This was our last year retreat:
Step gently into a sacred space where stillness unveils the depths of your being. Through the Self-Investigation Method, the timeless teachings of the
Aramaic Jesus, and A Course in Miracles, we will journey together into the heart of presence.
Immerse yourself in silence, mindful relaxation, and walking meditations amid the radiant beauty of midsummer nature. Nourish your body with Kreivilä’s
celebrated vegetarian cuisine and your soul with profound moments of peace. Guiding this retreat are spiritual seeker Jussi Penttinen and fellow traveler in consciousness, Sampsa Korhonen. Theme: “Unity in Silence”

KREIVILÄ MID-SUMMER RETREAT 11–13 JULY 2025, FINLAND
Our retreat offers a chance to open the door to inner stillness, step beyond the ego-mind, and connect with what is eternal and true. Silence speaks directly to the heart and unites us in oneness.
During the retreat, we will explore the method of self-investigation and engage in relaxation, presence, and meditation practices to embrace the joy of Being. The importance of silence is emphasized to cultivate balance and peace. We will also delve into A Course in Miracles, the teachings of the Aramaic Jesus, and experience profound inner peace amidst the serene beauty of Kreivilä’s mid-summer nature.
Kreivilä is located 130 km from Helsinki, 100 km from Turku, and 70 km from Tampere, nestled in a 1500-acre property. The old manor house dates back to the 1860s. Kreivilä’s vegetarian kitchen is highly praised, with meals prepared on-site, often using ingredients from their own garden. July's lush summer nature is at its peak, and the peaceful swimming spots of nearby Lake Matkujärvi invite relaxation.
More Information:
The retreat fee includes full-board accommodation (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) and the three-day guided retreat program for €270/person. Accommodation is in shared rooms for 1–4 people. A single room incurs an additional fee of €40–60 for larger groups. Participants are asked to bring their own toiletries, sheets, and towels. A sheet and towel set can be rented from Kreivilä for €25/set if needed. Vegetarian meals are served, and alcohol is prohibited on the premises.
