Heaven on Earth – Tantric Summer Retreat in Skeppsudden
Welcome to our annual summer retreat in Skeppsudden!
27 June- 3 July – 2022
The last 2 years has brought many wild surprises and whatever comes and whatever will be, we believe that love & unity is what will make sense out of it all and help us to grow towards a deeper understanding, maturity, connection and trust. We will in an intimate ambience of heartful community spirit explore the vast potential of our being in an idyllic nature setting in Sweden.
Welcome to join us for a new adventures in our upcoming summer retreat: Heaven on Earth!
The tantric tradition teaches us not look for heaven or liberation in some other life or in another place – but in the here and now.
For that we need to learn how to open, to be fully alive into the essence of life.
What does it take for you to do this? What do you need to let go of to open up to your ecstatic inner essence? What does it take for you to invite more of heaven into you life?
Join us to find and and bring back HEAVEN ON EARTH!
(more into about the theme coming up soon)

Over the last years, participants for our summer retreats have shared that they experienced the best days of their entire life at our retreats. I think one can not get a better feedback than that
The Heaven on Earth Summer Retreat is about self-knowledge and awakening. Knowing and discovering ourselves at a deeper level. Awakening to life and to the beauty around us, awakening the senses and to the countless facets of joy and superior pleasures, awakening our consciousness in a dauntless lucid abandonment into any opportunity life is offering us, awakening to ourselves and to each other in natural heart presence. Throughout the 7 days there will be space to meet heart to heart, enjoy and laugh together, space to create trust, intimacy and loving connections. There will be guidance into beautiful meetings & insights in the tantric teachings.
In this retreat we aim to create a perfect blend of holiday & heart work. The retreat offers a chance to share knowledge, to open up to the new, to embrace the old, to courageously meet life-transformations, to explore sensuality in the light of full awareness and to surrender to love´s breath-taking gifts of connecting to others and to your inner source of happiness.
By consciously engaging in the perpetual forces of life, you will have the chance to enter the common energetic field of the community, which we will create together. It will allow you to engage in a playful and spontaneous way in the activities of the retreat, to open up to your inner resources and enhance your vital, sensual and energetic experience, as well as your subtle awareness and feeling of yourself. This is what most people that attended our retreats in the past felt as truly magical, the profound heart connections created in togetherness – and our last retreats were all sold out!

About the teachers
Aurora Georgijevic
Aurora has practised yoga and tantra for the last 16 years and is an internationally certified yoga and tantra teacher. A deep interest in health, awakening and personal development led her in an early stage of life to various spiritual teachings and further on to a university degree in Science of Public Health. Discovering tantra, she became deeply fascinated by the practical and all-embracing attitude of the tantric teachings, of applying and discovering this wisdom in daily life. Tantra helped her to discover that ecstasy is not reserved for special occasions, but can be unlocked in every aspect of life. Her teaching style is playful, honest&direct, full of wisdom, enthusiasm and deep love for the tantric tradition. For the last 10 years, Aurora has been the coordinator for a flourishing yoga centre and is currently teaching in Natha Yoga Centre in both Malmö & Stockholm. She is teaching courses in yoga, tantra, tantra for women and arranging various events, workshops, retreats and festivals. She is also the coordinator of Tantrafestival in Sweden. Her soul ambition in this life is to passionately spread the message of the transforming power of love and to make the wisdom teachings accessible to as many people as possible.

Tantra & Sacred Sensuality
The body is a temple offering us an enormous potential of energetic experiences. We can explore it consciously through a great variety of touch, energy games, sensorial experiences or just a simple lucid awareness upon the breathing. There are infinite ways to awaken through tantra when first you know the basic methodology. It is kind of inborn in us and many today even call it ‘human technology’.
Tantra & The Heart
At the heart of any spiritual celebration is always the spirit.It is the spiritual heart connection, which truly makes us feel connected. The body, its senses and magnificent aliveness of vibrant energies are offering us a great variety of possibilities to connect with each other and with ourselves, to offer pleasure to each other and experience pleasure in our own being, to offer loving presence and to experience love. Our Summer Retreat is an experience happening simultaneously inside and outside ourselves.
Surrender What You Are, To Find What You Could Become
By consciously engaging in the perpetual forces of life, you will have the chance to enter the common energetic field of the community, which we will create together. It will allow you to engage in a playful and spontaneous way in the activities of the retreat, to open up to your inner resources and enhance your vital, sensual and energetic experience, as well as your subtle awareness and feeling of yourself
