About this event
DEEPLY HUMAN - Sunday Special
A space for authentic connection, presence, and exploration.
Deeply Human is a recurring Friday evening experience where we come together to connect with ourselves and others in meaningful ways. This is our first Sunday Special!
Each edition offers a different theme, practice, or experience, while staying rooted in authentic relating, empathic listening, and genuine human connection.
Throughout the year, we may explore movement, breathwork, sound, conscious communication, shared meals, and other practices that invite us to slow down, become present, and relate more authentically.
This is not about self-improvement or performing a certain version of yourself. It is an invitation to arrive as you are, meet others with curiosity, and discover what becomes possible when we create space for real connection.
No prior experience is needed. Just bring your openness, your humanity, and a willingness to explore.
✦ DECEMBER 6TH: THAI MASSAGE ✦
Healing Through Conscious Touch, Breath & Presence
DISEASE appears when we are NOT AT EASE. Chronic stress, anxiety, insomnia, burnout, emotional overwhelm, hormonal imbalance, and feeling disconnected from ourselves have become increasingly common. When we disconnect from our inner nature, our body, and the natural rhythm of life. In a world where many of us live in constant stimulation, pressure, and “doing”, our nervous systems often forget what it feels like to feel truly Home.
Healing begins with one essential experience: SAFETY.
Not only external safety - having a safe home, work, or environment - but the deeper inner feeling that our body is safe enough to soften, release, and come back into balance.
Thai yoga massage Therapy workshop is an invitation to return home to the body through conscious touch, breath, movement, and presence. It is a deep healing practice, meditation in motion, and a sacred dance between giver and receiver.
WHAT IS THAI YOGA MASSAGE?
Since ancient times, Thai massage has been considered a spiritual practice, closely connected with the teachings of Buddha. It is rooted in the principles of presence, attention, intention, and METTA - loving kindness and compassion.
Traditional Thai yoga massage works with the concept of energy pathways (sen lines), influenced by yoga philosophy and traditional Asian medicine. Through mindful pressure, rhythmic movement, rocking, stretching, and conscious touch, Thai massage supports relaxation, circulation, and a deeper connection with the body.
Thai yoga massage is much more than a massage technique. It is an opportunity to slow down, listen, and create a relationship with the body based on respect rather than force. The practice is traditionally performed on a futon on the floor, fully clothed and without oil.
The body already knows. Often, the body knows what the mind is still trying to understand.
Here, the slower we go, and the less we force, the more space we create for the body to speak.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
This 2 workshop is an introduction to foundations od Thai Yoga Massage. We will explore:

~ Body positioning and transitions: supine and side position

The ultimate goal of this practice is not to achieve a certain shape or change the body. It is to create a deeply nourishing experience where the receiver feels seen, supported, and connected.
A space where the body can soften. A space where the breath can open. A space where the nervous system can exhale.

~ yoga teachers
~ massage therapists and bodyworkers

~ anyone curious about conscious touch
~ anyone who wants to learn how to share and receive safe, loving presence through the body

“I see the body as a mirror of our inner world. The body is constantly communicating with us, showing us what is happening beneath the surface. Often, the body already knows what the mind is trying to understand. Through conscious touch, breath, and deep presence, we create the conditions for the body to return to safety, balance, and inner harmony.”
