Get a taste of my fasting course

In this online webinar, you can get a taste of what my self-indulgence and personal development fasting course entails.

"The fasting beginner's course, as it is called, but make no mistake; this is an extremely intensive course with a lot of teaching – and very short breaks. Helen teaches with body, soul, and humor everything related to the significance of diet for the body and soul – and she follows the 'walk and talk' principle by fasting herself throughout the entire course. It is a fasting course where you receive food (solely liquid food) and where you learn about lasting weight loss principles, without stepping on the scale once during the entire course – hooray for that! I never felt hungry at any point during the entire course, which was something I was nervous about before signing up. The only discomfort I experienced from fasting was a mild headache for the first 2 days, most likely due to the lack of coffee/caffeine intake.
Five months after the course, I have lost a total of 9 kilos, and I rejoice every day in following the principles we were taught in the course. I would highly recommend the course to anyone who wants to better understand themselves and their inner state, both physically and mentally – in a wonderful course with plenty of room for questions. Helen is a rock star in the field of fasting and nutrition, no doubt about it – if you want to kickstart a healthier life, I can definitely recommend this course."

A week that gives you depth and insight into yourself as a person, and into food, nutrition, meditation, and relationships.

Great gratitude for the experience. Helen’s energy, joy, and humor are truly inspiring.

Resilience and noise reduction — Helen is really onto something here.
 
During the course, Helen paints a clear picture of how a stressful everyday life, low-quality foods, and insufficient time for relaxation affect the body’s physical and psychological balance. Concrete strategies are presented for how the body can be brought back into balance—spiced with elements of Eastern philosophy regarding how the body functions. 
 
The fasting during the course, which helps de-sensitise the body toward its optimal mode, caused my long-standing back and lower back pain to disappear. In addition, my blood pressure dropped significantly. 
 
The final layer of the course illustrates the breadth of Helen’s remarkable insight, and I was, to say the least, both surprised and delighted by Helen’s references to Erwin Schrödinger (Nobel Prize–winning physicist) in a more philosophical approach to understanding the body.
 
Peter Paasch Mortensen, PhD 57 år
“A truly magical fasting course! Helen’s deep, all-encompassing knowledge and understanding of the body, nutrition, exercise and movement, detoxification, and development on the physical level—and just as much on the psychological, symbolic, imaginative, and spiritual levels—is unparalleled. During the fasting programme, every conceivable aspect of the needs of the body, the soul, and the sense of community is anticipated and met in the most gentle and caring way, with warmth and humor, beauty and color. I cycle home reborn and uplifted—and simply so happy.”

Dear sweet, funny, and very wise Helen 💚
 
Repeating something that was already a fantastic experience can be difficult… But taking part in your fasting course ‘Fast Yourself Free’ for the second time has been even more fascinating than the first. A week with you on Als, with your skilled, knowledgeable, inspiring, joyful, and contagious energy, has truly become an addiction for me 🫶 Each time, another layer is unfolded on the journey toward a healthy body and a happy soul.
 
Thank you for you, and for your generosity in sharing and giving 🍎.
 
Hugs from Gitte, and a big thank-you to Thomas for the wonderful catering and care 🥰

Carsten Jensen, revisor

Hi Helen

Thank you — I made it home, even though my body was really tired after the closing ceremony in the tipi and the meal 🙏🏻

You’ll get the extended version right away.

🌀 The beginner’s fasting course has given me greater awareness of myself, of others—and of our shared human core.

📚 More knowledge about so much — body, mind, nutrition, and life. så meget – krop, sind, ernæring og liv.

🦴 Jeg mærker led, der pludselig bevæger sig smertefrit. Min hjerne har haft stille pauser – helt uden frekvensstøj. En lethed og bevægelighed i hele kroppen, jeg ikke har kendt længe.

The feeling of fullness—just from soup, lemon water, and tea. It’s not only possible; it’s wonderful.

I sat with a strong sense of community as we sang old, fun, and memory-filled songs from the Folk High School Songbook. I started the day with a morning swim in the most wonderful seawater—thank you, swim buddy 😍

I experienced a harmonious, enriching, wonderful, and loving group. With Helen and Thomas, there is GREAT hospitality and help available for EVERYTHING.

I entered the course feeling curious—and came out with something far deeper than just knowledge about fasting.

🙏 Thank you Helen Eriksen or your warmth, insight, and guidance throughout the entire journey.

And ikke mindst TAK til alle mine fantastiske kursister – for jeres nærvær, åbenhed og fællesskab. Det gjorde hele forskellen. 💛

A fan - Susanne Skjoldborg 

Dear Helen

Thank you so much for an inspiring week in every sense—where both my psyche, my body, and my senses were in focus and positively engaged.

