Breathwork and Yoga Retreat in silence - what to expect?

Breathwork: Unlocking Your Inner Potential

Breathwork is a cornerstone of our retreat, offering a pathway to alter your mental state and shift your energy. Through guided breathwork sessions, you will learn to harness the power of your breath to reduce stress, enhance mental clarity, release emotional blockages and travel the conscious as well as the subconscious realms for a profound experience.

Meditation: Mind full or Mindful?

Meditation is a powerful tool for cultivating mindfulness, presence, quiet the mind and expand the heart. These practices will help you develop a deeper awareness of You - all of You! Allowing you to experience the profound benefits of meditation as you journey within and discover the stillness and the fire that resides at your core.

Yoga Nidra: The Art of Conscious Relaxation

Yoga Nidra, or "yogic sleep," promotes deep relaxation, healing and can take you to transcendental rooms. As you surrender to the bliss of complete relaxation you will enter a state of conscious rest, allowing your body and mind to rejuvenate and restore. This practice helps to release tension, reduce anxiety, and improve sleep quality.

Energy Healing: Experience all of you

Energy healing will help to restore balance and harmony to your energetic system. Through the combination of Reiki & Restorative/yin yoga, you will experience the gentle and profound effects such as clear blockages, replenish depleted energy, and promote overall well-being. Feel your true essence.

Tarot: Guiding Your Inner Wisdom

Tarot is a powerful tool for self-reflection and guidance, tapping into your inner wisdom and intuition. Explore the symbolic language of the cards, uncovering hidden truths and gaining insights into your life's journey. Allow the tarot to illuminate your path, offering clarity and direction as you navigate your internal waters.

Yoga: from Yang to Yin to teahnique

Intentional and creative sessions, a variety of styles, with high vibes, energy and laughter.  Inspired by the elements of the season, our organs, meridians or chakras and the nervous system to land You in You. Flow and sweat or calm and breath? You might not get what you want, but for sure what you need ;)

Nourishing Vegetarian Cuisine

Be inspired by delicious vegetarian meals, thoughtfully prepared to nourish your body and soul. Enjoy a variety of wholesome and inspiring dishes that support your journey of self-discovery and healing. Our cuisine is designed to provide optimal nutrition, enhancing your energy and well-being throughout the retreat.

Astrology: Cosmic Influences

Astrology offers a unique perspective on your life's journey, revealing the cosmic influences that shape your experiences and growth. The moon affects our internal water and we are during this retreat in Scorpio, working up towards an exciting full moon

 Holding Space for Your Journey

We will hold a safe and supportive space for your personal journey, and you can expect to be guided with compassion and care, allowing you to explore your inner waters with confidence and trust. We are here to support your transformation, helping you to navigate the depths of your being and emerge with a renewed sense of clarity and purpose.

    Description goes here

This is an active pause to enhance your physical, emotional, spiritual and mental health

Silence

Sometimes the world is noisy. Not only the external noise from media, traffic, people, social media, to-do lists but also the inner clutter or noise in mind. Our swirling thoughts, the ones stuck in the past, the ones worrying or wanting to control the future.

This is an undisturbed opportunity to turn inward and as the noise stills, you will begin noticing and hearing things differently. The nature, your breath, your heart. It may also come with resistance or bring up uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. But I assure you that you will be carefully held.

Tools for self-reflection, both individually and in group form, will be offered to help you explore your inner world.

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.
