Svalja Whole-Being

Svalja Whole-Being Svälja Whole-Being is a trauma-conscious healing center in downtown Duluth. We offer yoga, fitness, Qigong, meditation, and YTT. Yoga means to unite.

Dedicated to accessibility, a free recovery program, and partnerships with nonprofits so all connect to their innate wholeness At Svälja Yoga (pronounced “svehl-yah”) all of our offerings are trauma-conscious. Through our Whole-Being Well-Being approach, we support people on their own unique healing journey. We share the wisdom and practice of yoga in a way that is accessible, inclusive, and honors choice. Yoga is a pathway to well-being and to the realization of our innate wholeness. We guide participants to connect with their internal resources and potential for healing, transformation, and growth. Through this exploratory journey we rediscover home, deep within: our true selves. We offer classes, workshops, retreats, and a 250-hour Yoga Teacher Training program.

My body speaks
in its original language
of water and earth.

I open my mouth
and a river of paper flowers
flows into the light.

Join Kristy Marie and friends for an evening deep dive into a 2-hour participatory musical offering. These nights will be full of experiential unity as we come together from all paths, many lineages, and all directions to share a moment together in song and great heart.

We will be engaging in universal Kirtan, dances of universal peace, and a dive into the Sufi practice of Zikr. These practices encourage sovereignty while sharing space with others, and no experience is necessary—it is forever and always a practice, not a performance.

Kirtan is a more sedentary, sonic experience, while the dances of universal peace and Zikr are more of a guided, moving, and harmonizing meditation.

The vibrations of our voices coming together help to dissolve the barriers between us and our hearts, and our hearts alongside all other hearts.

✨
Still, what I want in my life
is to be willing
to be dazzled
to cast aside the weight of facts

and maybe even
to float a little
above this difficult world.
I want to believe I am looking

into the white fire of a great mystery.
I want to believe that the imperfections are nothing—
that the light is everything—that it is more than the sum
of each flawed blossom rising and fading. And I do.