With you, there was time to turn my focus inward and truly sense my body—and the great work it does for me every single day.

It was a very exciting journey—and through the stay, I reached new depths. Specifically, I have since become more aware of what my body asks of me, both in terms of nutrition and in general, and that is a great gift. I now know that I play an active role in leading my cells, and I listen more attentively to my body’s messages. I have also become more aware of my organs’ calls and have formed stronger connections with them.

At the same time, I have developed a much greater awareness of my intuition and sense that it offers something different—beautiful and less dramatic—than thoughts and emotions alone. In other words, my wisdom does not come solely from knowledge, thoughts, and feelings, but very much from what I sense—and I now devote more time to that.

Heartfelt thanks for the warm and heartfelt stay with you, Helen. You are a beautifully composed human being in every way. You are at once deep, funny, straightforward, energetic—and not least a true nerd and an oracle of knowledge within health psychology. You present research-based studies from multiple perspectives—and even though we participants are rarely in doubt about your own stance ;-) you always contextualise and nuance your vast knowledge in the field, which I have great respect for. And not least, you are a truly dedicated and passionate force within what you believe in.

I now understand and see the idea behind fasting—and I will definitely practice it going forward. 

Many loving regards Lene Soelberg

“The beginner’s fasting course is one of the best things I have ever done for myself. I was very surprised by the many positive physical changes. Among other things, all joint pain and sore spots disappeared. I felt lighter and happier. I signed up because I had never tried fasting before and wanted support and expert guidance—and that is exactly what you get with Helen. None of the participants were hungry during the course, which was something I personally had been anxious about. The concept is thoroughly tested and optimised, and you truly take a great deal of knowledge home with you. The physical setting is fantastic and characterised by very high quality. This high quality permeates everything—nothing is spared! I can warmly recommend the course and am already looking forward to next time.”

Mette

“The best thing I have ever done for myself was to take part in a fasting course with Helen Eriksen. I have gained so much energy and am filled with a sense of surplus—both mentally and physically.

I had never fasted before and often felt unwell when I got hungry, so I was a bit sceptical about fasting for an entire week—but all of that was completely disproven. I had a wonderful week of self-care and self-insight, without hunger, in very safe and supportive surroundings. Afterwards, it has felt completely natural to implement new eating habits in favour of a healthier lifestyle, so this is definitely not the last time I will participate.”

Heidi Knudsen

“After several years of hesitation, I took part in the Beginner’s Fasting Course—and I haven’t regretted it for a single second!

The fasting course is quite simply a gift to myself that keeps on giving. And incredibly enough, it’s not only giving to me—but also to those around me!

I have always lived a very active life, with everyday routines filled with children, work, volunteer activities, lectures, political engagement, board meetings, and many other commitments that I felt were important to support. In short, I spent most of my time on others—and far too little time on myself and my well-being. In all the busyness, I failed to notice that my body and sense of balance had gradually gone off course and were running on overload. An extra cup of coffee, a bit more sugar, and a little less sleep—and I could probably still manage it all, even though I was feeling a bit pressed for time. 

I could sense that it was time to give myself a bit more attention, so this year I treated myself to a one-week beginner’s fasting course at Eriksen Instituttet at Skovgården on Als.

In beautiful, beautiful surroundings, located right next to one of Denmark’s longest coastal forests, I stepped into a week filled to the brim with everything my body and awareness needed. Wonderful morning movement, relevant and engaging teaching, meditation, and plenty of fresh air and long walks. 

After a week, I returned home ‘totally detoxed’ and wiser. My balance, presence, and attentiveness were quickly noticed by those closest to me. 

In addition, in the aftermath of the course, I keep having one aha moment after another. I no longer fall asleep on the sofa, and I don’t get tired when driving long distances in the car—so I no longer need to pull over at the nearest petrol station for coffee and sugar just to stay awake.

With clarity and a deep sense of balance, I can give my very best recommendations for Helen’s beginner fasting courses. Helen is both funny, sharp, and highly skilled—and she is simply a brilliant communicator. 

Bonus info: The best part is that this will probably be the only time you have to pay for the course yourself. The year after, your family will almost certainly be ready to pay for another one for you ;-)"

"I feel fantastic after a week at the beginner's fasting course with Helen Eriksen. I have learned more in this week about the connection between diet, body, and mind than by reading countless books over the last 5-6 years. Helen has provided me with entirely new knowledge and insight in the most exciting, empathetic, and entertaining way, and has tirelessly been available for detailed questions.

