Healing retreats - who we are and what we offer

Visiting a therapist can be helpful. It sure can be the opposite too. We have a different approach. Instead of regular one-hour- therapy or healing sessions you stay with us for a week – or more. We encapsulate you in an environment with many different types of medicine. Let us name a few:

  • Being heard and understood

  • Meditation


  • Massage

  • 
Play! What made you happy as a kid? Playing football, picking flowers, cooking, building sandcastles, being creative? Let us know - we may bring some long-forgotten play back into your life.

  • 
Daily swims in a holy lake


  • Healthy, local, well-tasting food


  • Connecting with nature


  • Music

  • 
Laughs & cries


  • Bird song

  • Herbal/plant medicine

After a stay with us you will have received some powerful tools to deal with yourself, your relationship, people and society. If you continue this path, you will be stronger, feel better, healthier and happier every day. The goal is that you one day will say 'I am very thankful for the crises that I went through! It kickstarted a journey that made me a happy, empowered person that I really love'.

About our background and our own healing journey

Our story is wild, and too long for this format. Without knowing it we stepped into the shamanic path about a decade ago, a path known as being one you are chosen for. It is a very difficult path and making it through takes a lot of strength. Our path went through ‘the normal world’. It was our businesses, our marriage, our relationships and society that caused us constant friction that we could grow from. We have now landed safely after the journey and feel ready to share our medicine.

Some of the many life challenges we have battled together, and that we are now ready to help other people go through, are:

  • Debt and bankruptcy

  • Being a heart-shaped person trying to fit into a square world (hint: it is not possible)

  • Leaving society behind to live life on our own terms

  • The dedication to making our soul’s mission a living

  • Severe stress and burn-out

  • Narcissistic abuse

  • Starting our life over from scratch several times

  • Meaninglessness, deep depression/dark night of the soul

  • Having our reputation battered by an international media storm

  • Structural violence

  • Making a marriage and twin flame relationship work through it all, including the years we spent living apart.

  • Creating a partnership in romance, parenthood and business that goes beyond our wildest dreams

  • Walking the shamanic path as a ‘normal’ person

  • Preparing for and Integrating plant medicine experiences

We went through all this and more and came out on the other side much stronger and wiser. In the process we got stripped off all that we are not and found our true self.

The issues you have right now can become blessings well disguised the best things that ever happened to you if you deal with them correctly. Use this opportunity wisely. And please, don't listen to your doctor and get something to suppress the symptoms. Your life is too important for that.

Our background

We are lifelong entrepreneurs, and have created many different businesses together, always focusing on natural food, health and a sustainable lifestyle. Alongside all of this we have done the deep inner work we intuitively knew was the most important contribution to the creation of the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible. Our life has always, knowingly or unknowingly, been about participating in creating the new era for humanity, that we are now at the threshold of.

Flora has had a big interest in how the human psyche works since she was a sensitive child who always felt more at home in nature but also that she had to learn to fit in with humans. This interest was re-activated when she had her first serious stress breakdown in her early 30-ies and led to deep studies and a counselling certification in working with the enneagram. She later studied shamanic healing and herbalism and has explored a range of different modalities like human design, tantra, plant spirit medicine, modern era shamanism/energy healing work and reading the akashic records. In her work as a chef, a journalist and a cookbook author she went deep into nutrition and ancestral eating. Her daily spiritual practice consists of working with nature spirits in her everyday activities such as cooking, gardening, hiking on the volcano, meditating by and swimming in the lake. She also has a spirit team that she speaks with on a daily basis. She just started her studies on Mayan cosmology, and she loves to join the Mayan fire ceremonies here in San Pedro.

Flemming started practicing meditation in his 20’ies and has used the enneagram a lot both personally and in his businesses. He didn’t fully commit to personal development before his first ayahuasca journey when he was 47 years old and met God. This opened for a whole new world view – or rather the way he had always functioned in the world suddenly made sense. He followed up with several more ayahuasca journeys as well as other types of plant medicine and two years of shamanic healing studies. Flemming insists on bringing integrity to every situation he is, and this has caused him many problems in a shallow world. But he has now turned this into his most powerful healing gift - he sees through lies, even those people tell themselves, and is not afraid to say what he sees out loud. Flemming also has the gift of being able to look into the future, and see what will be needed then. He works closely with a team of spirit guides in his otherwise very practical work to bring peace, positive co-existence and healing to the world.

Together we have been in lots of couple’s counselling, and therefore we know much of it doesn’t work. It may make you stay together a little longer, but the relationship still feels like hard work. Getting to the root cause of things can be very difficult. What really fuelled our own journey of healing individually and as a couple was a year-long dedication to weekly, very intentional private magic mushroom ceremonies.

Where are we at now?

Our healing journey was a long and winding road of ups and downs. Sometimes it seemed like it would never end, the struggles and hardships that we now know are a part of the shamanic journey. But we feel it’s safe to say we are past the long dark tunnel and out in the light again.

We turned our lives from being in a very difficult situation to having a life that is very close to being in full alignment with our values. Both our romantic relationship and our partnership in business goes way beyond our wildest dreams, we like the people we see in the mirror, we have good friends who have our backs, our kids are doing well, particularly considering what we took them through, and physically we are in the best shape of our lives at the age of 46 and 52, as these words are written in 2025.

What does it take to live a life beyond your wildest dreams?

Living your dream life is possible, but it takes deep inner work, radical self-acceptance and a commitment to not settling for anything less than a deeply delicious, fulfilling life in every little detail. It also takes a lot of trust and some sacrifices.

We have made some bold and unorthodox choices to get where we are at now. We have burned bridges; cut cords and chosen paths many would have never dared to go down. We have unapologetically followed the ways of our hearts. It has had a lot of consequences for us, but the gifts are even bigger. We strongly recommend more people to dare follow their dreams and that little voice that says there must be more to life.

We now live a life that looks and feels like a dream but is real, touchable manifested reality.

It didn’t come easily, and it wasn’t cheap. We have spent around 75.000 USD on therapy altogether. Years of our lives have been spent on doing healing work, of those countless investigations of our deepest fears, shame and outdated patterns. We have spent many evenings and nights puking dark shit up in plastic buckets and just as many mornings feeling completely blissful and connected to a source higher than us. We have healed ourselves in many ways and helped people out of abuse and to find/change their path in life. We have lost everything we built up several times, but always managed to get back up on our feet and build something even better.

Our knowledge is also based on nature's intelligence, evolution, science, traditional wisdom and not least our intuition. Basically, it all comes to the fact that the closer we are to nature, the better we feel on all levels. That goes for our environment, what we eat, how we move, think, feel etc. Nature’s intelligence is so beautiful that what is good for us is also good for Mother Earth. Of course! We advocate for and show a way of living that is truly sustainable.

At the same time we are a normal family with friends, kids and a business. We love loud music, good food, belly laughs and driving a motorbike – and occasionally we also enjoy to have a chat with the spirit realm.

Healing retreats in groups and 1:1

  • 1:1 & Group Retreat: Recovering from narcissistic abuse

    Maybe you have just acknowledged the signs that you are dealing with a narcissist and know it’s time to get out of a relationship, situation or job position – or you may have been out for a while, maybe even years. No matter what, the bruises on your mind and soul from an encounter with a narcissist need to be cared for, so they don’t end up being permanent marks of hopelessness, bitterness and life wasted.

    Our retreats for those recovering from narcissistic abuse is a safe haven to land among people who have experienced on their own mind, body, soul and wallet (as is often the case) just how devastating such an encounter is.
