Door Opener 1

This four-day course is for those who long to open the door to their inner world. Stress, burnout, and relationship difficulties often arise when we lose touch with ourselves and live in order to be good, to be liked, and to meet the needs of others. Discovering and acknowledging that we all carry anger and sorrow within us is an important step, as these feelings are often denied or suppressed.

We spend much of our precious time in a state of emotional numbness — a kind of living deadness that protects us from pain, but also prevents us from experiencing the joy of being fully present in the moment. To live more in contact with ourselves, we need to welcome all of our emotions.

Through breathing exercises and various active meditations, you will be supported in discovering your feelings and awakening the life energy within you. You will begin to relate to yourself and others in a more authentic and loving way.

The course includes guided meditations, exercises, and shared reflections. All activities are voluntary. The course has an exploratory and experiential focus and is designed for personal development in a group setting.

Door Opener – Step 1, August 19–23, 2026, will be held in English. Other courses are held in Swedish.
