Arrival & Check-in + Orientation
Guests arrive at the retreat property, check in and join a short orientation and introductions session.
Tips from local experts:
- Place: Armonia Country Cabin (Langamýri 1). There is a gravel driveway and on-site parking — park close to the main entrance for easiest access.
- If you need mobility assistance or a ground-floor room, notify the organizer before arrival so they can prepare; steps may be present in older country cabins.
- Bring a light day bag and any medication you need overnight; luggage assistance is available at check-in.
Dinner (shared meal)
A relaxed, sit-down dinner served at the retreat venue to meet other participants.
Tips from local experts:
- Dietary needs: confirm any allergies or special diets before arrival so the kitchen can accommodate them.
- Meals are communal — seating is arranged for calm conversation and easy access; ask for a quieter table if preferred.
- Plan for moderate portion sizes; extra servings are usually available on request.
Vocal Chakra Tuning Session
Group vocal exercise focused on the throat (vocal) chakra to open expression and breath.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear comfortable, breathable clothing to allow free movement and relaxed breathing.
- If you have recent vocal strain or throat issues, inform the facilitator before the session for gentler participation options.
- There will be seating and floor cushions; bring any personal support cushions if you prefer extra back support.
Guided Healing Meditation with Sound Healing
A guided meditation supported by sound instruments to promote relaxation and grounding.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive a few minutes early to settle in and turn off mobile devices; signal range at rural properties can be spotty.
- Use the provided blanket or cushion for comfort; request additional padding if you have joint sensitivity.
- If you are sensitive to low-frequency sounds or vibrations, mention it to the facilitator so they can adjust instruments.
Kirtan Music Session
A communal chanting and devotional music session to close the evening.
Tips from local experts:
- Participatory but low-impact: stand or sit as comfortable — seating is provided for those who prefer to remain seated.
- If you have hearing sensitivity, request a seat further from percussion instruments.
- Evening temperatures can drop; keep a light layer handy for post-session comfort.
Reflection and Journaling
Short guided reflection and journaling time to process the day's experiences before lights-out.
Tips from local experts:
- Pens and journals may be provided; bring your own if you prefer a specific journal or writing style.
- Use this time to note practical follow-ups (meditation, breathing exercises) you want to continue at home.
- Quiet hours are observed after sessions; plan medication or restroom needs in advance to avoid late-night disruptions.
Day 2
Saturday — full program day: morning movement and meditations, midday free time or local sightseeing in Selfoss, afternoon healing sessions and evening ceremonial practices.
Breakfast
Hearty country-style breakfast served at the retreat venue.
Tips from local experts:
- Breakfast is served buffet-style; arrive within the posted window to avoid crowding.
- If you require a lower-sugar or specific breakfast, notify staff ahead of time to ensure suitable options.
- Bring a refillable water bottle; still water for refills is available at the dining area.
Awaken the Body (gentle movement)
Short, gentle movement practice to wake the body — suitable for all mobility levels.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear non-restrictive clothing and flat-soled shoes or go barefoot on indoor mats as instructed.
- Ask for seated or supported variations if standing balance is a concern; instructors will offer adaptations.
- Hydrate lightly before the session; there will be a brief rest period afterwards.
Guided Healing Meditation Session
A deeper meditation practice with guidance from the retreat healers.
Tips from local experts:
- Choose a comfortable seat in advance; cushions and chairs are available for different needs.
- If you take regular medication, have it accessible — the session is quiet and may extend your perceived resting period.
- If you require shorter intervals, let the facilitator know and they will provide a gentle cue to rejoin.
Lunch (local restaurant in Selfoss)
Lunch taken at a local restaurant in Selfoss or nearby — a relaxed, seated meal off-site.
Tips from local experts:
- The group will travel by short transfer; wear comfortable shoes and bring a light jacket for variable weather.
- If you prefer to remain on-site instead of traveling into town, notify staff in advance to arrange an alternative lunch.
- Carry any necessary mobility aids; town restaurants may have steps — ask staff for step-free seating if needed.
Sightseeing trip or free time (2–3 hours)
Short sightseeing or free time in Selfoss — guests may walk the town center, visit a café, or rest at the cabin.
