Retreat in southern Zweden
A retreat especially for women, guided by the wisdom of an ancient story
"In the negotiation for a comfortable life within a society that heavily emphasizes masculine (yang) values, we as women often sacrifice our true calling and authenticity. We trade them for the illusion of security and the longing for acceptance.
This is the moment when we symbolically become "handless," which often manifests as energy loss, being overworked or being burned-out
Do you recognize this?"
Time to find yourself again...
In the magical setting of southern Sweden, I guide you on an inward journey. Together we unravel patterns and create space for choices that bring you on your way back to your feminine power.
Our guide on this journey is an ancient fairytale that resonates deeply in the soul of the modern woman: 'The Handless Maiden'.
In this sense, you can see this retreat an initiation. Through the powerful imagery and archetypes of this story, you will uncover your own inner map—a path leading you back to your untamed, wild nature. From this inner ground, routes will open up to consciously shape your own life.
Explore new ground..
