Yoga, Meditation and Self-Care: a New Year’s Retreat

Dec 29, 2022 – Jan 1, 2023

Rørvig, Denmark

Step into 2023 with a vibrant body and a peaceful mind.

Daily yoga, gentle and dynamic, guided meditation, connection with nature, supportive practices… and time to just “be.”

You are invited to a special 4-day/3 nights retreat in the quiet and resourcing natural scenery of “Nakke Hage,” just 1h15 min from Copenhagen.

The intention behind this retreat is to support you to create a caring space for yourself and enter 2023 feeling balanced, reset, and inspired.

Your facilitators, Pernille and Cédric, experienced yogis and retreat facilitators, are dedicated to create a safe, sacred space for well-being and healing. You can expect a relaxed and intimate atmosphere with room for depth and rest.

 

Cédric will be your yoga teacher. He will guide delicious yoga sessions with his signature-style of heart-infused themes and precision tools for empowering body awareness and alignment. Each class will make your body feel good and alive while helping your mind and heart feel nurtured and soothed.

Pernille will facilitate reflections and rituals to help you review and integrate the past year and open yourself to receive the new year with clarity and confidence. Drawing from ancient wisdom traditions, nature, and poetry, she will offer inspiration for our life, embodiment, and spiritual path. Pernille will also guide short meditation and writing sessions to help you connect to the soulful depth and wisdom of your own inner world.

Every level of yoga is welcome. Each class will accommodate both the experienced and the beginner yogi.

 

The venue

“Kirsebærgården” is an old, traditional Danish farm, located on the Nakke peninsula (a protected nature reserve Northwest of Copenhagen). The retreat buildings were completely renovated a few years ago with all organic, high-quality material and decorated for a harmonious, minimalistic, and comfortable interior. The yoga room is beautiful and spacious, with high ceilings, heated floor, and big windows overlooking the surrounding nature. 

More about Cédric, PhD and E-500 CYT

In his yoga and meditation classes, Cédric’s intention is to help you find (or find again) a good and healthy posture, build strength and flexibility in your body, along with helping you slow down and soothe your nervous system in a deep way. His work with clients and students is informed by more than a decade of practice, teaching and studies in yoga techniques, anatomy, free movement, eastern philosophy, meditation/mindfulness, and somatic (body-oriented) psychotherapy. Cédric has an earlier career as a social science researcher, which can be felt in his natural curiosity and his capacity to bring a larger perspective to every class and session he offers.
