OYNS for men
We are taking a break from our regular immersive retreats while Torunn is on mothers leave.
In the meantime - join OYNS for men! A unique opportunity to explore your nervous system in a group of men only.
A lighthearted and transformational retreat
Warmly welcome to a lighthearted and transformational retreat where your body is your greatest teacher.
What's it really like to be you?
Strengthen your ability to feel at the level of bodily sensation, beyond emotional labels and your old stories and intimately befriend your nervous system in its constant pendulation;
'Safe, unsafe, safe, unsafe, safe, unsafe, safe, unsafe..'
Experience an almost forgotten yet fundamental cornerstone in cultures and societies of all times: To gather as men and do our inner work.
Learn how to effectively increase awareness, enjoyment and even pleasure in the presence of any feeling.
Gently train your nervous system to handle more intensity and start to transform life's stressors into opportunities for strengthening and remembering a more original and pure YOU by going deeper into the felt sense of your body.
In a non-mystical way, experience firsthand how a safe nervous system unleashes the strength, joy, clarity, leadership and connection that your soul is hungry for!
Level up your relational skills and let your authenticity blossom and inspire yourself and those around you.
Become fully autonomous in a practical, effective and integrative breathwork meditation practice that brings bodily intelligence to a whole new level in your daily life and turns challenges into opportunities for growth .
Are you ready for a deep dive?
The essence of ancient practices including breath, sound, movement and relating applied to the individual and collective challenges of the modern world.
You will learn an integrative circular breathing method that, when combined with detailed awareness, provides access to your body at deeper and more subtle levels.
Increased body awareness and increased capacity to be OK with what you are feeling is a powerful path to lower your baseline level of stress and a root cause solution to heal trauma, expand consciousness and increase health and vitality in every cell of your organism.
It may sound banal but to fundamentally feel more at peace in your own body lets every cell in your body go from survival mode to growth mode, shifting your whole experience of being you; boosting your capacity to be open and receptive to the world around you so you can more fully and freely express, connect and enjoy this life!
Present moment body awareness in connection.
Everyday we explore the relational field, in pairs, small groups or collectively. We bring increased body awareness and increased curiosity and receptivity of what it's like to be in connection, moment to moment.
As opposed to coming with tips, assumptions and intellectual reflections and concepts, we reveal the present moment impact we have on each other; continually being curious of how our experience subtly shifts.
Our nervous system's perception of safety in connection increases dramatically and as we feel seen and heard like never before, we start accessing our unique wisdom and the life force within us spontaneously starts self-organizing towards greater health and vitality.
The retreat is held by the knowledgeable, experienced, compassionate and playful facilitator Robbin van der Crussen.
