Spring Awakening
Nyköping, 11-13 April 2025
The Retreat
Welcome for an expansive spring retreat — to reawaken the body and rekindle the inner fire. After a long dormant winter it’s time to gather in community, shift outwards, get the fire going and the energy flowing. Spring is a time for growth and new beginnings — to dream big and take action.
Expect a nourishing weekend of daily yoga, breathwork and meditation, with plenty of time for sauna (with a view!), cold plunging, forest walks, napping, reading, hanging out with the sheep and making new friends. Our private chef will prepare delicious meals and homemade fika; inspired by the season, all organic and vegetarian, and with a lot of the produce coming directly from the farm.
Book your spotThe Space
The retreat will take place at Lindeborgs Eco Retreat — a beautiful eco farm surrounded by forest and lake, situated outside of Nyköping, 120 km from Stockholm. With innovative agriculture and vegetable gardens, beekeeping, flower meadows, biochar production and a biological water treatment system, the owners Carl and Julia work to create a vibrant and healthy system for life in all its forms. It’s a place for unwinding in a peaceful, beautiful and sustainable environment.
Your Host
Madeleine, aka Majsan, is a yoga teacher and life coach from Stockholm. Her signature yoga Vinyasa classes are dynamic and playful, and draw influences from various yoga styles such as Jivamukti and Katonah, often with a touch of breathwork and meditation. She believes her purpose in this life is to spread joy and guide people to a connected and heartfelt experience — on and off the mat. The components for a typical Majsan retreat include yoga, nature, good food, sauna, cold dips and introspection. Her wish is for the participants to leave the retreat not only feeling grounded and filled with joy — but also with deeper clarity and new insights.
“A truly magical retreat nestled in the Swedish countryside. I felt so taken care of and held, with every need satisfied for a weekend of autumnal reflection and spiritual rejuvenation. Sauna, cold plunge, forest walks, and the best farm to table meals you could dream of. [...]”

“This was my first yoga retreat and WOW what a wonderful experience. Majsan made me feel so welcome from the moment I arrived. [...] I have done yoga for many years and Majsan is one of the best yoga teachers I have ever encountered. Her presence combined with spiritual and healing knowledge make that little extra glimmer to the morning, evening and afternoon yoga we got to experience [...] So grateful for the people I met and for this weekend, made my life change in a new direction.”
