About This Event

Description

Nytårsweekend 2027 er et meditationsretreat med titlen Gradual Awakening, en stille weekend med samatha-praksis, insight-meditation og blid yoga på Siala i Hvalsø på Sjælland. Retreatet er for både nye og erfarne meditatorer og ledes af Helen Stephenson og Christin Illeborg. Der er plads til højst 25 deltagere, og man kan komme hele weekenden eller nøjes med en enkelt dag.

Sådan foregår weekenden

Retreatet kalder ikke på et gennembrud, men på en gradvis forfinelse af opmærksomheden. Vi bevæger os fra mindfulness i kroppen gennem dyb, stille yoga til en bred, kærlig og rummelig bevidsthed. Samatha-praksis er det stille bagtæppe: sindet samles om åndedrættet, rummet og nærværet, så opmærksomheden kan hvile i sig selv.

Programmet består af guidet meditation og blide yogabevægelser, som passer til alle aldre og niveauer. Stille perioder afløses af tid til at dele erfaringer, og der er mulighed for gåture i landskabet omkring huset. Begge dage løber fra kl. 10 til kl. 17.

Retreatet faciliteres med let hånd. Alle aktiviteter er frivillige, så du selv kan vælge, hvad du vil fordybe dig i: kroppens og sindets velvære, forholdet til dig selv og andre eller forbindelsen til verden omkring dig. Tapas forstås her som en renselse, hvor det unødvendige falder bort. Teksten henter inspiration hos Kabir, hvor praksis ikke peger på et mål, men på en erfaring af tomhed og fylde på samme tid.

Om Helen Stephenson

Helen Stephenson er oprindeligt fra Tyskland og bor i England. Hun har undervist mange 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 insight-meditation (vipassana), med rod i den tidlige buddhistiske tradition og buddhistisk psykologi. Hun henter også inspiration fra Pali-kanonen, poesi, litteratur, filosofi og kunst.

Hun har praktiseret meditation siden 2000 og undervist siden 2007, og hun har undervejs været tilknyttet japanske, tibetanske og theravada-traditioner. Hun er uddannet i mindfulness-baseret kognitiv terapi hos Mark Williams ved Oxford University og gennemførte i 2022 Bodhi College's Dharma Teacher Training som elev af Christina Feldman. Hun er en af grundlæggerne af Copenhagen Insight Meditation og underviser kurser og silent retreats i Norden.

Stedet

Retreatet holdes på Siala i Hvalsø. Der kører tog til Hvalsø Station, og derfra er der cirka 20 minutters gang på den grønne sti eller 5 minutter på cykel. Huset er skofrit.

Før du kommer

Retreatet er åbent for alle niveauer, og du behøver ingen forudgående erfaring. Det foregår på dansk og engelsk. Der er meditationspuder, stole, tæpper og yogamåtter til alle, men du er velkommen til at tage dit eget udstyr med.

Medbring sokker eller hjemmesko til det skofrie hus og tøj efter vejrudsigten, hvis du vil med på gåture. Måltider skal du selv have med, men der er kaffe, te, nødder og frugt til alle. Overnatning og transport er ikke inkluderet.

Common Questions

FAQs

The weekend is framed as a gentle refinement of attention rather than a breakthrough. Samatha practice, gathering the mind with the breath, space and presence, forms a quiet backdrop so attention can rest in itself. The path moves from mindfulness in the body, through deep, quiet yoga, to a wide, loving and spacious awareness.
Christin Illeborg is a Copenhagen-based dharma and mindfulness teacher who trained in MBCT and graduated from Bodhi College's Dharma Teacher Training in 2022. Helen Stephenson is originally from Germany, lives in England, has taught several retreats at Gaia House (UK), and has spent her life studying yoga, Pilates, mindfulness, meditation and counselling.
The yoga is described as gentle and suitable for all ages and abilities, with a focus on deep, quiet movement. All activities are optional, and the retreat is facilitated with a 'light touch'. You can shape the weekend around what matters most to you, whether that is well-being, your relationships, or your connection to the world.
The programme mixes quiet periods with times for sharing, so it is not a fully silent retreat. The aim is to leave plenty of space for silence while also building a sense of community. Guided meditation and practices on turning a practice into a path are part of the mix.
