us without us noticing.Sometimes these shared timelines create an immediate sense of familiarity, even with someone we barely know.Other times, sitting at the same table doesn’t mean sharing the same experience.Two people can look at the same scene and feel something completely different — because each of us brings our own memories, fears, hopes, and quiet inner world to that moment.Last night reminded me how naturally we connect when we share common ground even if we come from different countries —and how much deeper conversations become when we recognise the emotional landscape behind someone’s words.So please don’t talk to me about the weather. ;-)#HumanConnection #EmotionalAwareness #EverydayMoments #ConnectionMatters #HonestConversations #MeaningfulMoments #LifeBetweenLines #PersonalReflection #InnerWorlds #StoriesWeCarry #ElkeBayer #SardiniaLife
I often see how couples lose their connection not I often see how couples lose their connection not because they stop loving each other, but because life gets too busy or there are lots of misunderstandings. We forget to really listen, to slow down, to see the person in front of us.In my sessions, I offer a calm space to reconnect — to talk honestly, understand what’s been missed, and find new ways of being together.If this speaks to you, send me a message. We’ll find the right moment for your session — online or here in Sardinia.⸻Hashtags:
