Ancestral Healing Retreat (Family Constellation & Plant Magic)


Ancestral Healing Retreat (Family Constellation & Plant Magic)

A Reclamation of Ancestral Power & the Medicine of Belonging

You are welcome, as we open our garden sanctuary and tiny home up for an intimate 2-days garden retreat for maximum 5 participants.

This is a call to those who long to reclaim the forgotten threads of their ancestral medicine — to listen deeply to the whispers of those who came before, and to stand rooted again in the strength, power, and wisdom of your own lineage.

This retreat is based around a family constellation - a potent therapeutic method for clearing ancestral blockages, creating understanding, flow and healing through the lineage.

Guided by the potent Nordic plants Elder (Hyld) and Hawthorn (Hvidtjørn) — guardians of the threshold and ancestral connectors — as well as Ceremonial Cacao — we will walk into the hedge, the place-between, where the veils are thin and the old ways still live.

Together, we will:

  • Reclaim the medicine of your lineage through ritual, ceremony, and direct connection with your ancestral field

  • Restore (parts of) your spiritual inheritance by clearing old blockages and patterns that no longer serve your line

  • Strengthen your belonging to the land, the spirits, and the web of life

This is a weekend to call back your power, and to anchor your healing in the earth beneath your feet—with the guidance of sacred plants who have always known how to bring us home.

Walking in the forest is quite a psychedelic experience, because everything around me (or maybe it’s me) feels a little more open than before. It’s as if there is a “breakthrough” in a new way after your retreat. The wildest things have happened on an energetic level in the healing of my maternal lineage, and it has simply manifested itself physically!
And thank you for opening up your amazing home and garden! I am SO inspired. Thank you!
— Kamilla, after Ancestral Whispers Retreat 2025

The core of the Retreat

Welcome to our magical medicinal garden, where we will embark on a journey of reconnecting and healing our roots, while reaching toward new growth, creating balance between past and future.

The main pillars of the retreat will be;

  • A Family Constellation with the elder tree

  • A Heart & Hedgewitch Ceremony with Cacao & Hawthorn

  • Food as medicine & herbal treatments

This is your invitation. To return. To reclaim. To remember.

What You Will Experience

This is an intimate garden retreat where we open up the doors to our home and land that we steward, guided by the plants on our land. There will maximum be 5 participants creating space deep personal journeys.

Guided by Hawthorn & Elder — revered by our ancestors and deeply woven into Nordic folklore—offer powerful doorways to ancestral wisdom and heart-centered healing. Under their guidance, we will clear ancestral blockages, deepen our connection to their wise spirits, and step deeper into the sacred relationship between humans and the other-than-human-world.

This was more than a learning experience — it felt like a complete re-structuring of my being. I reconnected deeply with nature and the plants, but more than that, I reconnected with my own essence. I left feeling grounded, empowered, and equipped to walk my own path with the plants. Eva Maria and Stephan created a space where I could truly be myself—no pressure, no performance, just deep presence and transformation.

About Family Constellation with Elder

Family Constellation

Family Constellation is a powerful way to meet, understand and heal ancestral and family patterns. In a constellation, the key energies and people connected to the challenge you bring are “laid out” in the room. Other participants gently step in as representatives, tuning into these energies and supporting the unfolding of your personal story. Guided by Eva Maria and Stephan, you receive focused, individual healing — in a 1.5–2 hour session — while the group’s presence amplifies the process.

Being part of a constellation is deeply insightful, whether you are the one exploring your own pattern or supporting another as a representative. You see mirrors of your own life in others, creating a rich, potent field of learning and transformation. The experience is further deepened by the surrounding plants and nature, creating a holistic space for ancestral healing.

It’s a unique opportunity to heal personal challenges, release inherited blocks, and reconnect with your roots — guided by the collective presence of others and the wisdom of the ancestors.

Elder: Doorway to the Ancestors

"Take off your hat when you pass the Elder tree, for in her branches dwell the ancestors, and in her berries flow the medicine of remembrance."

Elder is far more than the sweet syrup of childhood or the healing tea of winter illness (though it is that too). There is a reason why our ancestors would remove their hats when passing an Elder tree, and why tales of Hyldemor (the Elder Mother) persist in our folklore.

Elder offers a potent gateway—both to the deep halls of ancestral wisdom and to new hope and flowering possibilities. Working with Elder allows us to honor our roots while reaching toward new growth, creating balance between past and future.

Meeting the Heart & the Hedgewitch with Cacao & Hawthorn

Hawthorn: Mother of Dreams & Keeper of the Heart

Hawthorn stands at the threshold between worlds—a protector of boundaries and healer of hearts. Known as "the mother of dreams," this thorned guardian offers gentle yet powerful medicine for emotional healing and heart opening.

In ceremony, Hawthorn creates a safe container for vulnerability, helping us to process grief, sorrow, and anger while simultaneously protecting our tender hearts. Like a wise mother, she tucks us into the dreamworld where healing can occur on the deepest levels.

Your Guides

Stephan and Eva Maria: We are partners in life and work, devoted to guiding sacred awakenings and initiations into the mysteries of nature. For almost a decade, we've been creating spaces where people can reconnect with the spirit of the natural world and their own inner wisdom.

As Plant Wisdom Keepers & Medicine Guides, we invite you on a journey of homecoming — a path where magic emerges when you slow down and listen deeply. Through our Plant Dietas, Sacred Ceremonies, courses and intuitive mentorship, we blend ancient shamanic practices with modern therapeutic approaches, helping you rediscover your connection to the natural world and yourself.

From our Tinyhouse sanctuary in Denmark, we hold space for transformative experiences guided by plant wisdom, seasonal rhythms, and your own innate knowing. Our work isn't about escaping life, but entering more fully into relationship with it—finding wholeness through deep connection with nature and spirit.
