INNER LANDSCAPES, A Journey Into Awareness / 7 - 10 May 2026
A spring retreat on the island of Rügen.
YOGA • slow living • Ayurveda • KIRTAN • cacao ceremony
Spring is a time of blossoming — not about pushing ahead, but about opening at a natural pace. It’s a season to let go of what no longer serves, to clear space inside and out, and to care for your energy with steadiness. This retreat is designed as a place for you to slow down and reconnect through yoga, Ayurvedic wisdom, and nourishing practices that support your whole self.
This retreat offers a balanced mix of energising yoga and slow, meditative practices. Each session is aligned with the energy of spring — strengthening your body, supporting your nervous system, calming the mind, and helping you gently return to balance from within.
You are invited to stretch out and discover yourself beyond your comfort zone, roles and patterns. The daily practices that are shared within these days are designed to quieten your inner landscapes and help you stay with the experiences rather than always rushing and striving to achieve.
Between classes, you’ll have time to explore the beauty of Rügen Island, rest deeply, connect with others, or simply enjoy doing nothing.
Ayurveda workshop wiTH Lisa ÅKESSON
Join Lisa, our private chef and Ayurvedic practitioner, as she brings her deep knowledge of seasonal nourishment to every part of this experience — from balancing meals to practical guidance for living in harmony with nature’s rhythms.
We often define ourselves by our imbalances — PMS, stress, digestive issues, skin concerns — but who are you beyond that? This workshop invites you to cultivate awareness of your cycle (all genders welcome), your inner balance, and how you nourish yourself through food, experiences, thoughts, and emotions.
You’ll have the opportunity for a pulse reading with Lisa to better understand your Dosha and the imbalances your body may be signaling. Learn to care for yourself lovingly, staying connected to your intuition and your body’s messages.

our sacred retreat home
Üselitz Manor, a rebuilt and restored house from the 16th century, is situated in the village of Poseritz in the south of the island of Rügen, close to the Hanseatic town of Stralsund. The house is surrounded by park-like grounds, where you can find fruit trees, some more than one hundred years old, which continue to bear apples, pears, plums, nuts and other fruits. The view from the house and park benefits on all sides from its direct waterside situation. The water surrounding Üselitz Manor not only puts on spectacular displays of light and colour at all times of the year; it has also become a refuge for all kinds of species of birds, including cranes, herons, cormorants, grey geese and ducks.