The companionship and intimacy with 13 other like-minded participants have been SO inspiring. In a way, I have seen myself through the eyes of others, while throughout the week, I have worked on finding my own values and tried to sense what makes me happy. I hope that I have also been able to give my fellow participants a bit of inspiration in return.

The day after returning home, I have already signed up for the next course because I just have to experience this again.

Thank you once again for an almost 'life-changing' fasting week ❤️"

Helle

"I have just completed Helen Eriksen's 'Fasting Course 1'. Years ago, I also participated in this course, and it had positive, life-changing results for my life: Before the course, I had a somewhat strained relationship with food, always being thin, and knowing that if I didn't eat all the time, I would feel unwell, get nauseous, get headaches, etc. To my great surprise, I went through the fasting course without experiencing these symptoms once—and haven't had them since!

After the fasting course, I felt SO clean—light in body and soul.

This year's fasting course was also a wonderful experience, a 'life-energy injection': Helen's unpretentious and engaging teaching on how the body and its organs are best supported through diet—lovely morning yoga—massage—companionship with lovely 'co-participants'—all in all, a wonderful experience for both body and soul.

I have already signed up for the advanced course."

Gitte

"Everyday life has caught up with me with frequent travel and meeting activities where flights and hotels are frequented at record speed.

However, thinking, eating, and living are done in a completely new way. I have established a connection with my body that provides well-being and harmony. The diet has been changed, and new habits are emerging while old ones are unlearned. The transition process is well underway. So, despite the hustle and bustle, I have gained inner peace, new energy, and a bonus that comes with weight loss. So, thank you, Helen!

I have started and restarted the journey to a so-called "healthier life" many times throughout my life. It has often remained with good intentions. Necessary determination in implementation was weakened by the "good" objections, excuses, and explanations.

Now, at the age of 67, I run my own consultancy with long working days and short nights. I began to seriously feel that my work and lifestyle needed to change. So, when a good colleague mentioned Helen Eriksen and her fasting program, I became curious. And at lightning speed, I signed up along with my wife. The best decision I have ever made.

And what an investment!

After listening to Helen's introduction of herself, program overview, and stories from her long and extensive practice, I was highly motivated for "Fast deg fri - finn inn til din kjerne" (Fast yourself free - find your core) from the very beginning. I intuitively felt that I had found the right process to kickstart my transformation. Now it was just a matter of entering the bubble and letting myself be guided.

The fasting program also included yoga and meditation every day. After Helen's lectures, I suddenly understood the exploitation and danger I had subjected my body to.

Received a 'wake-up warning' that hit me well in the solar plexus. And at that moment, I realized that this journey would be more transformative for me than I had thought in advance.

This time, I heard no disturbing inner voices with their excuses, explanations, or objections.

Helen's health psychological lectures were an experience in themselves. Very well pedagogically structured, where stories and practical experiences bubbled up as from an inexhaustible source. With an engagement and enthusiasm that infected us, the participants. We were eight in total, and Helen created a nice atmosphere in the group, creating good group dynamics among us.

Five days with vegetable broth, miso, lemon water, green tea, yoga sessions, meditation, inspiring and informative lectures, a stroll on the beach, colon cleansing, and intestinal massage left their mark both in the soul and body.

The days were filled with the fixed program points, and our excellent course leader just overflowed with knowledge, experience, stories, and metaphors that made a healthy diet and green lifestyle both fun, motivating, and, most importantly, meaningful.

The course and program come highly recommended, and Helen effectively but motivatingly conveys the message that what I am looking for, I must find within myself.

The various activities of the program also contributed to an inner calm that was new to me.  

So, even though I haven't become an entirely new person, I have at least become a better version of myself.

After 5 days of fasting, my wife and I are brimming with energy. It's just bubbling with initiative to start our new lives. Body and mind are in sync.

The big challenge will be facing everyday life. The stay has definitely done something to us in different ways. What the result will be, only time will tell."

Gunnar Sæthre

"The year is soon coming to an end. And one of the things I think back on the most is my stay with you this summer. 

It meant and means a lot to me. 

What is immediately noticeable about me is that I have lost 18 kg. This is thanks to your dietary guidance and advice. And therefore, a change in diet. What I also took away from the stay is the importance of treating one's organs "properly." 

But also mentally, I have gained a lot - in terms of thoughts. 

Before I came to you, I had been taking blood pressure medication for six months - I don't take it anymore, as it is not necessary. 

You simply "managed" to show me the way to "a new life." 

