yogaSOMATICS Women’s Retreat in Norway
yogaSOMATICS Women´s Retreat at beautiful Søsæter
It is with a welcoming heart and warm hara that I invite you to this special retreat in pristine Norwegian nature in the cooler, golden days of October 2026 at Søsætra Retreat Center.
🍁This is a 4 night retreat just for women who already have a deeper experience in YogaSOMATICS or SOMATIC BODYWORK and wish to deepen their practice in a calm and quiet retreat setting.🍁
***If you have not yet participated a longer yogaSOMATICS or Somatic Bodywork training course, but feel you have a good contact to yogaSOMATICS practices, please write to Ateeka before registering. This way we can decide together if this retreat is a good match for you. Please write ateekayoga@gmail.com

This retreat is an experiential opportunity to rest, relax and go a little deeper towards yourself: body, heart, mind and creativity. Together, we will explore movement, meditative and creative practices for embodiment, grounding, centering and well-being.
We will work with various aspects of EMBODIMENT & CREATIVE EXPRESSION practices including yogaSOMATICS movement, myofascial (bindevev) unwinding, exploring breath, inner energetic exercises, Somatic Bodywork and meditative sitting practice.
ENJOY THE SILENCE
While not a strictly silent retreat, throughout the weekend we will invite the group to enjoy longer periods of silence and reflection.
This retreat is practice-oriented for going deeper towards yourself.
We will practice cultivating a non-judgmental and accepting awareness of thoughts, feelings, senses and body sensations that arise from moment to moment. From this more relaxed and current state of being, we can begin to meet other people in a more open and empathetic way.
This is a week for yourself, movement, rest, inner contact and the opportunity for new insights.
