Workshop in peace as a conscious choice

Peace does not come by itself. Peace is a conscious and active choice and a specific way of being in the world. Living in peace is about how you respond to life – in thought, action, and conduct. The world wants change, and change begins within oneself.

At this workshop, you will experience the breathtaking nature of the Faroe Islands. Through the work of sensing, being in the silence, and receiving guidance, you will gain insight into how nature can support you in connecting with the peace within yourself and creating a connection between you and the world you are a part of.

Instruction will be provided in various meditation methods, simple tools, and ancient traditions that can help you find peace and a beneficial connection to your own path in life.

The workshop invites you to work with First Peace (Peace as a conscious choice), Second Peace (Peace within yourself), and World Peace.

In Peace as a conscious choice, we turn our attention inward: We listen to the silence within ourselves and find that which wants to be seen and embraced. Inner peace is the place within you where you can participate in all that is.

In Peace within yourself, we open the heart toward others: We practice meeting others with gentleness and listening without defenses. Peace between people begins in the way we look at and speak to one another.

In World Peace, we enter into a larger cycle—a cycle where peace binds people together. Even when the world appears dark and hopeless, every moment is an opportunity for change. When you choose peace in thought, action, and your way of being in the world, you have a positive influence on your fellow human beings. Choosing peace as a way of life is not only a personal journey; it is also a conscious choice to support peace in the world.

The instructor is psychotherapist MPF, Maria Holm Iversen.
