UPCOMING WORKSHOPS AND RETREATS:

Under the name OYNS, Crussen and his partner, Torunn Lien, MD, host four workshops and two 4-day immersive, transformational and all-inclusive retreats.

At the heart of OYNS (Optimize Your Nervous System) is a gentle yet powerful integrative circular breathing method that, combined with focused awareness, gives you access to your body at deeper and more subtle levels.

More than a practice, it as an attitude; a way of meeting life’s inevitable ups and downs as opportunities to learn, grow, heal and become more safe in your own body, unleashing your natural authenticity, strength and joy.

Increased body awareness and increased capacity to be OK with what you are feeling is a powerful path to lower your baseline level of stress, heal trauma, expand consciousness and increase health and vitality in every cell of your organism.
