The participants were active and curious, so the learning was quite interactive. We enjoyed each other&#8217;s company and many of the participants expressed their gratitude for the good and friendly people they had the pleasure of spending the weekend with.<\/p>\n<p><h3>From the participants comments:<\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I had neck problems before and that affected my arms. I have gotten rid of that. It has been so much better in just six months. Earlier it pulled and teared in my neck in the morning. But it doesn&#8217;t do that any more.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have a better posture and I walk better. before I walked with one foot outwards, but now I walk normally. And I have a better balance and obviously a better mobility. And I&#8217;m sure that I have prevented a lot that I don&#8217;t know about.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have tried a lot of different things, yoga, reiki and so on. I have always had back problems and this feels very nice for the back. So I will drop the yoga.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It has felt very nice and I have gotten more energy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It has been a strong Qi-field this weekend. I think that I do feel the Qi-field in my own way. I really needed this course, there has been a lot going on lately. I feel totally different now than I felt yesterday morning. It feels good to have invested this weekend in myself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/stu-20070325-121628-0-350.jpg\" alt=\"Eken\u00e4s tr\u00e4ning 070325\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m much calmer and more secure with myself this weekend. I have had very stiff ankles and yesterday they were really awful. I could hardly walk up and down the stairs. It&#8217;s all gone today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have a chaotic job with a lot of expectations. It gives me a lot to join courses. It&#8217;s nice to come here where nothing is expected of me. I haven&#8217;t thought about my job at all this weekend.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have a back with too much mobility and a vertebra that is crooked. And I have osteoarthritis. The doctors have told me I have to live with it. I have practiced almost every day and have made progress. I am very grateful for this course. Earlier, I was very tense and made a lot of mistakes. Now I&#8217;ve gotten a lot of new information. It feels like I&#8217;m back on track again. Even though I have done the movements a little bit wrong, I&#8217;ve gotten great results. I&#8217;m softer and can do the movements better. But the best part is that I can sleep at night now. I used to do crosswords, read, do everything to try and get to sleep. Now I can sleep!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It has been a powerful course. I had problems with my back, but I&#8217;m noticeably better. I&#8217;m more mobile overall. I can get up in the mornings without any stiffness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Teacher:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jeanette Heidenberg<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On March 24-25 we had our first course in sunny Eken\u00e4s, Finland.
