What do you discover in the silence?

Newsletter from Tijs Breuer, Neptune Wellbeing, January 2022

This week I am required in isolation. On New Year's Eve it turned out that I had contracted the latest variant of Corona. So, forced by the situation, I go back to myself, in peace, in silence. My first reaction: that sucks. Everything I planned has to be put aside, appointments cancelled, both work and private. And then comes the realization: although I would rather feel a bit fitter with it, it is actually a gift from heaven!

Allowing myself to really go into silence is a great gift that I never gave myself before. And now I can wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone. In silence I can be completely present with what is going on inside me. I can experience what really touches me, my soul stirrings. I see my shadow, my pain, old sorrow, shame and self-reproach. And I smile at it, I embrace those parts of myself that I don't have to hide anymore. I train myself to align with myself deep down. I listen to the aches, tingles and energy flow in my body. I feel what is important to my heart. This way I get to know myself even better. 

What do you discover in the silence? Also take the time to come to myself!

This year I'm organizing four days of silence. You are cordially invited to give yourself the gift of silence, along with me and others. We will be quiet all day, aware of our breath, taking moments for ourselves, meditating and listening to the silence. You can arrive at 9.30:12.30 AM, 15.30:2022 PM or XNUMX:XNUMX PM and stay as long as you like. You can also participate online, from your own living room. I wish you a precious and loving XNUMX!

Effectiveness of massage proven
Unfortunately, massages are not allowed during the current lockdown. Through my trade association NGS I found out that treatments with a medical character can continue. So if you have complaints that can be remedied or relieved with a certain form of massage, this is a reason for an exception to the massage ban. Some examples of scientifically proven positive effects of massage:
Irritable Bowels (PBS);
Parkinson's disease;
Stress en Burnout symptoms;
Pelvic floor complaints
Mindfulness against feelings of depression
Learning to live mindfully is a central theme in the essence coaching en pensions whom I accompany. Last year I helped many people to deal with the unrest, gloom and loneliness. Evidence is growing that mindfulness helps to prevent such depressive feelings and to counteract relapse after treatment of depression. Recent research shows that especially young people benefit from this. Read more…

Tips to relax online
Everyone can go on every other week Sunday night Participate in a breath and silence meditation. Connecting with your breath can reduce stress and open the door to a healthier and more mindful lifestyle. By focusing your attention on your breathing, you immediately notice a sense of relaxation. There are many other forms of breathing meditation where you consciously listen to your breath or change the rhythm, rate, or depth of your breath. At the end there is a sub-circle. 
Dates and registration: Meetup group Embodied

Every other Sunday night I organize a movement meditation for men with self-touch. Meditation by sitting still is quite difficult for most people, because we are used to being exposed to stimuli all day long, while your body needs exercise. Movement meditation ensures that you quickly regain your peace and focus more inwardly. You make an inner journey through an alternation of intensive and subtle movement.
Dates and registration: Meetup group MeninTouchNL.

My daughter Eva Breuer gives every tuesday night from 20:30 to 21:30 a nice yoga class for all levels, consisting of meditation, breathwork and movement. With meditation we calm the mind and bring ourselves into the present moment. With breathwork we reactivate and balance our pranic body (energy field), releasing the trapped energy so that our life force can flow freely again. With movement (hatha yoga, vinyasa and yin yoga, shaking, dancing) we bring that energy flow throughout our body, stretching, letting go, relaxing and restoring our physical health. 
Dates and registration: Meetup group Embodied.

My colleague Mischa van Dullemen has been a dancer and has been teaching yoga since 2005. His classes are accessible, varied and playful. It gives a lot of space to adapt the exercises to your needs and possibilities. He currently offers the following classes via Zoom:
Tuesday 20.30 – 21.45: Yin Yoga (gentle stretches are held for 3 to 5 minutes so plenty of time to relax deeply).
Thursday 10.00 – 11.00 and Friday 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM: Core Yoga (emphasis on building more strength and flexibility in your back, abdomen, buttocks and hips).
Sunday 9.30 – 10.45: Yang and Yin (first half of the class is active, second half relaxed stretching).

Meetups for men
Touching is healthy. It ensures that your happiness hormones oxycotine, serotonin and dopamine are released and stress hormones such as cortisol decrease. Men are sometimes a bit insecure about touching each other, but many are also curious about it, especially to experience this in a safe, defined environment and with careful guidance. MeninTouchNL

's meetups MeninTouchNL offer men the opportunity to become familiar with all kinds of contact and touch in a relaxed, safe and playful environment.
