What connects South Africa, the Netherlands and a post-glacial hill among forests in Kujawy? One soothing story about a dream come true and two happy people. I was lucky to grow up in these parts and for many years I cherished the memory of the green land among lakes where I spent my childhood. It was not overshadowed even by the lush, untouched nature of South Africa, where I went to learn how to work with the BSR: Body Stress Release method. Thirteen years ago, South Africa was the only place in the world where this technique was taught. The method that allows you to release the body from tension and restore the nervous system to healthy functioning fascinated me. I wanted others to also experience the feeling of relief in the whole body, which brings the first few sessions.
Although there were many challenges on the way to fulfilling my dream, I managed to get my BSR diploma. Since then, I have the most beautiful job in the world. I help others understand their body and listen to its instructions. A few years after me, my husband also left the other side of the globe from the Netherlands, where we spent 30 years of our lives to learn it. And then we returned to Poland. We found this place, where apart from a hill and cranes walking behind it, there was nothing. Every tree, flower and carrot from the vegetable garden is the fruit of our work. We live on the ground floor of a wooden house overlooking fields, meadows, forests and moose visiting us from time to time. The whole floor of the house is for you. Come to us with family or friends: learn about the benefits of our treatments (only if you feel like it), practice Qi Gong together, taste exotic dishes from our inspired kitchen. Take a herbal bath among the trees, look into the distance from the terrace and listen to the birds singing. It will be super relaxing.

Host:
Agata i Andy
We speak these languages: Polish, English, German, Dutch
We are on-site, we want to get to know our guests better (always ready to talk and participate)
In 2017, we came to Poland after 30 years in the Netherlands (Andy is Dutch of Polish origin). One of the reasons for returning was the desire to live in a place as close to nature as possible and to live in harmony with nature. That's why the house of our dreams was built in a secluded place (in the middle of nowhere), but very charming. We have been dealing with the Body Stress Release (BSR) health technique since 2010 and this was another reason for coming to Poland. We wanted to introduce this manual technique in Poland so that as many people as possible could benefit from its beneficial effects on the body and spirit. In practice, it turned out that combining a stay with us with BSR treatments provides maximum health benefits. Just one weekend makes you feel differently and thus perceive reality differently. It's such a reset in every respect. Details about BSR: www.zurawidzar.pl
I will add that cooking and entertaining guests is our hobby, but at a high level.
Andy loves music, Polish literature, cooking and photography.
I, Agata, like to practice Qi gong (I like to do it with guests), work in the garden because I love all flowers, and I read a lot (I am interested in everything related to health).
Gino, our male cat, is our third child. He is allowed to do almost everything except going up to the first floor where the guest area is. Because some people may be allergic or don't like cats.
