Lenka & Björg are bringing a well-being package offer to Dalvík and surroundings, free for everybody, supported by Heilsueflandi Dalvíkurbyggð.
We‘re working holistically with the human systems and offer tools that can be incorporated in the daily lives of participants, supporting both mental and physical well-being. The seriesof workshops is for all those who are interested and curious to strengthen and deepen their knowledge of themselves.
We do our best to meet various language groups and are ready to offer sessions for those who speak Icelandic or English.
This course is designed in a way so that you can attend sessions independently, meaning that you can just take one or all sessions, or anything in between.
The workshop introduces Yoga Nidra, which not only calms down the central nervous system but also benefits the individual to work on symptoms of post-traumatic stress. Yoga Nidra is a powerful relaxation and meditation, which works with the central nervous system and helps the body to relax inside and out. The central nervous system is the main center of conscious and subconscious behaviour, including our automatic and non-automatic actions.
This tool enables you to be conscious, while you're in the state of dreaming and where significant healing takes place.
Powerful way to reduce stress and work through past traumas. On top of this, participants are invited to get to know various self-development tools to be used in their daily lives.
The tools are designed to help participants to connect to themselves and they can also contribute to addressing and working with trauma symptoms in an empowering way.
The sessions last for 90 minutes and the first 60 minutes are dedicated to yoga and 30 minutes to a workshop focusing on self-development tools introduction and their practice.
During yoga practice, we follow breathing exercises, soft yoga positions and we end with Yoga Nidra that prepares the body and the soul for self-development workshop part. Participants are encouraged to listen to themselves and follow their inner calling. Each participant knows best what supports their well-being and what it is they would like to incorporate in their daily routines.
