Matter of the Heart: Prayer

The Soul's Home Pharmacy – The Art of Living for Everyday Life

From the November of Questions to the Advent of Hope, November 6th - 8th, 2026 at Kloster Cazis. Following last year's successful premiere, the "Soul's Home Pharmacy" will open for you again this autumn. In seven impulses – supported by thoughts from Holy Scripture and Viktor Frankl's logotherapy – Michael Ragg unlocks spiritual resources that strengthen you in everyday life: understandable, humorous, and relatable. The lectures pick up on the special atmosphere of November: as the days grow darker, questions about transience and "last things" become more prominent – at the same time, the longing for trust, orientation, and hope grows. From here, the path leads step by step to the preparation for Advent: the time of longing and inner preparation for the arrival of the Redeemer. The retreat weekend is a deepening continuation for previous participants – and at the same time an ideal entry point for new interested parties. In addition to a cheerful yet profound film on Saturday evening, look forward to the following topics: • "Do not forget all his benefits" (Ps 103,2) Gratitude as a source of strength against hopelessness and fear • "Test everything; hold fast what is good" (1 Thess 5,21) Tidying up in the house and in life – and becoming new internally • "In your hand is my life" (Ps 31,16) My death, my decision? The dignity of life until the end • "Let not your hearts be troubled" (Joh 14,1) Ways out of worry and fear – toward freedom and trust • "Do not grieve like the rest" (1 Thess 4,13) Farewell, the grave, and remembrance as sources of hope and joy in life • "Rejoice always in the Lord" (Phil 4,4–5) Rediscovering and passing on the joy of Advent. Participants describe this course as "medicine for body, mind, and soul" – as "powerful, moving, and applicable to everyday life." Particularly appreciated is the combination of profound content, vivid examples, and personal testimony, which provides sustainable impulses for one's own
