We invite you to a gentle yet powerful 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 and intimately befriend your nervous system in its constant pendulation;
'Safe, unsafe, safe, unsafe, safe, unsafe, safe, unsafe..'
Learn how to effectively increase awareness, enjoyment and even pleasure in the presence of any feeling.
Train your system to handle more intensity and use life's challenges as opportunities to wake up and heal by going deeper into the felt sense of your body.
Experience how a safe nervous system unleashes the authenticity, joy, clarity and connection that your soul is hungry for!
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.
"The way the sessions are guided and held by Robbin and Torunn feels super natural and welcoming, as they both live and breathe what they teach. The way they complement each other makes for a diverse, musically delicious and super insightful retreat experience."
- Elias
THE WORKSHOPS
BREATH OF FREEDOM
Be safe in your body, be safe in the world
2 hour workshop
Welcome to a lighthearted and playful breathwork meditation. Using the breath to increase body awareness while simultaneously increasing relaxation is a potent way of regulating the nervous system as it lets us befriend and integrate unconscious emotional material in an embodied felt experience.
When we connect with ourselves in this intimate and curious way, we lay the foundation for connecting with others - an essential ingredient for the future of human beings.
Lay down, tuck yourself in, and let the fundamental pleasure of simply being alive reveal itself through experiencing yourself as a vital body booming with life moment to moment, healing you frmo within, accompanied by live music and steady guidance. The practice is suitable for everybody, as you will learn how to adjust the intensity according to your own capacity.
RELATIONAL ALIVENESS
Connect with each other, wake up together
2 hour workshop
Welcome to a workshop of self exploration in connection to others. With curiosity of what is happening in your body moment to moment, you allow a deeper and more authentic connection to be revealed.
Through detailed feeling and validating of whatever comes to the surface in you as you are with others, deeper and more intricate layers of human connection are experienced. This has profound effects on the nervous system and allows for new levels of safety and down-regulation of stress, which in turn opens up your perception of others and the world around you.
Get ready to befriend new aspects of yourself as you mirror yourself in others and empower yourself to deepen any relationship in your life.
In a playful and safe setting, this is a powerful practice in nervous system (co-)regulation
"Concrete practices that give more freedom in how I react and respond to my feelings and emotions."

"Its hard to put words to an experience like I had at OYNS. Torunn and Robbin do this retreat with such kindness, generosity, humbleness and love and their sincere urge to help people by sharing their knowledge shines through.
In addition they do it with structure and professionalism so you genuinely feel that you are taken by the hand and lead through a transformative process.
They create a safe space for you to be vulnerable and teach you tools to explore yourself and heal.
I cannot recommend this experience enough. I truly belive that anyone will come out of it as a better person, more grounded and more in touch with yourself, your body and an unmistakable, embodied understanding of your full potential and how to access it.
Thank you again Torunn and Robbin"
