Rest & Reflect


  • Gullnäsgården 1 GULLNÄSGÅRDEN Strömstad, Västra Götalands län, 452 96 Sweden (map)

Join us for a relaxing retreat with meditations, discussions, nice vegetarian meals and walk in the beautiful area of Strömstad.

A rest and reflect retreat gives us a wonderful opportunity to stop, let go of it all and recover vital energy.It is also a time to reflect upon our life, to consider what is important for us and if needed open our heart to beneficial changes.

Gullnäsgården is wonderful place by the sea on Tjärnö, in northern Bohuslän near Strömstad, next to the Kosterhavet Marine National Park. 

Life can become very hectic and before we know it we are carried along by the busyness, forgetting how important it is for our well being to take some real time out.

This meditation retreat offers an opportunity to take a step back from the business of everyday life in order to rest and reflect in a natural and peaceful environment.

There will be four meditation sessions a day and enough time for relaxation,walks and exploring the wonderful nature around Gullnåsgarden.

After this retreat you will feel re-energized and you will be ready to (re)-start loving yourself and others and improve your experience of a happy daily life.
