Yoga Northwest Adventures

An EPIC trip! The country, the food, the people, the history, the trains/trams/buses/ferries not to mention the yoga, hiking and biking, were all amazing (so many stories). We packed so much into our time together. Ingela gave us a broad and varied experience of her homeland; from the mountains north of the Arctic Circle to the islands in the Swedish archipelago to the metropolis of Stockholm. 

The Abisko National Park above the Arctic Circle is just “WOW”! Great start to the adventure with each additional segment of the trip being unique and wonderful in its own way. I am so glad I invested in this experience for myself and highly recommend a yoga adventure with Ingela!

The Sweden 2023 trip that I did with Ingela this summer was simply glorious. Exploring beautiful Stockholm, hiking in the pristine Arctic area of Abisko (including plunging into an ice-covered lake!), revelling in summertime on two of the lovely islands in the archipelago, well, it was all so interesting and enjoyable.

The comradeship of fellow travellers, great food, unique accommodations, grounding and heart opening yoga classes, and of course, the sparkling and knowledgeable presence of Ingela as our guide were all part of the enjoyment of these two weeks. I had always wanted to spend time in Sweden, and I can’t imagine any better way to do this than on this trip of a lifetime!

I really like Sweden a lot. There was so much to appreciate. I liked all the three destinations, even the 17 hour train ride north! Loved Abisko and the alpine hiking, the biking on the island of Uto and doing yoga on the island of Idöborg. I now feel ready to continue my yoga practice more seriously again. Thank you so much Ingela for a wonderful trip!

The Arctic was wonderful! The two day hikes were beautiful, yet also very different with helpful and encouraging guides. Loved our Mountain Inn, which was natural and homey, with lovely views wherever you turned. Also loved Idöborg, with its tranquil setting and delicious home cooked food! I really appreciated Ingela’s positive nature and all her detailed planning.

The trip was beautifully planned and it was wonderful having Ingela in charge. It helped me be able to let go, relax, return to nature, hike, swim, practice yoga, bike and eat magnificent food. Of course our private chef on the Island of Idöborg was fantastic.

Traveling with a group and not having to plan the vacation was a new experience. I was so pleased to meet every person on our adventure. They were all lovely people!

Seeing and experiencing three different areas of Sweden was amazing.  And doing yoga morning and evening was very enjoyable. Ingela’s yoga talks will be with me in mind and spirit. I am now encouraged to start my own daily practice and find an instructor. Also the friendly Swedish people have motivated me to be more positive minded!

One highlight was Ingela’s generous spirit as she took the time to help me as a beginning yogi with her positive spirit. She also selected an itinerary with diverse experiences, by taking us to three different destinations that were all beautiful and stunning. A valuable lesson I am now taking with me home is how I can use the breath to help me relax and tame my monkey mind, but also how to cultivate a positive attitude by conquering the negative thoughts. Thank you!
