SLOWING DOWN… Yoga & Meditation Retreat with Lena Järpsten

Dates: 4-6th December, 2020

Retreat means to withdraw. It means giving space for reflection and the opportunity to coming closer to yourself. The pace of society and its demands are out of tune with nature, with our bodies and with our minds. This weekend we let ourselves come to rest with the support of the season and to connect with something deeper within.
