The Retreat Center is ment as a place for personal growth and where you can be yourself truly.
The therapy consists of courses, individual therapy and group therapy: The courses in personal development are about finding your true self and understanding life. Individual therapy focuses on self-exploration/self-inquiry to find out who we truly are and what is preventing us from being ourselves fully. In the group therapy we learn from each other because all people are basically built the same way – and because it is much easier to see and understand others than to see and understand one self. — The therapy is holistic mind-body medicine.
During your stay as a patient at the Elsebråne Retreat Center you can participate in our daily therapy group that lasts between one and two hours and is lead by Søren and Pavlina.
