Christmas Party Retreat

Looking for a peaceful and uplifting way to end your week?

Join us every Thursday at Ananda Gaorii for our Open Day! This is a wonderful opportunity not only to relax, recharge, and connect with others but also to experience the unique Ananda Gaorii lifestyle and community.

Art & Spirituality Retreat 2023

 

A Weekend of Chanting, Meditation, and Workshops!
 
Join us for a three day retreat that will take you on a fascinating journey through the intersection of the artistic and spiritual worlds.
Take advantage of this opportunity to immerse yourself in a serene and natural environment at Ananda Gaorii. Our program includes a variety of creative workshops, yoga, meditation, and more to help you relax and express yourself mindfully.
As we approach the winter season, this retreat is a unique opportunity to delve deep into your creativity and inner life. Through music, dance, painting, movement, and mantra, the workshops offer a platform for you to unleash your creative potential while remaining present and attentive to the process of creation.
This retreat is open to anyone interested in spirituality and art, whether you come alone, with a partner, or with your children. You’ll have the chance to relax in the beautiful surroundings of Ananda Gaorii while exploring new forms of expression, stimulating your imagination, and meeting other like-minded individuals.
 

VENUE:

Nestled on 13 hectares of farmland just an hour away from Copenhagen, you’ll find Ananda Gaorii Ashram – a peaceful oasis for those seeking a rejuvenating escape. Our serene retreat boasts a range of amenities, including a small orchard, vegetable garden, organic bakery, sauna, meditation hall, dining hall, and more.
 
 

ACCOMMODATION:

At Ananda Gaorii Ashram, we offer separate dormitories for both men and women. These spacious rooms can comfortably accommodate up to 10 people. Alternatively, if you prefer to be closer to nature, you’re also welcome to camp on our beautiful grounds.
 

CUISINE:

Our cuisine follows the yogic vegetarian diet, which is based on foods that are not only beneficial for the body but also calming for the mind. Most meals are vegan, but we also provide a vegan alternative for dishes that contain dairy products. The yogic vegetarian diet excludes fish, eggs, onion, garlic, and mushrooms, as these foods are believed to be disturbing to the mind.
