Yoga ~ Permaculture ~ Hiking ~ Regenerative living ~ Plantbased food ~

Etter mange år med ryggsekk og yoga-undervisning verden over, har reisen ført oss "hjem" til Telemark og den gamle husmannsplassen Hagabrekka. I mitt aller første blogginnlegg på norsk deler jeg litt om reisen fra rastløs reising til falleferdig plass uten vann og strøm til et levende samlingspunkt for yoga, permakultur og regenerativ livsstil.

Telemark truly is 'A hikers paradise’. I must admit, I didn’t know anything about the district before buying our land. And every year I discover so much more about all the hikes in the area, the beautiful lakes, mountains, endless trekking routes and magical places to pitch our tent. How could I not know about this hiker’s paradise?

We are excited to welcome you to our 130 hrs. course where we are connecting yoga, permaculture and regenerative living. The fundamental practice of yoga really is to get to know yourself. By getting to know yourself you realize that you are not something separate from nature but deeply connected to the world around you. By observing and understanding the natural logic of nature you can implement that to find more balance and abundance for yourself, which essentially is what permaculture is all about.

The foundation of our idea and dream when starting to look for land was to create a space where people can experience living a regenerative lifestyle, with the opportunity to see and feel the importance of connection to nature. We wanted to offer a widened perception on how you can choose to shape your life differently, to offer tools on how to find your happiness.

Once upon a time, years ago, there was a girl growing up in a village in the far north. At the age of 18 she fell madly in love; the start of a love story that was to last many years. The love was consuming every single part of her existence, it was a crazy love for life; traveling, mountains, yoga, exploring and new adventures, a love that did not have space for any man.

New friendships, healthy mouth-watering meals, hiking, nature experiences and the opportunity to disconnect from the screen are some of the things you can expect at Hagabrekka Wanderland. We are all a family during the retreat, sharing meals, positive vibes, lots of laughter and magical moments in nature. This space is all yours, time to listen to what your mind and body need.

Yoga has a way to bring people together. There is something very special when sharing yoga together in a group of people. Even though an individual practice on separate mats, the energy shared in the room is something unique. Creating peace, tranquility and serenity together, something that can be felt on the outside, but are created by working on our inside, opening up our hearts.
