Deep in the pines yet only 30 minutes from the city, there are a variety of guided meditation and yoga classes, a traditional Japanese bath, massages and body and face treatments. They’re big on sustainability and local Swedish ingredients are used to prepare the super-healthy Japanese food. For the less health-focussed there is also a dedicated sake bar. Guests wear robes and slippers for the duration of their stay which is a great leveller and adds to the relaxation. yasuragi.se

This is a brand-new venture from mindfulness king Woody Edmiston of the superyacht dynasty – he knows luxury. Plus he intrinsically understands how to reconnect you with yourself and with nature, which is why his retreats take place in the most sublime countryside. This is the ultimate mind, body and soul antidote to the trials of modern living. Woody and his team teach you how to deal with stress in a gentle way – think sound healing, meditation, nature walks and yoga sessions rather than running and spinning.
