On the advanced fasting course, we build upon our experiences from the beginner's course. Therefore, participation in the advanced fasting course requires that you have completed the beginner's course.
This year, for the first time, it takes place at my own location, Eriksen Institute, Langdyssevej 5, Østerholm, 6430 Nordborg. Right next to the beautiful Nørreskov and close to the sea. I am incredibly excited to welcome you to my newly renovated venue.
It is once again a week-long intensive course where:
- Every day, you, along with other participants, embark on longer walks and hikes in the beautiful nature.
- You find yourself in beautiful surroundings characterized by tranquility, silence, high ceilings, and delightful nature.
- You completely unwind and de-stress. You get revitalized and recharge your batteries.
- You are pampered daily with relaxation, yoga, meditation, massage, and foot baths.
- Based on a holistic understanding, you gain knowledge about the latest research and practices in health psychology topics – body, nutrition, psychology.
- Towards the end of the fasting, you have the opportunity to undergo a cleansing liver and gallstone treatment.
- You discover your core with peace, self-awareness, joy, humor, and laughter.
- You expand your brain capacity, improve your health quality, and enhance your overall well-being.
- You invest in yourself, your well-being, your self-worth, your integrity, and your happiness.
- You fast and detox for five days with organic vegetable broth, herbal teas, and freshly pressed vegetable juices.
- You gain so much physical and mental surplus, self-awareness, and energy that it defies both the law of Jante and perhaps even gravity.
- You learn about stress management, unwavering resilience, well-being, and self-leadership from the world champions: the body and nature.

"This year, I decided to push the boundaries and complete a week of advanced fasting with Helen. Long, daily, wonderful walks in the breathtaking natural surroundings, combined with liver-cleansing practices and deep conversations about everything that arose within us, made this week truly special. It carried me smoothly and securely into a transformative period in my own life, where I stand firm and confidently anchored. Cleansed of previous doubts and resistance to revealing something deeper within myself.
Helen is our brilliant, loving, gentle, and supportive guide to the domains that concern ourselves – and also a big thank you for the delicious lemon water, warmth, and care. I will be back!"

"I participated in the advanced fasting course in 2016, and it was a truly good experience. My need for stillness, movement, rest, good company, and nourishment were well taken care of. We walked in the most beautiful nature. I felt to a large extent that I was on a beautiful summer vacation in the best company. Many thanks for a renewing and life-affirming experience."
Kristin
"My body and mind are profoundly affected by stillness. I can hear and feel myself—an all too rare encounter in everyday life. It happens from within through fasting and brief meditations. From the outside through the stay and walks in beautiful landscapes. I'm not sure how it works, but I'm sure I need to go again!"
