A quick way to get rid of your stiffness and get your body awareness back, as when you where a child, is to get to know your muscles, bones, and organs allover again, and become aware of their existence. Feel them, by dedicating a few minutes a day to your body. It’s a way to meditate. In all my years of exploration I have not found anything that works better for most people than Yoga (done in silence and no disturbing scents). But any slow, silent and stretching movement could do the same. The point is to feel, every movement, every muscle – feel which ones are active and which ones are relaxing, and avoid any disturbance to that feeling. Most of our stiffness comes from traumas experienced in childhood before we had the capability of expressing them or understanding them. The trauma was easily ‘stuck’ in our bodies, with a lowered flow of humours and energy. Any insignificant happening could have blocked the body and most of those we aren’t even aware of. More on this here.
For a quick de-blocking of stiffness in the body, you can take away as much as possible of what is ‘censuring’ you from getting to know You, both your body and mind, i.e., to detox. That’s what teach at our retreats. Eat clean and healthy vegan food, get rid of toxic chemicals, etc, and for your mind, seek environments where you feel loved, not just tolerated. Change friends, partners, job, even family if you need to, but don’t stay in environments where it is required of you to like things you don’t like, or dislike things you don’t dislike, or to be someone you are not. You can always come back to those environments when you got most of You back and resist outer pressure or even understand and embrace the pressure. But remember where there is longterm pain there is no longterm gain. Equally there is not always longterm gain in short term pleasure.

O•live Retreat demystifies health and in the process it stands clear that health is far from drugs or injections made from petrochemicals.
First we make sure you know yourself, your body and what that means. Then we continue on your healthy path to get to know your body and yourself to do a good cleanse on all levels, Body·Mind·Soul. With over 15 years in this business and, as Conde Nast Travel and some others put it "top-ranked" health retreat, we base our work our own O• method, derived from a multitude of methods, both old and new. You'll get healthier in all areas of life as we don't think one can leave health at home while going to work, we can't say we are healthy if we destroy our bodies over the weekend or vice versa. One is either healthy or not, and what that means can only be defined by each and one and if that is to indulge in the unhealthy stuff it's because it's really worth it for the only judge - you.
The key training for professionals (individuals and groups) is focused on enhanced productivity through self-inspiration and self-care. As a high equity manager in the finance sector put it - it's all about staying highly inspired. We couldn't agree more and we know how that biochemistry looks like.
Independent studies find that 96% of our guests become more healthy and stay healthy after 6 months, 82% stay healthy after a year. This is a better rate than anyone other treatment or training, as far as we know. Our teachings are based on modern science, and ancient evidence based techniques, and a lot of personal experience with trial and error, in the field of being a healthy human. and healing.
We start all training with a health assessment and by asking what healthy means to each one? How you define it is what counts, but one thing is similar for all no matter what you learnt - a natural, anti-inflammatory lifestyle is everything we need (without drugs) but many things our society finds "normal" cause inflammation and therefore diseases.

For those who are healthy and ready to take their own health out to the world, do more for others and the Earth or have a story to tell we offer Kindfullness projects, support, editing, writing, marketing, translation and publishing.(www.hardonkarma.com)
