NOURISHED. We choose to be here during this deeply transformational time on earth, some days it might feel like a blissful gift and sometimes like a very bad and uninformed choice made by our soul. Even though we might have done years of profound healing and self-discovery, it is easy to get caught up in the collective turbulence and to lose balance in the midst of solar storms and constantly shifting energies. It is getting abundantly clear that life is not a straight line of constant expansion or perfection to be reach, life is an experience. What it all comes back to is what we make of each day, how we take care of ourselves to create the best of circumstances to thrive and experience life to the fullest, alongside a world in deep transformation and turmoil. There is something so sacred in the dedication to nourish ourselves, to take good care of our body, nourish our soul through allowing ourselves to feel, to be vulnerable and to receive, to nourish our being with new experiences and to embrace nature. Summer is said to be the most intense period of the yearly cycle, the experimental part and often when we live to the fullest, which also might require the most energy and effort. During the retreat we will prepare for stepping into the Summer and end the retreat by a morning ceremony for the Summer Solstice.

The otherworldly island of Gotland will support us on this Nourished Retreat. There is something soothing yet wild in the austere scenery of this island, with its limestone buildings, granite cliffs, sculptural sea stacks ‘raukar’ and sandy beaches. Gotland holds a rich ancestry reaching far outside the borders of Sweden. The farm we will be staying at, with its limestone barn, is located on Faludden on Gotland's southeast coast. A cape with scenic surroundings, sandy beaches, and beautiful walking paths. This is a space from where we can slow down, connect with the lands and the elements, and appreciate the natural environment and the variety and scenic of seasons. The sea is only a few minutes away and the area is a bird sanctuary since it’s the richest bird area on Gotland.
