RÖRBÄCK FOREST RETREAT, HALLAND

Master Yoga Sweden Retreat
Nature's SPACE
DANIELLA WITTE & PETRA NILSSON
A clearing opens up in the enchanted forest. Here you are greeted by a Halland farm with new additions interacting with older buildings and rooms. The interior rooms are organized in relation to the exterior. Here, the presence of the forest is central, and the rooms are intertwined with the whole. The forest and the trees are the materials of the place. The houses appear to be sculpted in wood and the interior rooms hollowed out and carved, the details kneaded, all based on an original idea of place and people.
In this fantastic environment, we let nature move into your room, both spiritually and literally.
Daniella Witte, interior designer and stylist, offers an interior design course where you will find inspiration and tools to create your most beautiful room using the energies of nature.
Petra Nilsson, yoga teacher and forest bathing instructor, guides you into the healthy embrace of the forest and offers forest bathing "Shinrin Yoku," Nature Yoga, and Yoga Nidra.
We offer you a relaxing stay where your soul can find peace and your thoughts can find space: surrounded by meadows, forests, and lakes.

About Rörbäck Forest Retreat
Rörbäck Forest Retreat is a unique architect-designed farm with attention to every detail. A place to relax with all your senses. Petra Gipp Studio, one of Sweden's most interesting and contemporary architectural firms, has succeeded with great sensitivity to the location! The new houses are built entirely of Swedish wood, left untreated so that over time they will patinate and age beautifully.
Rörbäck was built with a love for all things beautiful. With its beautiful natural surroundings, architecture, and lovely interior design, it has succeeded in creating a breathing space in a location that offers the best of both worlds. In addition, there is a heated pool (24 degrees Celsius), a bathing pool in the stream, and a sauna for relaxation.
Our accommodation
The farmhouse is the 32-meter-long main building and accommodates eight beds in three bedrooms. All bedrooms have beautiful views of the forest and garden, and the double beds can be separated if desired.
There are two spacious bathrooms and a large kitchen with a fireplace. The hall leads to the large greenhouse with a 6-meter-high ceiling.
The barn functions as a separate house and has a sleeping loft with four beds, its own fireplace, and a view of the meadows.
We live like a small, sweet Sangha, and freshly ironed grandmother's sheets await us!
Retreat chef
The guest chef is Mattias Svensson, a well-known restaurant and chef personality in Varberg. Mattias delivers "authentic food" with a focus on local, locally produced, and high-quality ingredients, creating an experience for both the taste buds and the senses.
Program
Friday, June 2
3 p.m. Check-in & Welcome!
3:30–5:00 p.m. Forest bathing with Petra Nilsson
We start the retreat weekend with a beneficial forest bathing session, "Shinrin Yoku," where we leave the week and everyday life behind us. We wind down and encounter the forest and the power of nature with all five senses. A wonderful practice of being in the here and now, grounding ourselves in nature and preparing for the weekend's interior design course.
6:00–7:00 p.m. Interior design course inspired by forests and nature with Daniella Witte.
Let Daniella inspire you with her approach to interior design, which incorporates the energies of nature into the creation of environments, still lifes, and spatiality. Daniella will show us a range of examples from her work to serve as inspiration.
We conclude by going out into nature. You take a nature photo with your mobile phone camera, which you will use the next day.
At 8 p.m., a two-course dinner prepared by our guest chef Mattias Svensson, Varberg's well-known restaurant and chef.
Sleep well!
Saturday, June 3
7:00-9:00 a.m. Breakfast
9:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. The interior design course continues with Daniella Witte.
The day begins with a guided meditation entitled "Find your inner color." We work on "Our own painting of color samples" for upcoming mood boards and get an overview of natural materials, their nuances, and the energy they bring to a room.
Block 1:
How do we distribute materials, colors, and shapes to achieve a balance that creates a harmonious and sustainable whole, resulting in the perfect room to enjoy?
Block 2:
How we can find inspiration through the camera lens by looking at our own nature photos.
Block 3:
How can we think in terms of materials science when we go out and shop for secondhand and recycled items? Inspiration for creating a style that is uniquely yours.
12:30 p.m. Lunch
1:00 p.m. Silent Walking, Nature Inspiration & Mood Boards.
We wander together, but individually, into the forest in silence to gather natural finds that symbolize the choice of materials for your room.
Block 4: You create a mood board for your room. Creative time where you create the room you have visualized.
3:00 p.m. Coffee break
3:30 p.m. Free time. Hang out by the pool, take a dip in the hot tub, or just relax.
At 6:30 p.m., enjoy a three-course dinner created by our guest chef Mattias.
At around 9 p.m., Petra will lead a relaxing Yoga Nidra session to end the day.
Sweet dreams!
