*press pause*
women's reset & retreat
women have been taught to
be fierce - to slay - to be wild
in order to claim her space in the world
but maybe. just maybe.
the most empowered woman of them all
is the rested woman holding a full cup
Overview
Will it be for me?
This retreat is for you if you're curious of what else is out there. Next to the rules the world set out for you. Next to the daily rise&grind. The chores (laundry ughhh). It's for you. Because you are made for more.
More togetherness. More PLAY (remember play? Yea more of that!). More glitter. More dance. More confidence. More trust. More safety. More freedom. More. But more of the good stuff. The deep breaths. The love. And more than anything this retreat is for you if you're tired and in need of pressing pause.
Of taking rest. Of getting back in touch with your magical self.
The retreat is open for women of all practice-levels, bodytypes, ages and life experiences!
Last year we had women at age 23 to 55 - so there's definitely space for you.

Each day will include elements of creativity, rest, movement and time spent in nature but please be mindful that no matter the planned schedule:
This is your free-time and you can spend it 100% how you prefer to. The offers are mere invitations and nothing else.
CREATIVITY
REST
the practice
The morning-practices will look different everyday. Sometimes yoga, sometimes chill stretching, sometimes dancing and play. The physical practice is the space where we invite the body to speak and give the mind a break.
Every practice will be followed by meditation and pranayama for a full circle experience. We are not "just" our physical bodies. There's also the energetic body as well as the emotional body. We will meet every layer of our Being in these practices.
For the workshops we will spend time with Yoga-philosophy but also movement, writing, opportunities to share with each other and learn SelfCare-practices.
The main goal for each of these sessions are that you get to explore multiple parts of the amazing You that you are, and the different ways to meet her.
Don't underestimate yourself if you are moving gently.
Detailed example of the days (minus surprises) below.
MOVEMENT
NATURE
The mission
This is a weekend for women who wants to get a little bit back to themselves. We've been taught to put our to-do lists firsts, which is not very sustainable - unless your health, your nervous system and whatever brings you JOY is also included on that list.
This retreat, as well as other workshops for women, goes under the name of "made for more" - just to clarify that we are made for more than those to-do lists. More than "success" financially. More than "good grades". More than "looking beautiful". Much more.
This weekend will invite you to dive into all of your senses surrounded by the beautiful nature of Samsø. More Relaxation. More deep breaths. More reflecting on what *you* like. You'll experience support and spaciousness throughout the whole process of diving into the multitudes it is to move through the human experience right now.
In our culture we're being trained in looking towards each other before turning our gaze inwards. It makes the, already difficult thing, og knowing our own needs very difficult. Therefore this weekend is built up around different daily themes that all includes elements of creativity, rest, nature & movement.
The program is put together in order to create the ultimate selfcare, connect to your nervous system as well as to the collective. We will spend time on - just like Yoga teaches us to - to create Union. Not just between each other but also between our own bodies, minds & spirits. It will be in an knowledgable, yet lighthearted matter. There will be space for you, no matter how much or how little, you like to participate in the different activities. This is your time first and foremost <3
Maybe you've been giving so much of yourself away, that you've lost a sense of self. Maybe you're looking for inspiration or for something to look forward to in the cold, European winter. Or maybe you're just in need of the ultimate selfcare-rest&retreat getaway with your mom, sister or girlfriend. No matter what brings you in, or how you feel in life as you're reading this, you'll be so welcome on this retreat.

the space
On a small island, in a small country, only a short ferry-ride away from either Hou or Kalundborg a magical place has its roots. Hidden away between fields and trees lies Mellem-rummet.
"The space in between."
Which is exactly what it is. That peaceful moment between the thoughts. That restful pause after the exhale and right before the inhale. This is where we shall stay. Resting in simple surroundings and aesthetics to allow full focus on the Journey itself.
The shala is as beautiful as it gets and has this sanctuary-feel to it. Her light yet strong frame will create the perfect set up for each practice and gathering. Darkness tends to be overwhelming in February but in this this space, we will get to see our inner flame light it all up.
Mellem-rummet is only a short walk from the ocean, as well as a hidden beach, where we will frolic and feel for ourselves what this life is really about.
the food
Of course we will also be taking the best care possible of our physical vessel. Whenever our bodies, as well as minds, are working hard, we need to feed it accordingly. How we eat and drink is such a nurturing way of respecting the whole Self that we are.
For this retreat you will get 3 meals/day - all vegan/vegetarian from locally sourced produce around Samsø. Just beautiful! Throughout the entire day there will also be access to tea, coffee ( I see you coffee-drinkers!), fruit and light snacks.

Phew. What a time to be alive. We think we figure it all out and then boom; mama Earth flips it all upside down once again. Are you also exhausted?
Everything that has happened since March 2020 has been a rollercoaster to say the least. For me - as well as for you I can imagine. Life. You know?
Many retreats (and lovely things in general!) have been cancelled/rescheduled and people’s travel plans repeatedly thrown out the window. Nonetheless we are finding our way back and are ready to start 2022 in the right way for us.
Get away for four days and three nights in the magical island that is Samsø, Denmark. We are blessed to be hosted by Mellemrummet (The Space In Between) - the place on everybody’s lips in Denmark when it comes to retreats!
We will get to indulge in incredible locally sourced food. Practice morning and evenings in their stunning Yoga-shala and best of all relax, laugh, learn new and get to know each other surrounded by a beautiful environment, women's only vibes and my favourite of all - the ocean!
I'm well aware that not every day can be all unicorns, glitter and rainbows
but I'm a firm believer that for at least one moment every day
you deserve that the weight of the world
feels lighter on your shoulders
now
imagine four days of that.
Please come join me when we press pause and join the reset & retreat-heaven with likeminded humans for a perfect reset after the most intense time ever. I look forward to hold space for you no matter how you show up <3 x Nanna