Tips from local experts:
- Town center sidewalks are generally level; use pedestrian crossings and ask staff for a short suggested walking route.
- If you have limited stamina, use the cabin as a quiet alternative — staff can recommend a short accessible walking loop.
- Carry a small day bag with water, sun protection or a rain layer depending on conditions; July daylight is long but weather can change.
Sacred Energies: Sound & Reiki Healing Session
Afternoon group session combining sound therapy and Reiki energy work.
Tips from local experts:
- Sessions are typically done lying or seated; request a chair if floor-lying is difficult for you.
- Limit heavy meals immediately beforehand to remain comfortable during the session.
- If you have metal implants or medical devices, inform the healer beforehand so any percussion or tools are used safely.
Dinner
Evening dinner served at the retreat venue.
Tips from local experts:
- Evening meals are served at set times; arrive promptly to maintain the shared schedule and allow staff to serve all guests.
- If you require low-sodium or other specific modifications, reconfirm with staff at breakfast.
- Evening lighting is soft for relaxation — bring a small personal reading light if you plan to read afterward.
Manifestation Session
An evening guided session focused on intentions and manifestation practices.
Tips from local experts:
- Have a small notebook or the retreat journal to hand for writing intentions during the session.
- If standing for any portion is difficult, request a seated position in advance.
- Expect a contemplative, quiet format — speak to the facilitator if you prefer shorter sharing turns.
Cacao Ceremony / Natural Icelandic Herbal Tea
A short ceremonial tasting — cacao or herbal tea — held as part of evening ritual (non-alcoholic).
Tips from local experts:
- If you have caffeine sensitivity or food allergies, confirm ingredients beforehand; herbal tea alternatives are available.
- Ceremony portions are small; request an extra cup if you prefer more herbal tea afterwards.
- Drink slowly and remain seated if you experience any lightheadedness after ceremonial cacao.
Fire Cleansing & Manifestation Ceremony
Outdoor fire ceremony for symbolic release and setting intentions (weather permitting).
Tips from local experts:
- This is an outdoor activity — bring a warm layer and a windproof jacket; winds can be cool in open country even in summer.
- Participants should keep a safe distance from flames; follow facilitator instructions closely for seating and movement.
- If weather prevents an outdoor fire, the ceremony will move indoors to a designated ceremonial space; be prepared for a brief change of location.
Drum Circle & Kirtan Music Session
Closing music session for the evening combining percussion and chanting.
Tips from local experts:
- Noise levels can rise during percussion; if you prefer lower volume, request a seat away from drums.
- Short standing or swaying participation is encouraged; remain seated if balance is a concern.
- The session usually ends with quiet reflection — have a small personal blanket nearby for post-session comfort.
Day 3
Sunday — gentle morning program, final reflections, oracle readings, lunch and departure.
Breakfast
Final group breakfast at the retreat venue.
Tips from local experts:
- Breakfast timings are designed to allow a calm departure; eat in the first sitting to allow for final checks and packing.
- Pack any medication or personal items you will need immediately after departure to avoid rummaging through luggage.
- If you plan to depart earlier than the scheduled group transfer, let staff know the evening before so arrangements can be made.
Awaken the Body (gentle movement)
Short morning movement to prepare the body for travel and final sessions.
Tips from local experts:
- Choose gentle movements and ask for a chair variation if standing balance is a concern.
- A short walk outside after movement can help circulation before the final meditations.
- Apply sunscreen if you plan to step outside; summer mornings can already be sunny.
Healing Meditation Session
Final guided meditation to integrate the retreat experience.
Tips from local experts:
- Find a comfortable seated position in advance; cushions and chairs are available for support.
- If you plan to continue the practice at home, request a short take-home sequence from the facilitator.
- If you experience strong emotions during integration, speak privately with a facilitator afterward for support.
Reflection and Journaling
Time for personal reflection, guided journaling prompts and final personal integration.
Tips from local experts:
- Use the guided prompts to capture immediate insights you want to retain after the retreat.
- If you prefer a quieter spot, speak with staff to reserve a nearby seating area with natural light.
- Save contact details or notes from fellow participants if you wish to maintain post-retreat connections.
Oracle Card Readings & Sharing
Short group sharing and optional oracle card readings for personal guidance and closure.
