in swedish/på svenska
FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
The festival offers a dedicated family program with fun things to do for children and teens who can participate without their parents; song, music, dance, creative activities, excursions in the forest, sports, games, yoga and more.
The area around Ängsbacka is safe and lovely for kids to explore. Here you can enjoy a deeply nourishing holiday for body, soul and heart.
BEING AUTHENTIC
As we believe in the uniqueness of each individual and respect the different paths that we all walk upon, we want to invite as many different flavors as possible to this great happening.
The festival is also a possibility to face our fears and transcend them into awareness and love.
We invite our shadow sides to be shown to us and embraced by us, as we see it as an important part of being authentic and whole as humans. Then we can take responsibility for what we feel and need instead of expecting the outer world to take care of it.
WELCOME TO ÄNGSBACKA
At Ängsbacka you get the opportunity to enjoy an experience with body, mind, and heart. Here you can meet friends for life! Come and be part of the lovely community atmosphere that you soon find yourself immersed in.
HEARTY NOURISHMENT
The festival area is situated in abundant nature with surrounding forests, a majestic garden and lakes nearby to swim on hot days.
If you’re longing for a home-made yummy cake or raw treats you are welcome to the Ängsbacka Café! The cafe offers a cosy and comfortable place. Enjoy a coffee, tea, golden milk, smoothie, drinks, chocolate, raw food goodies and more. The café is definitely an Ängsbacka highlight!
When you’re ready to wind down after a long day you can enjoy take a steamy rest in the large wood-heated sauna.
SHARING
Sharing is a meditation practised every day at Ängsbacka. You will be divided into groups where each person will have about 6–8 min to share.
Sharing is a listening meditation and when its your time, you listen inwards and share from that space, whatever is alive within. The others will be fully attentive and listen. And when its your time to listen, do so with full presence. Do not give input, feedback or comments. Just be present.
Everything that is said in the sharing group, stays in the sharing group..
Whether it is your first time at Ängsbacka…
or your have been here many times,
we invite you this Summer to a
JOURNEY OF A LIFETIME!
Step into this adventure together with us!

Theme for the Festival 2018
Let Love Rule
“ It’s time to take a stand
Brothers and sisters join hands
We got to let love rule. ”
– Lenny Kravitz
Can you remember a time when acted out of love instead of ego, anger or fear? What was the effect, how did it feel inside? A warmth spreading, energy rising, a feeling of ease and clarity?
Maybe all we long for in the world is love, and maybe every argument, every fight and war is about us wanting love. It might not be so obvious, but underneath is the longing for love and safety.
The “love shift” starts within us. When we can be allowing and loving towards ourselves, then we can’t help but spread love to the world as well.
To let love rule is about choosing the love version of ourselves, loving whatever arises, including shadows and all kinds of feelings.
To let love rule can be an active choice, with determination and focus – not always the easiest way out, but the most rewarding one.
To let love rule doesn’t mean we have to be all holy macaroni, but instead enjoy who we really are, daring to live from the heart.
“ I have decided to stick with love. ”
– Martin Luther King
“ Where there is love there is life. ”
– Mahatma Gandhi
Love is not selective, only accepting our good sides and actions. Love is all inclusive. So love will not choose, the choice is ours. Let’s find out – what happens when we choose love…
Welcome to the No Mind Festival 2018 – Let Love Rule!

THEME for the Festival 2019
POWER OF INTENTION
“Intention is the starting point of every dream.”
– Deepak Chopra
“The most essential ingredient in creating our universe is the consciousness that observes it.”
– Lynne McTaggart
No Mind Festival can simply be about having a blast – we can dance, sing and play, relax in stillness, feel everything and fall in love, meet other people and just hang out as we are. For many first-timers it’s a revelation of how amazing it can be to come together and be vibrantly alive.
We can also ask ourselves – why are we here? What is our deeper intention – at the festival and in our lives?
Working with intention also confronts us with how much happiness, joy and success we can take in life. Also how honest we dare to be. It might be that we have to exercise walking our truth and our happiness-muscle.
This week is our playground to explore just being who we are and what drives us from within. Connecting with our inner knowing and what’s important for us here and now.
“When you or anyone or anything asks, it is given.”
– Abraham Hicks

