ESSENTIA RETREAT
from the Latin word for “essence” — the essential nature of something; what makes it truly itself
-
Your journey begins with transport from Reykjavík to our location, followed by a small tea gathering where we meet, settle in and create our intention for the days ahead
-
We will work with gentle movement, breathwork, meditation and somatic practices — simple experiences designed to help you slow down, listen to your body and reconnect with your inner world
Nothing to force. Nothing to fix.
-
Step into the Icelandic landscape and let nature become part of the experience
Time outside, fresh air, open landscapes and the freedom to simply be: a sky full of stars and the Northern Lights dancing above us
-
To remember what feels good:
What feels true
What you need
What you love
And who you are when you are not busy being everything for everyone else -
To make your experience as comfortable as possible, please bring:
Personal medication — anything you regularly need during your stay
Comfortable clothes for movement, meditation and relaxing
Outdoor clothes & waterproof shoes for time in nature and Northern Lights watching
A water bottle to keep with you throughout the retreat
Any personal items that help you feel at home — a journal, favourite book, small object, blanket or anything meaningful to you
Special dietary needs or personal foods that you specifically require (All main meals are provided)
-
Transport back to Reykjavík is included, so you can simply enjoy the last moments of the experience without worrying about the journey home

Essentia is a three-day retreat where everything is created to help you slow down and be fully present. Your stay includes accommodation, breakfast, lunch and dinner, transportation from Reykjavík and back, all guided practices, meditation, breathwork, movement, time in nature and our shared tea moments
-
Essentia is a Remembering Retreat — three days dedicated to remembering what we are capable of, what we can create in this life, and how much influence we have over the reality we build around us
Rather than trying to transform you into a “new version” of yourself, we create space to reconnect with what is already there
-
All meals are included and prepared as simple, nourishing homemade- pescetarian food
Breakfast will be light and comforting — things like oatmeal, nuts, fresh fruit and other simple options to start the morning gently
Lunch will be warm and nourishing, with options such as homemade vegetable soups, grains, salads and other wholesome dishes
For dinner, we will have a pescetarian menu. This means there will be no chicken, pork, beef or other meat. We may have fish, eggs and dairy, alongside plenty of plant-based food
If you have allergies, intolerances or specific dietary needs, just let us know beforehand — we want you to feel cared for and comfortable throughout the retreat!
-
Not at all!
You don't need to know how to meditate, have experience with breathwork or be “good” at movement. Everything will be guided gently, and you can always adapt a practice to your own body and comfort
