Nytårsretreat på Øster Løkke

New Year's retreat at Øster Løkke

with Hanneli Ågotsdatter og Peter Hoeg

28 December 2026 - 2 January 2027

Årsskiftet rummer særlige muligheder:
Dagene går fra mørket mod lyset. Og for mange er nytåret et tidspunkt hvor man gør status over året der gik. I naturen omkring Øster Løkke har disse muligheder særlige betingelser.

Dem, mulighederne og betingelserne, vil vi inddrage i retreatet:

Ved at markere selve nytårsaften mere rituelt og fordybet end det ofte sker – men uden at miste det glædesfyldte og festlige aspekt.
Ved at arbejde med forskellige måder hvorpå man kan skaffe sig overblik over sin tilværelse og dens ressourcer. Og ved, i det omfang vejret på denne tid af året tillader det at inddrage omgivelserne.

Der vil være en fast daglig rytme:
Et langt formiddagsstræk med yoga, meditation, kropsskanning og en skrivemeditation.
Et eftermiddagsstræk med meditation, dans og undersøgelser af hvordan vi kan bruge kreativiteten i bearbejdelsen af året der er gået. Og til at se frem mod det kommende.

Der vil i løbet af retreatet være flere sammenhængende dage med stilhed.

Vi vil bede ansøgere vi ikke tidligere har mødt, om at de medsender et par linjer om deres erfaringer med meditation, yoga og lignende.

Teacher changes due to force majeure

In the event of force majeure, including illness, we reserve the right to replace the originally announced trainer with another qualified trainer from the Kontemplation team. This will be done to ensure that the course or retreat can be carried out as planned. Participants will be informed of the changes as soon as possible and the training will be held according to the original course descriptions and content.

Discount schemes
Discounts are available for students, the unemployed and early retirees on MBSR courses, immersion days and workshops. See prices under the individual course descriptions.
We do not have a specific discount scheme on retreats. Instead, we strive to keep the price of accommodation in a tent and double room so low that this becomes a more economical alternative.

COURSE LOCATION

The Øster Løkke course farm is located directly on the North Sea, and the nature surrounding the beautiful farm is magnificent. When the weather permits, we hold part of the retreat's mindfulness training outdoors.