When I use the word "managed," it is meant positively. You are an amazing person - giving, knowledgeable, good-humored, and incredibly warm. It's incredible that such a petite lady like you can contain so much.

Thank you very much for everything. 

I must warn you - it certainly won't be the last time I sign up for one of your courses."

Lene Kjærulff

"I let go of the phone, meetings, the internet, TV, decisions, input, output, and even the fictional book I thought would be part of a relaxing week in the countryside. With the course, I had accepted that even food was entirely released.
Fasting was crucial for the outcome, but it was only one piece of the puzzle.

Body, mind, soul found peace to be present in themselves.
Yet it wasn't relaxation - passive and vegetative.

It was active purification and insistence on tranquility.

I breathed - my breath - felt my living body - myself, my emotions, and my life.

The experience was shared with a small group of strangers - would it have been stronger solo?
No, in meeting others, I encounter aspects of myself.

It was crucial for the effective and positive experience that it was all framed with loving professional authority by Helen Eriksen.
Filled structured days with a clear purpose. It wasn't a vacation. It was much better!" Det var ikke ferie. Det var meget bedre!”

Tina Pipa, DR Archive Manager 

"The fasting seminar with Helen was a profound and joyful experience that exceeded my expectations. Her 30 years of personal experience with fasting, combined with a background in psychology, nutrition, and physiotherapy, instilled confidence and laid the foundation for a relaxing week.

Even though it might sound sad to refrain from eating for five days, it was a surprisingly pleasant experience for me, largely without discomfort or drama; on the contrary, in fact.

I returned home with a sense of being cleansed, strengthened, and more aware and responsive to my body. Last but not least, I felt deeply inspired by Helen's clarity and approach to life. If you have considered participating in the fasting seminar, I highly recommend it."

Julian Noyce, Publisher, UK

"How is it possible to have fun and be life-affirming when not eating for an entire week? My answer is Helen Eriksen.

Helen is good company, a competent instructor – and a safe and generous host.

Thanks for an educational and enjoyable week."

Kristin Birkeland

"A fasting week with Helen is a delightful break from everyday life - where time slows down, and you are invited to a rare meeting with yourself, where inner peace and deeper insights can unfold. When we have an opportunity to recharge, we typically also notice nuances in our lives that the pace of everyday life had obscured.

A beautiful, atmospheric, meaningful, and powerful combination of fasting, yoga, massage, meditation, and the super exciting presentations by Helen Eriksen make me highly recommend the course to anyone in need of a retreat week focusing on their own body and soul."

Nina Lei

“Fastekurset hos Helen var en fantastisk oplevelse i smukke omgivelser. Det var en super kombination af faste, blid yoga, afslapning og fagligt input. Der var virkelig kredset om detaljen. Jeg følte mig i trygge hænder. Det var meget fascinerende, hvordan kroppen reagerer så positivt på ikke at spise i fem dage. Jeg kan varmt anbefale at faste hos Helen.”

Ruth Geisler

"When I look back on the year 2016, there are some experiences that stand out clearly. One of the most important is my fasting course with Helen.

I have gained a deeper understanding of the processes in my body, my diet has changed, and I have lost weight. But most importantly, I experienced being able to stop taking my blood pressure medication. Medication I had been taking for 20 years.
I will definitely return.

My best recommendations."

Architect Jette Tømmerup

“The fasting week was a life-time experience in itself. It was a week of emptying one’s personal waste bin, replenishing batteries, clearvoyance, reflecting about oneself without getting lost thanks to good guidance, phantastic company, respect and appreciation. Anyone truly wanting to do good to him- or herself should sign up and look forward to the experience.”

Babette Pfander, Switzerland

"When I look back on 2013, one week stands out. It was the week with Helen and the other participants, which, for me, distinguished itself as the most beautiful, heartwarming, unique, and meaningful experience of the year, all concentrated in one week.

We were not held in Helen's firm hands - no, we were carried by her overwhelmingly large heart and universal wisdom, providing so much nourishment to our bodies, minds, souls, and hearts.

One single word encapsulates the experience for me, and that word is gratitude!

I cannot and do not wish to withhold my warmest and most heartfelt recommendation to anyone considering this opportunity."

Steen Oxbøll

“These days of fasting with Helen Eriksen have been an enlightening and happy experience: deep cleansing for my body, all the organs and glands, nourishing teachings and meditations, nicely balanced with joyful yoga and stretching, ending with a wonderful ending ritual. And all in a beautiful  environment. When can I sign up again?”

Matti Straub-Fischer, Chief changel and coach, Changels & Headmaster of Chaospilots, Switzerland.

