Nature Yoga & Mindfulness

Nature has a holistic impact on our well-being. Simply being in nature lowers blood pressure, reduces stress hormone levels, and improves mood. As we breathe in the clean air of nature and allow our bodies to move in a natural environment, our nervous system balances and recovers. The diverse sounds of nature, such as the murmur of water and the hum of the wind, can increase concentration and promote relaxation. Additionally, the microbiome of nature has a positive impact on our immune system, strengthening our body's natural balance.

In this nature-based yoga practice, we follow the traces of Finnish folklore and the mystical forces of nature, drawing strength from ancient mythology. The vital energy that flows through all living things – surrounds and permeates us in the forests, waters, and rock formations. We are not separate from nature; we are part of it, and it is part of us.

Through yoga, we awaken our bodies and minds to receive the presence of this väki, attuning ourselves to nature’s rhythm and its timeless wisdom through mindfulness and embodied awareness.

This practice is a journey into deep connection, where we do not merely observe nature – we experience it as an extension of ourselves. We allow our gaze to soften into the green embrace of the forest, listen to the wind as it carries the whispers of the land, feel the living earth beneath our feet, and breathe in the fresh, vital air. Nature speaks in subtle ways, and as we move and pause, we awaken our senses to receive its messages – the scent of the trees, the pulse of the land, the warmth of the sun, the cool touch of the breeze.
