INTRODUCTION

Arctic Wellness Retreat combines the revitalizing effects of yoga and experiencing the untouched nature of Lapland.

The daily program varies by the season and it might change due to weather conditions.

arctic wellness RETREAT PROGRAM


WINTER 5 D 18 JAn - 22 JAN

  • Four gentle yoga & relax -sessions

  • Meeting with the reindeer

  • Snowshoe walking excursion with forest bathing theme

  • Finnish sauna experience & opportunity to dip into icy river water

  • Arctic night sky experience to admire the night sky and hopefully see auroras


The magical twilight season of Lapland (kaamos) has just ended when our Arctic Wellness Retreat begins. The sun hardly rises up to the horizon, but for some hours the scenery is still coloured with the sunrise and sunset colors. The blue moment captures the world for a moment. Other times the snow reflects moonlight and the probability for aurora borealis is high. It's the perfect time to listen to your inner self.

The daily program is designed to support your relaxation and wellbeing. Here you don’t need to hurry or worry or have special skills to join in. The programme includes a beautiful combination of gentle yoga practices (yin, hatha, restorative and yoga nidra) and experiences out in the arctic nature. Our close location to nature makes your nervous system naturally calm down. Breathing the cleanest air in the world nourishes the mind and body. With the intention of making the experience personal and safe, the retreat is held in a small group of 4-8 persons.

You will have your own time daily to spend with whatever makes you feel good! If you wish to join the activities of other providers in the Saariselkä area, or to take a nap, or do your meditation. We also rent cross-country skis, snowshoes and electric fatbikes.

“ I was very happy with my stay at Arctic Sky Resort. Minna was a gentle yoga guide taking time to show everything properly. It was easy to follow her instructions even my eyes closed. And it was so great to learn about the herbs! Will go back. “

You will receive the full detailed program after booking.
