Where we stay
MAGIC OF SWEDISH LAPLAND
Nestled in the silent forests of Northern Sweden, far from city lights and distraction, this is a place for true stillness.
Snow-covered trees, frozen lakes, and endless starry skies set the stage for reflection and renewal. By day, we practice and explore.
“By night, we look up and witness the Aurora dance.
In the Arctic winter, darkness teaches.
Stillness heals.
Light rewards”

TESTIMONIALS
Wonderful experience.
Nadine’s yoga retreat is
so well done. She’s
passionate about
Bikram Yoga, food was
great, lovely
community of
attendees, lots of space
in the calendar for
personal time, great
location. It was my first
time doing Bikram and
I really enjoyed it (as I
got over the initial
learning curve.) I highly
recommend Nadine’s
yoga retreat for first
timers or experienced.

Nadine teaches with
passion and
empowerment! She has
a beautiful and calming
energy which motivates
you! I had the chance to
join one of her 7days
retreat in Portugal, it
was a blessing I am so
grateful for. I left feeling
refreshed and renewed!
If you have the
opportunity, don’t
hesitate! Highly
recommend!

FAQ
Will we see the Northern Lights?
The end of November and early December is peak aurora season in
Swedish Lapland, with long dark nights and zero light pollution offering
excellent chances. That said, the Northern Lights are a natural
phenomenon and can never be guaranteed. What I can promise is a
powerful Arctic reset — daily Bikram, snow-covered landscapes, sauna
rituals, deep connection, and the magic of Nordic winter. The lights
are a bonus. The transformation is not. But we all have it on our bucket
list, so we will manifest them.
What airport do I fly into?
The closest airport is Luleå (LLA) in northern Sweden. From there, the
lodge is approximately 1 hour by car. Transfer options and detailed
travel guidance will be shared after booking, and I’m happy to assist
with flight planning
What if the minimum group size is not reached?
This retreat requires a minimum number of 8 participants to run. If the
minimum is not reached, you will receive a full refund of your retreat
payment or the option to transfer to a future retreat. But so far, I hosted
25 retreats and never cancelled one, so we manifest this is happening.
Temperature expectations?
Late November to early December in Swedish Lapland is true Arctic
winter. Daytime: approximately -1°C to -5°C. Nighttime: approximately
-5°C to -10°C. Snow-covered landscapes and short daylight hours.
Perfect conditions for aurora hunting — and for experiencing the
contrast between Arctic cold and Bikram heat.
Is Bikram suitable for beginners?
Yes. This retreat is open to both beginners and experienced
practitioners. Each class is guided with clear instruction, and you are
always encouraged to listen to your body. The Arctic setting may be
wild — but the yoga space is safe, supportive, and accessible.
