Residency
Esoteric practices and traditions
Start date:

Description
A residency is a self-organised mini-conference with ten attendees or less that are interested and active in a specific topic or area. Each residenty typically includes a few organized excursions and hikes around the island, but we leave significant amount of time and space for self-organized activity, discussions, skill shares, games, sauna — everything that facilitates creative serendipity and connection between the attendees.
This residency is broadly for people who are interested in esoteric practices, from Astrology and Hellinger Constellations, to Native Americ ceremonies and rituals. We invite those that serve in a role of guides, teachers and practicioners, and cannot guarantee a fit for beginners.
