Our Retreat Space - Luckerstad Gård
-
Luckerstad Guesthouse is a cosy manor environment nestled in the heart of the Östgöta plain. AnnCharlotte is the owner of the farm and everything from food, to garden, to facilities are created with the utmost love which is felt by the whole atmosphere.
During our days we will enjoy all sessions in a beautiful Orangery, we will eat our meals in the main mansion, in the lush fruit garden or by the pool.
-
Two cosy houses, the White Guesthouse and the red Cottage, with fresh and clean rooms. In the white guesthouse every room has its own toilet and shower. In the red house 4 persons shares the whole house of two flors, one bathroom. Each participant shares a room with one other person of the same sex during the retreat (if you do not book a private room).
The sharing of rooms is usually a very nice experience, even if you come alone. Fresh linen and towels included.
-
You will have the most gorgeous view of Lake Vättern, the plain and the fantastic sunrise as well as sunset. You live secluded but still close to the medieval town of Vadstena with its castle, monastery church, monastery museum and picturesque alleys.
To take a walk, a run and maybe end up with a dip in Vättern with its clear water and sandy bottom is highly recommended
There will be free time to spend in the beautiful surrounding nature. Take a walk, a dip in the (very cold) lake.
The Retreat- Food

With the help from our head chef Ann Charlotte, who implement and create mainly from locally-sourced ingredients. our hope is that you will feel nourished and also inspired after the weekend.

Kia mixes Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin, Restorative and has a playful, creative approach with breath, energy and laughter always very present.

Shared rooms are often a really nice experience! If you are booking with a friend, let me know when booking, but otherwise I will use my intuition when I pair the rooms.

Many names… Transformational Breathwork, Breathwork Healing, Circular Connected Breathing, 2-part breath most commonly used. It is a very deep and profound experience. Releasing stagnant energies from the physical, mental and emotional bodies. Visiting the conscious and subconscious realms. This is my personal favorite practice ❤️
Lovely!