"I attended Helen's fasting course in July 2014. I had long harbored a desire to participate in one of her courses. I have come to know Helen as a very competent, present, and warm-hearted instructor who manages to combine a practical and down-to-earth approach to teaching with profound wisdom of life. I chose the fasting course based on previous very positive experiences with integrating the body process with a meditative process.

The course fully met my expectations. Helen guided us through this fantastic experience with great presence and much love, where one gets very close to oneself and gains a lot of knowledge about how the body functions and the connection between psyche and body. The setting and the daily care by the entire team behind the course and the wonderful fellow participants made it an unforgettable experience.

I am ready for next year's fasting course and warmly recommend the course to everyone."

Jørgen Krogh

"Being with you during the very first week of my vacation was pure self-indulgence and 100% enjoyment. It was like being at home and at a luxury hotel at the same time: Thoughts were allowed to take a break, the practical aspects of fasting set the framework, so there was time for reflection, relaxation, and self-immersion; a pure delight for body and soul. It was exciting to look at food in a different way than in everyday life: What do the various foods do to the organs, what is especially good for me – and how does it affect me, both mentally and physically? Meditation, yoga, "meals" without food, colon cleansing, and the "homely" coziness all came together in harmony – and were combined with pleasant moments with interesting people of all ages. I also enjoyed my mornings on the bike, most days together with Jørgen, and the beautiful, beautiful surroundings. I have brought new habits home with me, such as drinking water with lemon several times a day – and I no longer chew gum, which was a silly habit that actually gave me a stomachache – which is not surprising with all the additives in it!
It was much easier to fast than I had thought – and your extensive experience and the framework made me feel completely secure about it. I was ready to continue for 3-5 more days – and maybe I will next time 🙂 Thank you so much for a thoroughly enlightening and wonderful week!" 🙂 Tusind tak til dig for en helt igennem lærerig og vidunderlig uge!” 

Birgit Bøge, Teacher and Course Leader

"Fasting is the best gift you can give yourself. I have given myself that gift twice in my life, and there will be more of these gifts to come. It can be daunting to sign up for a fasting course; it was for me the first time as well. But after the first fasting course, I was 100% sure I would do it again. If you are considering fasting with Helen, you can be completely at ease; it is very professional. The entire process is planned down to the smallest detail, with great care for each individual. Helen has extensive knowledge about the physical body, the mind, and the soul, which she imparts to us participants. The knowledge you gain from there will positively change your life.

I say thank you for a wonderful week."  

Vibeke Risum

“I slutningen af juni 2024 deltog jeg for første gang i mit liv i et 5 dage fastekursus. Det var hos Helen Eriksen på hendes smukke sted Eriksen Instituttet, Skovgården på Als.

Jeg er 72 år og har deltaget  i en del kurser/oplevelser som understøtter  vores fysiske og mentale helbred. Jeg oplevede en gennemgribende udrensning både på det ydre og indre plan og det i trygge, smukke rammer og med Helen som en meget kompetent, rummende og kærlig guide i alle dagene.

Der var en fin afveksling i løbet af dagen mellem læringsinput, meditation, wellness og ”måltider” . ”Måltiderne” blev serveret i smukke rammer med lys på bordene.

Selv tarmskylning, som jeg prøvede for første gang og som udgangspunkt var meget skeptisk overfor,, blev en fin oplevelse med Helens grundige instruktion og vejledning – Jeg kommer helt sikkert igen.”

Susanne Drewes
Pure Vision ApS, Skagen

"From August 1st to 7th, 2021, I gave myself a long-awaited gift: a fasting course with Helen Eriksen!

And what a gift for both body and soul! 

Before the course, I had never tried fasting, and I tend to become quite difficult when I don't get food, so it was with anticipation in my stomach when I arrived at the beautiful Nygård on Sunday, August 1st.

The anticipation quickly turned into calm and security under Helen's absolutely fantastic leadership, and it was with peace of mind that I lived on liquid food made from fresh and organic ingredients for the next five days. My body needed so much calm both externally and internally – and it got that. On the second and third mornings, I had the wildest nausea, but otherwise, it surprisingly went smoothly to do without solid food. The body enjoyed the calmness and responded with fantastic inner peace and extremely heightened senses on the fourth and fifth days.

Throughout the week, the days were spiced up with Helen's inspiring and educational talks about the body and the mind. I have taken a lot of good and practical knowledge home that will shape my future lifestyle.

It's amazing what such a week in good company can do!

I wish that everyone will give themselves the same gift that I gave myself. We all deserve to experience that!"
