Dear woman seeking depth, presence, and renewal. We invite you to join us for truly special opportunity to experience Finnish Lapland in a way rarely available, even to locals.
Arctic Being is a carefully guided journey through two distinctly magical settings:
- Arctic Sky, Saariselkä – A warm, comfortable base nestled by the Urho Kekkonen national park, where you’ll land gently into stillness (3 nights)
- Lake Inari Wilderness Resort – Remote, elemental, and profoundly peaceful. A lakeside sanctuary only reached by boat, where simplicity reveals what truly matters (3 nights).
This is the first time we connect these two locations into one seamless retreat experience—a retreat that blends comfort with raw beauty, softness with wildness.
Arctic Being retreat is built on years of experience in creating meaningful, high-quality experiences for travelers and retreat guests. Our guests consistently praise the calm, care, and authenticity we bring into every detail—from nourishing meals to heartful guidance.
You’ll be guided by us, Minna and Elina, two Finnish sisters combining skills in yoga, therapy, coaching, and wilderness guiding. We’ve hosted many retreats together—but this one opens a new door.
If your heart says yes to: • Real connection • Simplicity and presence • A deep pause in nature • A return to your true self …then we would love to welcome you.
Only six women. Only one week. Only this summer!
Let the stillness of the Arctic speak to you.
With warmth, Minna & Elina

Know before you go
Welcome to Arctic Sky, Saariselkä:
Your retreat begins at the edge of the Urho Kekkonen Natonal Park. Arctic Sky offers all the comforts: cozy bedrooms, a crackling fireplace, a well-equipped kitchen, and a hybrid sauna—set amidst the silent beauty of Lapland’s forests.
Yoga sessions take place in a cozy shala, while meals are shared in a traditional Finnish kota hut around an open fire.
Arctic Sky, Saariselkä is your soft landing before we venture into the wild heart of Lake Inari.
The Lake Inari Wilderness Resort:
A rare opportunity to enter one of Finland’s most untouched landscapes—a world of vast waters, ancient forests, and complete stillness.
After a 100 km drive from Arctic Sky and one-hour boat journey, we arrive at our lakeside sanctuary. Life here is simple and elemental. Shared twin-room cabins are modest and cozy, without running water and with limited electricity. We use outdoor toilets, carry lake water to wash at the sauna, and share the joy of simple, mindful living. Some meals may be prepared together.
In this beautiful setting, you’ll slow down. Each day offers gentle movement, foraging, reflection, and meaningful rest.
Please notice, that nature in all its forms may be present here - insects, wind, starry nights and if we get lucky, even the aurora borealis! All part of nature’s charm.
The participants are not insured by the organizer. We recommend that you take a travel insurance.
What do I need to bring?
We always offer the bedlinen, bath towels, yoga mats and equipments plus the final cleaning up service. Please pack your favourite comfy indoor and outdoor outfits including warm shoes, plus your personal hygiene items and other important belongings with you. Even if your belongings are most definitely safe here, we do not recommend to take any of your expensive jewelries with you. You probably won`t need them anyway here in the wilderness.
In case of traveling by plane please always check the baggage rules and regulations from your airline.
