Evening of Compassion

Amidst the winter, we gather together for an Evening of Compassion, which invites you to pause, let go, and turn to yourself with a gentle and kind attitude. During the evening, you will explore the familiar theme of mindfulness - the cultivation of a compassionate mindset. This moment is especially suitable for you, who seeks a gentle and compassionate approach to yourself as a counterbalance to constant striving. In the Evening of Compassion, you can simply be yourself, just as you are! The flow of the evening: - Grounding & Compassion Meditation (15 min) We begin by quietly settling into a short compassion meditation, sipping tea. You'll have the chance to reflect on what compassion means to you today. - Compassionate Yoga (60 min) A gentle, flowing yoga practice that nourishes the body and mind without striving. The movements open up tension and warm the body. The practice is suitable for all levels - the most important thing is to listen to your own body and move in rhythm with the breath. - Sound Bowl Relaxation (30 min) After the yoga, we sink into deep relaxation. The sound bowls will take you to a state of rest and restoration, allowing your nervous system to unwind and your body to renew. - Closing of the Evening (15 min) You can awaken gently and, if you wish, write yourself a "compassion note" to take home with you. The moment of letting go will be guided by yoga teacher and mindfulness coach Elviira Hyytiä (Master's Degree).
