Medieval Herbalism | Folksong & Storytelling | Tea Ceremony | Sword Yoga | Transformational Breathwork
Are you struggling with the demands of modern life?
Perhaps working in front of a computer has left you feeling disconnected from your sense of self and the world around you?
We were never meant to live this way.
At Skogsdimma Gatherings, we draw upon folklore and historical research to explore how past societies interacted with other humans and nature.
Through workshops in embodied movement, storytelling and herbal medicine, we explore how past practices, combined with modern wellness practices, can enrich modern lives and reignite the spark of magic and joy that yearns to burn within our hearts.
Come join our next gathering and reclaim the magic in your life.

Words from past attendees:
Breathwork
I felt comfortable with Aldis as she led the session. She has a sincerity along with a casual air that helped me feel able to really let go and release. Thank you for the safe space and guiding me through a very intense and educational experience.
Breathwork
Aldis's session helped me access and express emotions that I didn't know I was still feeling. It felt very safe and light, despite the heaviness in my brain. Thank you!
Breathwork
I couldn't have asked for better guidance. I felt comfortable throughout. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to try out breathwork, as Aldis is such a considerate person and perfect to guide you safely and comfortably through your session.

Someone once told me I couldn't decide what type of fairy I was, because I was all of them.
Today I think that might be true.
I am a musicologist with a background in Old Norse and Anglo-Saxon literature. I am also a historical re-enactor and spend my summers living as a Viking at Storholmen Viking Village, kulning, singing songs around the campfire and teaching historical uses of plant medicine to visitors.
I also have a strong passion for wellness practices. In 2025-2026, I trained in transformational breathwork, modern herbalism and sacred business with Nina Medicina through her Wild Bloom/Embodied Spaceholder program. I am also a certified yoga and aerial yoga instructor.
Skogsdimma Gatherings was born of a dream to create wellness offerings that entertain and educate people about the past, whilst simultaneously enriching their present and offering opportunities for deeper layers of insight into their own lives.
