ABOUT THE RETREAT
On the heights, just near the charming village of Santa Maria a Monte, lies Villa Rosita waiting for you. This place beckons you with a promise of inner peace, where your heart takes center stage.
Here, you have time to enjoy your own company, listen to your inner voice, and sense yourself in harmony with the nature that embraces you.
Through a varied program, we will explore your inner truth using methods such as dream cards, meditation exercises, dream journeys, and yoga/physical movement (Roll & Release). Here, you can open your senses in a heartwarming community with others who also wish to get to know themselves better and discover their own inner beauty and joy.
We will spend our days barefoot in the beautiful park surrounding the villa while you curiously embark on your inner journey. This is an opportunity to explore yourself, connect with your inner joy, and discover the power and wisdom of the heart.
In meeting with the other participants, you will experience lightness and joy as you explore your inner truth. The simple exercises, combined with the picturesque surroundings, serve as important keys to finding peace within yourself. Here, there is space for both deep conversations and valuable alone time.
The course is held in the home of Per and Kari, on a magnificent property that spans over 22 acres, with a beautifully landscaped garden in full bloom, stone paths, and secret spaces for reflection and contemplation. Here, you will feel like a welcome guest and experience an atmosphere of love and care.

ABOUT THE RETREAT
DAILY PROGRAM
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
On the heights, near the charming village of Santa Maria a Monte, lies Villa Rosita waiting for you. Here, you are invited to days where creativity takes center stage, allowing you to play your way to your unique expression while getting to know yourself and your inner voice better.
We offer an intuitive painting experience where you will explore simple painting techniques and color theory based on the teachings of the chakras. This provides you with an exciting method to interpret your paintings and receive personal guidance.
Are you ready to try intuitive painting for the first time? Or do you wish to find a new path to self-exploration? Perhaps you just want to enjoy days with a brush and colors in beautiful natural surroundings? Villa Rosita awaits you and your friends.
Kari and Per will take you on a journey into your inner landscape. While enjoying the fantastic nature, rich colors, and pleasant scents at Villa Rosita, you will be able to express the sensory impressions and emotions that arise on the canvas. Here, there are no rules—only free expression, with good guidance to help you find your personal expression and palette.
With ease and joy, we draw inspiration and awaken creativity while helping you open your senses. Through simple exercises and the beautiful surroundings, you will find peace within yourself, making it easier to listen to your creative wisdom.

Welcome to a week where you say YES to your creativity and zest for life
The Way In.
We start the day with a group gathering where we use meditation, dream cards, breathing exercises, or other techniques. Then it's time to paint under the expert guidance of Kari. Or perhaps you just want some time for yourself to sketch, open your senses, or simply do nothing.
The Journey.
Here, there is room for wonder and amazement. To let go of control and play. The expression can be completely non-figurative (not depicting anything), playful, humorous, and honest. You can paint over as many times as you like. Then you can build upon what lies beneath and shines through. The goal is not to finish the work, but to come into deeper contact with yourself and express it.
Basic Theory.
Some days, we have a group session on color theory, painting techniques, or sketching. We also explore different painting tools in the nature around us and try them out.
