Upcoming Retreats:
Retreat - Breath of Becoming
New Beginnings – A Lunar Call to Self
🌑 17-19 April 2026, Vadstena, Sweden | Under the Aries New Moon
Can you hear it?
A breath before becoming.
A call to rise, expand, remember.
A moment to step into the new — not by force, but by soft intention.
This retreat is an invitation to align with the energy of spring — a season of movement, becoming, and bold beginnings.
Under the first new moon of the zodiac, we gather to cleanse the old, root into our un-masked truth, and open space for what wants to grow.
With breathwork as the anchor, we’ll explore the body's intelligence, release what no longer serves, and awaken the courage to meet what’s next.
Supported by movement, stillness, silence, rituals, and the spring winds themselves - this is a portal into your next becoming.
Retreat Summer 2026:
Embers of You
Retreat – Into the Fire
Authenticity, Alignment & the Power of Inner Voice
🌕 26–29 June 2026, Vadstena, Sweden
Can you feel it?
The summer pulse that stirs something deeper.
A heat that rises - not just in the air, but in you.
A call to stand rooted, real, and wildly yourself.
This retreat is an invitation into the full expression of your being - supported by the season’s bold expansion and the grounded wisdom of earth.
Alchemizing with the seasong elements, and with breathwork as the anchor, we’ll move, feel, speak, and soften - exploring what it means to be fully in your body, your voice, your life.
Join for an immersive retreat in the middle of nowhere (or actually we are in the middle of a medial witch node…) as we work with the fire season of Summer. This retreat is designed for those seeking to reconnect with themselves, recharge their spirits, and explore the transformative power practices that guides through shadows towards the fire, light and love.
Why parts of these Retreats are in Silence?
Some people love it, some feel resistance - but the practice of silence allows you to channel your intention inwards. To get aware of the small things, that can make a huge difference 🤗
