A community journey of rest and renewal

About Wintering

From January 19th to 24th, we'll cozy up on the island of Vrångö in Gothenburg’s southern archipelago to experience, feel, nourish, and rest together as a wintering community. 

​

We'll integrate the themes of rest, reflection, and acceptance of life cycles while honoring Scandinavian winter traditions and the experience of slowing down and reconnecting with ourselves.

​

The power and beauty of the Swedish winter calls you in. The sun rises late in the morning over the ocean, and we will spend those early hours in silence, slowly and silently greeting the day as she rises to meet us.

 

The nights are long and cold this time of year, with about 19 hours of darkness between sunset and sunrise. We'll sauna, meditate, and spend quiet time together, lighting candles and snuggling up in fleece blankets as we share the time and space in the Scandinavian winter way.

Lodging

We are hosting the Wintering Retreat at Kajkanten in Vrångö Harbor, which markets itself as “more than a hostel and less than a hotel.”

 

Kajkanten offers traditional Swedish sea cabins that are fully winterized for maximum comfort. 

While the themes center around silence, stillness, and relaxation, we will also offer some planned activities:

​

Daily floating sauna & wood-fired hot tub sessions

Fire circles

Cold water plunges

Gentle nature walks

Candlelit dinners

Forest bathin

Somatic breathwork

Creativity workshop (held at Liz & Henrik's house on Styrsö)

Guided meditation
