Breath of Autumn: a Restorative Retreat
With Paulina Copello. A nourishing autumn retreat for those who feel the need to slow down, release stress, and reconnect with themselves on a deeper level.
Building on last year’s fully booked retreat, this edition offers a deeper, body-based approach. For those returning, it is an opportunity to revisit the experience from a new place — and for new participants, a gentle and accessible entry into this work.
Throughout the retreat, we will move through a simple process of landing, sensing and expressing — supporting the body to settle, reconnect and integrate.
Alongside the experience, the retreat also offers simple and practical tools to support nervous system regulation, self-awareness, and everyday wellbeing. For those interested, it can also be approached as a learning experience, with the possibility to receive a certificate of completion upon request.
Set in the quiet and beautiful surroundings of Nøsen, this retreat offers a space to step away from daily demands, rest deeply, and reconnect with yourself in a meaningful way. The intention is not only to relax, but to leave with practical tools and a felt sense of calm that you can bring into everyday life.
This retreat is suitable for all levels and requires no previous experience.
Guided journaling & self-care menu
Optional practices such as guided journaling and creating your own self-care menu will be offered to support reflection and integration.
Group connection
The retreat also offers space for meaningful group connection, allowing shared experience in a supportive and grounded environment.

Deep Rest: Restorative Yoga, Story & Yoga Nidra
