Roots Of The Earth

A WINTER PORTAL

RETREAT: 29 - 31 JANUARY 2027

SWEDEN - SKÅNE

ROOTS OF THE EARTH A Winter Portal A journey from noise into stillness. From the surface into the roots. From old patterns into new space. From fear into presence. From darkness toward your inner light.

This retreat invites you to explore the winter within you , the quiet inner landscape we often avoid by keeping ourselves busy.

We slow down enough to meet what is there. The fears. The old stories. The patterns that keep repeating. The identities and masks we have learned to wear. The things we continue carrying even though somewhere inside we already know it is time to put them down. Rather than escaping the darkness, we enter it consciously. Because sometimes we need darkness to see our own light.

Roots of the Earth – A Winter Portal

A ceremonial journey into the darkness and winter, the ancient wisdom of the earth, and the depth within.

Winter asks something different of us, while much of the world tells us to keep moving, producing and becoming.

Winter speaks another language, a language that speaks into our energetic field and in our body, which responds to the changes in the cycle of the year. It asks us to slow down, to become still, to conserve our energy.

Through ancestral work, with the land, the plants, and the worlds inbetween. We will work with plant medicin, Hapé, Mapacho, Mugworth as our masterplants, and invite their teaching and spirit in, in our deep Ceremonial space.

Nature as a mirror.

We will learn how to walk between world, trough old practises, we will get out there in the raw nature, we will meet the stillness, the dark winter, the wispering and the wisdom.

To turn inward and to listen, listen to the wispering there is in between worlds, in between feelings, in between the body who speaks all the time.

In nature, winter is not an ending. Beneath the frozen ground, roots are still alive. Seeds rest in the darkness. Energy withdraws from the surface and returns to what is essential.

A weekend devoted to deep inner exploration, grounding, weaving, moving, clearing and transformation.

Creating space to release what you no longer need and reconnect with the strength, clarity and inner light that remain beneath the surface.

Shedding just as nature releases what it no longer needs, we begin by exploring what we are ready to let go of. Old emotional weight. Outdated versions of ourselves, expectations, limiting beliefs. Habits and patterns that once protected us but may now be holding us back. We begin to decode these old patterns, not simply trying to remove them, but becoming curious about where they came from, what purpose they once served and whether they still belong in the life we are creating. As the layers begin to loosen, the masks can begin to fall. And beneath them, something more authentic has room to emerge. Creating inner space modern life rarely leaves us empty. Our minds are constantly filled with information, decisions, responsibilities, expectations and stimulation. Over time, this creates inner noise.

Personal exploration, spiritual growth and expansion. Not through becoming more. But through removing what stands between you and what is already within you.

Part of this journey is learning how to sit with darkness without immediately needing to escape it, to understand your own cycles. To recognize when you need movement and when you need rest. To meet fear without allowing it to determine your direction. And to discover the inner resources that remain available even during the darker seasons of life. Because the goal is not to eliminate darkness, It is to discover that you can carry light within it.

Come as you are. Bring what you are carrying. Enter the winter. Release what has become too heavy. Return to your roots. And remember the light that was there all along.


For many of us, the winter inside can be challenging.

The darkness feels heavier. Energy changes. We may feel tired, restless or disconnected.

Without the constant movement and stimulation of the brighter seasons, things we have avoided can become more visible.

But what if we stopped fighting winter?

What if darkness could become a teacher?

The Journey.

What Awaits You.

A journey into the ancient wisdom of the earth, the unseen worlds and the depths of our own being.

Through deep ceremonial practices, ancestral wisdom, somatic exploration and energetic healing, we enter the sacred space of winter.

During our time together, we will explore:

  • Sacred plant ceremonies with Hapé, Mapacho and Mugwort.

  • Kundalini & Life Force Activation, Deep trance and Energetic healing, Shamanic drumming and Ancestral practices.

  • Shadow work and Inner exploration, Somatic movement, Shaking and Breathwork.

  • Silent walks through the darkness of the Swedish forest.

  • Connection with the land, the elements and the unseen rituals of grounding, clearing, release and integration. We will move between stillness and movement, darkness and awareness, the physical body and the subtle energetic realms. Not to force transformation, but to create space for what is ready to be seen, felt and transformed.

Reconnect with your body and mind as you escape the noise of everyday life.

We do not enter the darkness to conquer it. We enter to remember that darkness, too, is part of life. A place of rest, of roots, of mystery, of endings and beginnings. A place where something within us is waiting to be heard.

The Land - Held by Nature.

Deep within the Swedish countryside, surrounded by ancient forests, open land and a vast lake, we gather in a place where the rhythms of nature are still deeply felt.

Here, away from the noise and demands of everyday life, the land becomes part of our ceremonial space.

The bare trees, the cold winter air, the frozen earth and the deep silence invite us to listen differently.

Throughout the retreat, we will work with nature as both teacher and mirror , exploring the connection between the landscape around us and the landscape within.

The outer nature reflecting our inner nature.

As the earth withdraws into winter, we too are invited to descend beneath the surface, into the roots, into the darkness, into the wisdom that lives in stillness.


Accomondation & Nourishment.

During our retreat, we will stay together in a beautiful countryside farmhouse, nestled within the Swedish landscape.

Accommodation is simple and shared, creating a warm and communal atmosphere where we live together under one roof throughout the retreat.

With the forest just outside the door and the lake nearby, Sjögården gives us the perfect setting to slow down, step away from everyday life and reconnect with nature.

A peaceful place for simplicity, connection and being close to the earth.

An Invitation to return to your roots, and meet the silence and darkness within.

There is a wisdom in winter that cannot be rushed.

A wisdom found beneath the surface, in the silence between breaths, in the roots that remain alive beneath the frozen earth.

Roots of the Earth is an invitation to step away from the constant movement of the outside world and enter a deeper relationship with yourself, the land and the ancient wisdom that lives within us.

Come as you are.

Let the winter hold you.

Let the earth remind you.

Let the darkness become a place of listening.
