Rest and Resilience Station at Waves Summit 2024
The rest and resilience station has practises that allow us to ground ourselves to here and now and to remember how connected we are to each others and to the world. We will look at how we can stand rooted even when the storm hits us. We can feel into what sensations, thoughts, and emotions want to arise and compassionately let them be.
The Rest and Resilience station is located on the second floor aula, to the right when you exit the Aalto Hall. Facilitated sessions are provided during breaks on Thursday 4.4 as well as in the mirror room 3.4 during the evening networking.
The Rest and Resilience station is organised by Falay Transition Design and Billnäs Gård