Children & Youth Festival
in swedish/på svenska
No Mind – All generations
Ängsbacka’s summer festivals have always been popular among parents and children. At No Mind we invite you to a rich program for children, youth, parents… and adults who want to get closer to their inner child.
Here the family has the opportunity to socialize with each other and with other families in a new way, in a relaxed and safe environment. The family gets a much needed break from everyday routines and stress and can get to know new sides of each other.
Read Malina Arps blog about being a child – and later a mother at Ängsbacka
Children’s Village – a place where all ages come together
Children’s Village is located in the center of the festival area, between the cafe and garden. Here the children are given their rightful place; centrally in life, society and the festival. The Children’s Village offers room for play, rest, storytelling and creative expression. It´s a safe place for all families where Anna Elheim has put together a truly amazing program for children, youth and their parents who have a longing for being physically active during the week.
Volleyball, martial arts, rounders, No Mind soccer tournament, parkour and other fun things will be offered. For the smallest ones, we have a trained pre-school staff and a magical guest who comes every day and finds adventure with the kids, sometimes a super woman, sometimes a fairy or perhaps a clown. We have many adventures in the forest where we play, explore and build. In addition, we have a Creativity Tent with various workshops every day.
During specific times each day we offer childcare for children over 4 years. This is a fun, creative and safe place where parents can leave their children while they attend workshops and take care of themselves for a few hours. We strive to have staff who speak both English, Swedish, Danish and Norwegian so that most of the kids can be understood and we can meet their needs.
Toddlers & Babies
For children under 4 years old we have our own “No Mind babies” area, a nice place for parents to be with their children and meet other parents. (Note: This is not babysitting for children under 4 years.)
Children’s Village is open to all children and parents to socialize, play, paint, sing, tell stories, wrestling in the grass, meet new friends, and everything else related to the festival experience..
Youth (13-18 years old)
No Mind also offers an engaging program for young people. In various exercises and workshops, we create community and the opportunity for personal growth. Of course there is also the opportunity to just be and keep up with new and old friends.
Young people are welcome to also be volunteers. Participation in a volunteer group can be an opportunity to experience how it is to take responsibility and contribute, as well as provide a valuable experience of community. If you are interested, please contact volunteer coordinators at volunteer@angsbacka.se.
Accommodation
The festival ticket includes camping space on Ängsbackas beautiful green camping field. Bring your own tent. For a supplement you can book single, double and dormitory beds.
Wonderful Mangenbaden which lies 10 km from Ängsbacka with its beautiful long sandy beach and cottage rentals can be a great option for families with children.
Ängsbacka’s Delicious Food
All meals are included in the festival ticket! During the festival we serve vegetarian breakfast, lunch and kids-friendly foods.
Warmly Welcome!
Do you have suggestions for activities for your children and/or teenagers? Do you have questions about the program? Please contact us ♥

EN TRANSFORMERANDE UPPLEVELSE
No Mind är Skandinaviens största alternativa festival – en transformerande upplevelse som ger oss möjligheten att öppna våra hjärtan, komma ner i kroppen och landa i närvaro och gemenskap bortom åsikter och tankar.
Denna veckolånga festival tar plats mitt i den vackra svenska naturen och har under 20 års tid samlat omkring 1000 personer årligen.
No Mind erbjuder ett fantastiskt program av workshops, konserter, ceremonier och happenings inom andlighet, personlig utveckling, dans och rörelse, meditation, shamanism, yoga, intimitet, kreativitet och mer…
Över 70 inspirerande workshopledare, artister och musiker från hela världen är med oss och delar sina passioner.
Kom med din familj, med vänner eller på egen hand. På No Mind kan du koppla av precis som du är, och känna dig hemma i dig själva och med andra.
No Mind Festival video
för hela familjen
Festivalen erbjuder ett gediget familjeprogram med roliga saker att göra för barn och tonåringar, så att de kan delta utan sina föräldrar. Här finns sång, musik, dans, kreativa aktiviteter, utflykter i skogen, sport, lekar, yoga och mycket mer…
Området kring Ängsbacka är tryggt och härligt för barn att utforska.
ATT VARA AUTENTISK
Lärarna, artisterna och musikerna kommer för att guida dig och inspirera dig till att komma hem till dig själv. Men också för att få dig att smälta in i gemenskap och bli mer medveten, kärleksfull, äkta och kraftfull.
No Mind bjuder in oss alla till att fördjupa vår medvetenhet med hjälp av det kollektiva, så att vi får tillgång till den stora bilden och kan verka till nytta för alla. Vi värdesätter arbetet med att se och omfamna skuggsidorna i oss själva så att vi kan äga och integrera alla energier som rör sig i oss. På så sätt kan vi tillåta dem att komma ut på ett äkta och balanserat sätt. Festivalen kan stötta oss i att upptäcka rädslor vi har, som rör oss själva, samhället eller livet, och gå bortom dem in i firande, synkronisering, medvetenhet och kärlek.

