Sacred Womb Festival
Rising Womanhood​
A space to explore and celebrate the holistic and multidimensional
nature of womanhood
​
May 7 – May 11, 2025
Since 2017, Sacred Womb Festival has been hosted every year at Ängsbacka, welcoming women from all walks of life
to connect, unwind, learn, inspire,
and celebrate the holistic nature of their womanhood.
​
Sacred Womb Festival stands as a platform for Rising Womanhood.
A gathering to educate women about the potential of their bodies,
to expand their minds, help them heal their hearts
and re-connect them with the innate sexual wholeness.
Sacred Womb Festival strives to empower, elevate
and educate the sisterhood.
Intentions
Empower
​
This festival seeks to empower women to reconnect with their inner strength and to embrace the fullness of what it means to be a woman in today’s society.
Let us encourage every woman, regardless of age, profession, belief system or origin, to reclaim her voice and fulfill her potential.
Elevate
​
Sacred Womb Festival works with the vision to create a space where all women
feel safe and inspired to be authentic,
to see each other for the powerful, resourceful beings that we are.
An embodied experience of sisterhood and togetherness where we are welcome to nurture old and new connections, to cooperate, to motivate each other and ourselves to grow and evolve.
Educate
​
At the heart of the festival lies learning. We come together to learn from each other and from the teachers and experts who share ancient and modern knowledge and practices to bring us into deeper alignment with our bodies, nature and each other.
The festival offers wisdom that works and will support women with the challenges and reality of everyday life in the 21st century.
Is this festival for me?
​Answer this simple question, am I a woman?
If your answer is yes, our answer is YES!
​
Many women feel isolated and lonely in their everyday lives. No longer having the circles of support that women held for each other in ancient times through life’s transitions and challenges. We face many demands from the world and often place unreasonable expectations on ourselves.
Many of us struggle with competition, comparison, and even anxiety in closeness with other women.
​
The deepest wish with this festival is to make women feel safe and welcome in each other’s company.
​
To restore trust and hope within the sisterhood and show a way towards a holistic approach to femininity. Sacred Womb Festival offers a wide variety of workshops, lectures and experiences that will empower you as a woman.
The program is built to nurture the heart, body, mind, soul and spirit equally.

​
Something deep and profound happens when women come together.
We have seen it year after year.
We relax, and open to the wisdom that resides deep within the feminine psyche. We look at each other and no longer see “you” or “me”.
What we see is the WE.
And WE are no longer alone. WE are held, and loved and seen.
WE can make a difference.
WE can support each other, our families and communities. WE can see the light in each other’s eyes and not shy away.
All of you is welcome.
