Sharing of Bhakti - as I worship so I become
“When we reach out and give love, that brings out the loving person in us”
- Swami Dayananda Saraswati from the text Discovering Love-
Bhakti is the LOVE that lives inside every human, and that exists in and through all the yogic disciplines. Being loved is my nature as a human being. I am loved by the universe. Yet, life comes with challenges, unexpected hindrances and layers of self- ignorance. To clearly see and feel that we ourselves are the Love that we seek is challenging. When we meet in these circles of Bhakti, we practice to come back to this truth: LOVE IS MY NATURE.
KIRTAN // DEVOTIONAL SINGING
When Kirtan we gather to explore the ancient art of devotional singing. This is a practice where we are given the tools to alchemize our reality through sound, sacred mantras, and persistently flowing with the current that arises as we sing and express ourselves.
The focus is not on having a beautiful voice, but to free your voice from all expectations and to let yourself be unlimited. The sound journey can bring an ocean of emotions, inside and out, and in this practice you are welcomed to stay with these emotions. Feelings of acceptance, harmony, peace and connection are common as we balance the heart energy. The songs that we share are from different traditions, and we give you lyrics and guidance on the way.
Together with my beloved Magnus Jonas, we share the opportunity of Sunday Kirtan at Northern Light Yoga in Oslo (covid paused).

VOICE EMPOWERMENT TO HEART EXPANSION
I offer sweet sessions of voice empowerment to help you explore your voice as a gateway to open your physical and emotional body. As you start to activate your power from within through hearing and feeling your own voice, the energy rises and releases stagnant emotions. This practice is not designed to make you sing beautifully (off course that can be a side effect), but a practice to free your voice from all expectations and blockages to express your true self. Like a child we invoke our natural curiosity, looking for magic and love to rise within us.
Sessions will consist of gently moving your body to enhance the flow of energy, breath awareness, toning, and chanting mantras.
Investment for 1 hour private online session is 1008 NOK.