Välkommen till Ängsbacka
På Ängsbacka får du möjlighet att njuta av en upplevelse för både kropp, själ och hjärta.
Välkommen att ta del av ett plats med många olika möten, människor, workshops och massor av god mat!
Underbar natur och näringsrik njutning
Festivalområdet ligger mitt i den värmländska naturen med omgivande skogar, en stor och vacker trädgård samt närliggande sjöar att simma i på varma dagar.
Vi erbjuder god och näringsrik vegetarisk mat tre gånger om dagen, och vårt café är fyllt med smarriga desserter, snacks och smörgåsar samt ett rikt raw food-utbud.
När du sedan är redo att varva ner efter en upplevelserik dag, kan du krypa in i vår varma och ångande vedeldade bastu.
Healingcirkel
Här erbjuds ett rikt utbud av behandlingar inom massage, healing, coaching, energiarbete och diverse olika terapier från ett urval av professionella terapeuter.
Kom och unna dig en stund bara för dig, där du får den omsorg och uppmärksamhet du behöver för att njuta av ännu mer närvaro i nuet och för att kunna ta nästa steg i livet.
Denna tjänst bokas på plats och betalning sker till terapeuten. Koordinatorn och terapeuterna till healingcirkeln kommer att meddelas så snart de har blivit bekräftade.
Sharing
Sharing är en viktig del när du kommer till Ängsbacka. Tillsammans skapar vi ett heligt utrymme för öppenhjärtat och uppmärksamt lyssnande.
En person delar i taget samtidigt som de andra sitter i tystnad och uppmärksammar den person som delar. Alla i gruppen kommer att ha lika mycket tid för dem och allt som sägs eller görs inom detta heliga utrymme stannar där, du tar med andra ord inte upp det utanför delningen.
Här kan vi integrera upplevelser genom att sätta ord på vad som sker. Det här är ett bra ställe att landa och en återkommande punkt att komma till varje dag. Och ibland en plats där vänskap för livet föds.
Oavsett om detta är din första gång på Ängsbacka…
eller om du har varit här många gånger
så välkomnar vi dig till ett
OFÖRGLÖMLIGT SOMMARÄVENTYR!
Vad finns bortom ditt “mind”?
Kom och låt oss upptäcka det tillsammans.

BARN &
UNGDOMS-
FESTIVALEN
No Mind – All generations
Ängsbackas sommarfestivaler har alltid varit populära bland föräldrar och barn. På No Mind bjuder vi in till ett rikt program för barn, ungdomar, föräldrar… och vuxna som vill komma närmare sin barnslighet.
Här får hela familjen möjlighet att umgås med varandra och med andra familjer på ett nytt sätt, i en avslappnad och trygg omgivning. Familjemedlemmarna får en välbehövlig paus från vardagsrutiner och stress och kan lära känna nya sidor av varandra.
Barnbyn – Children’s Village
Barnbyn ligger på en central plats mellan caféet och trädgården. Barnen får här sin rättmätiga plats; mitt i livet, samhället och festivalen. Här finns utrymme för lek, vila, sagoläsning och kreativt skapande. Barnbyn är för alla familjer och Anna Elheim har satt ihop en fantastiskt program för barn, ungdomar och vuxna som känner för att vara fysisk aktiva under veckan.
Volleyboll, kampsport, brännboll, No Minds fotbollsturnering, parkour och annat kul. För de minsta har vi förutom utbildad förskolepersonal på plats en magisk gäst som kommer varje dag och hittar på äventyr med barnen, ibland en superkvinna, ibland en fe eller kanske en clown. Vi har många äventyr i skogen där vi leker, utforskar och bygger. Dessutom har vi ett kreativitets-tält med olika workshops varje dag.
Under bestämda tider på för- och eftermiddagarna erbjuder vi barnpassning för barn över 4 år. Detta är en rolig, kreativ och trygg plats där föräldrar kan lämna sina barn medan de deltar i workshops och tar hand om sig själva i några timmar. Vi eftersträvar att ha personal som pratar både svenska, engelska, danska och norska för att alla barnen skall bli förstådda och möta i sina behov.
Småbarn
För barn under 4 år har vi ett eget “No mind babies”, en skön plats för föräldrar att vara tillsammans med sina barn och träffa andra föräldrar. (Ej barnpassning under 4 år). Barnbyn är öppen för alla barn och föräldrar att umgås, leka, måla, sjunga, berätta historier, brottas i gräset, möta nya kompisar, och allt annat som hör till festival upplevelsen.
Ungdomar
No Mind erbjuder även ett engagerande program för ungdomar. I olika övningar och workshops skapar vi gemenskap och möjlighet till personligt växande. Självklart finns det också möjlighet att bara vara och hänga med nya och gamla kompisar.
Boende
I festivalbiljetten ingår tältplats på Ängsbackas sköna gröna camping-äng. Medtag eget tält. Mot ett tillägg kan du boka enkelrum, dubbelrum och sovsalsplatser.
En mil från Ängsbacka ligger härliga Mangenbaden, som med sin underbara långa sandstrand och stuguthyrning kan vara ett bra alternativ för barnfamiljer.
Ängsbacka’s uppskattade mat
All mat ingår i festivalbiljetten! Under festivalen serveras vegetarisk frukost, lunch och middag och barnvänlig mat.
