About This Event

Description

Nytårsweekend 2027 er et stille meditationsretreat med yoga og siddende meditation, ledet af Helen Stephenson og Christin Illeborg hos Siala i Hvalsø på Sjælland. Weekendens tema er den gradvise opvågnen mod samatha: en nænsom forfinelse af opmærksomheden, hvor sindet trin for trin samler sig og kan begynde at hvile i sig selv.

Retreatet er for alle interesserede, også dig der aldrig har prøvet yoga eller meditation. Du kan deltage begge dage eller vælge en enkelt dag. Det foregår på dansk og er arrangeret af Copenhagen Insight Meditation og Nordic Dharma.

Sådan forløber dagene

Hver dag løber fra kl. 10 til 17 og følger samme rytme. Formiddagen rummer en længere, fordybende yogapraksis, som går videre i siddende meditation. Man begynder med mindfulness i kroppen og bevæger sig mod en mere vidstrakt, kærlig og rummelig bevidsthed. Med støtte fra åndedrættet, rummet og nærværet samler sindet sig gradvist.

Efter frokost er der meditation og refleksion, en talk og tid til at stille spørgsmål. Søndag er der desuden mulighed for gåture i landskabet omkring huset.

Undervisningen bygger på de tidlige tekster, hvor Buddha beskriver, hvordan sindet samler sig trin for trin: fra opmærksomhed på åndedrættet til glæde og velbehag og videre ind i dybere ro og ligevægt. Man kan også møde en sensitivitet og modtagelighed, som minder om barndommens øjeblikke af fordybelse og leg.

Om Helen Stephenson

Helen Stephenson kommer oprindeligt fra Tyskland og bor i England. Hun har undervist adskillige retreats på Gaia House i Storbritannien. Hun har viet et helt liv til praksis og studier af yoga, pilates, mindfulness, meditation og rådgivning.

Om Christin Illeborg

Christin Illeborg er dharma-, mindfulness- og meditationslærer med base i København og Hvalsø. Hun underviser både sekulær mindfulness (MBCT/MBSR) og buddhistisk meditation, især vipassana, og hendes undervisning er forankret i den tidlige buddhistiske tradition og buddhistisk psykologi. Hun henter også inspiration fra Palikanonen, poesi, litteratur, filosofi og kunst. Hun har praktiseret meditation siden 2000 og undervist siden 2007, og har undervejs været involveret i japanske, tibetanske og theravada-traditioner. Hun er uddannet i mindfulnessbaseret kognitiv terapi hos Mark Williams ved Oxford University og gennemførte i 2022 Bodhi Colleges Dharma Teacher Training som elev af Christina Feldman. Hun er medstifter af Copenhagen Insight Meditation og underviser kurser og stilhedsretreats i Norden.

Stedet og vejen dertil

Før du kommer

Common Questions

FAQs

The organizers describe it as a quiet refinement of attention rather than a breakthrough. You begin with mindfulness in the body through slow, deepening yoga, then widen into a more spacious, kind awareness. With support from the breath and the space, the mind gathers step by step, following the early Buddhist description of moving from attention on the breath to joy and ease, and on to deeper calm and equanimity.
No. The organizers state that no experience with yoga or meditation is required and that everyone interested is welcome. The yoga is described as calm and absorbing, and the weekend is built around simple practice.
Mornings consist of a longer, absorbing yoga practice followed by seated meditation. After lunch there is meditation practice and reflection, then a talk with the chance to ask questions. Each day runs from 10 to 17, and the weekend is billed as one of silence, yoga and meditation.
Yes, you can join one day or both. Pricing is sliding so that everyone can take part. The weekend costs 1,900 kr (Støttet), 2,200 kr (Basis) or 2,600 kr (Bidrager). A single day costs 1,100, 1,400 or 1,700 kr respectively. Registration is separate for the weekend and the day ticket.
