Daily schedule

🌅 06:00 – Sunrise Qi Gong - Flow with the Rhythms of Nature

We begin our day with the gentle circular movements of Shaolin Qi Gong traditional practice, harmonizing energy, body and mind with the rising sun. This practice cultivates inner balance, awakens vitality and reconnects you with nature's flow- grounding your energy, restoring your natural state of being and setting a calm, centered tone for the day ahead. 

🥣 07:30 – Nourishing Breakfast

Together, we prepare a healthy and wholesome breakfast, enjoying the fresh air and the breathtaking surroundings.

🌿 08:30 – Personal Time

After breakfast, take a moment for yourself—relax by the lake, journal, or simply soak in the peacefulness of the wilderness.

🚣‍♂️ 10:00 – Adventure & Reflection

Each day brings a new outdoor experience: canoeing on the serene lake, hiking through deep forests, fishing, or fire-making. As we engage in these activities, we also take time for reflection exercises and enjoy moments of laughter and connection.

🔥 17:00 – Cooking & Sharing

Returning to our retreat space in the afternoon, we cook a delicious meal together over an open fire, sharing stories and experiences from the day.

🌙 19:30 – Evening Zen & Buddhist Meditation - Rest in Presence 

We end our day with a peaceful Zen and Buddhist Meditation, cultivating stillness, awareness and a deep sense of presence. Through mindful breathing and gentle focus, this practice helps to quiet the mind, release the day's weight and reconnect with your true nature- inviting a restful and harmonious night. 

 

🛶 Closing the Week with a 2-Day Canoe Expedition
To conclude our retreat, we embark on a two-day canoe expedition, paddling upstream to a big lake where we will spend the night in nature. This is your opportunity to embrace solitude with an overnight stay on a secluded island or a quiet lakeside spot—or, if you prefer, to share the experience with the group. This journey offers a profound way to deepen your connection with nature, reflect on the week’s experiences, and fully immerse yourself in the wild.

About us

Ever since our psychology studies, we have been fascinated by the primitive human instincts within us all. In 2012, our canoe trip through Sweden’s wilderness sparked a lifelong passion for its adventure and tranquility. Now, we’re on a mission to help others reconnect with their primitive self!
