This retreat will be in English, or Danish if we have no English speakers participating.
We are closely following the development of the guidelines regarding COVID-19 to make sure you can feel safe on your retreat.
Welcome to the mindfulness manor; a noble house that feels like home.
We are very happy to invite you to a special collaboration between Jesper Westmark and Margreteholm Mindfulness Manor.
With the luxurious, spacious, and nourishing background of the Mindfulness Manor, we hope to give you the chance to embark on a journey inwards, guided by meditation teacher and trauma therapist Jesper Westmark.
The retreat will include guided meditations based on the energy of the group, workshops, and sauna sessions in the beautiful wooden sauna (if the Covid-19 situation allows it) accompanied by cooling plunges in the lake.
In addition to this, Stefan will also be teaching Classic Hatha Yoga with Pranayama (breathing exercises) which besides being a great way to start the day is also helpful preparation for the meditations. The yoga is suited to all bodies and levels of experience.
We will also treat you to a healthy and wholesome diet, based on natural ingredients and products from the farms in the surrounding area.
There will be plenty of time to take long walks in the beautiful wintery nature surrounding the manor and time for contemplation and relaxation. You will get a chance to recharge your batteries and feel the peace that this magical place surrounded by abundant nature has to offer you; connecting to nature and to yourself.
During this retreat, we will be turning our attention to the ego. The ego is like a mask, which reflects our busy minds full of desires and searches for external sources of happiness. Getting familiar with the ego and these desires is the first step to feeling happier and being at ease with who you are.
Through meditation, you learn that everything you have been looking for you have inside you already.
“The place you are looking for is the place from which you are looking”
