A Transformational 4-Day Summer Retreat in the Swedish Forest

Embark into the heart of the Swedish wilderness for 4 days summer retreat. With nature, body and soul as our primary guide to conscious awareness we’ll embark on a transformational journey. Rooted in the traditions of nature-based wisdom, healing arts, and embodied practices, we delve into ancient techniques for our modern lives. Through rituals, movement, breathwork, yoga, meditation, sauna and connection with the natural world, we step into our deeper, wilder and silent currents of our being.

Nature’s intense aliveness sets the frame for our immersion into ourselves. The untouched forest and lake around Möllan has a pristine quality that create a space to surrender, restore and revitalize. This retreat invites you to rediscover your inner balance, intuition, and wonder, while nurturing your unique soul gifts and exploring how to share them with the world and your community.

What Awaits You:

Nature Immersion: Nature based practice at the magical lake and wild forest

Transformative Practices: Rituals, meditation and silence to foster self-love

Movement & Healing: Essence breathwork, yoga, movement, embodied exploration & free dance

Sauna & Sound: Sauna rituals, singing & drumming

Wisdom Traditions: Shamanic practices: Nature quest, Medicine Wheel & Drum Journey

Vision Quest: 4-12 hour solo immersion in the forest to connect with your inner calling

Creative Expression: soul poetry and shared circles of reflection

Nourishment: Delicious vegetarian organic meals

Community: A welcoming and supportive environment to belong and grow

Throughout the retreat, you’ll engage with practices designed to deepen your awareness of yourself, others and the voice of nature. Guided by the wisdom of nature, we’ll cultivate a state of being and belonging rooted in reciprocity and connection with all forms of life.

What You’ll Explore:

Deep listening to the rhythms within you and in nature

Expanding your intuition and imagination to access deeper truths

Rediscovering silence, gratitude, inner courage & love

Moving with intention to align with the intelligence of nature

This experience offers a chance to realign your inner compass, connect with the wisdom traditions and draw from the restorative power of nature. Guided by the interplay of body, soul, and the natural world, we embark on a journey of transformation—one that reminds us of the healing connection between people and the land.

Together, we’ll celebrate our human heritage as creative beings, supported by nature and a heart-centered community. This retreat is a sacred space for renewal, courage, and love—an experience to inspire you long after you return to your daily life.

All are welcome to join us on this journey of rediscovery and connection.

Anne Mette Buch Bertelsen
www.balanced.dk

As a founder of Balanced Retreat, I’m dedicated to helping people find a more meaningful way to connect to nature, body and soul. My inspiration is nature based traditions and healing arts across cultures and time offering us practices to re-align our inner compass, conscious exploration and unfold our soul full creative expression. The last 10 years my path lead me to Esalen Institute in California, teachers in shamanism as Anette Høst & Sandra Ingermann. 10 years meditation with Jesper Westmark, 20 years of modern dance, body work and yoga in various forms. 15 years of teaching experience & 10 years of facilitating retreats and workshops. The common thread is also experience and education within HR (Cand. Soc. HRM). A turning point in life in 2012 became a new starting point - therefore HR transformed into Human Retreat.
