6 April
Starting date for a 10-week course in HEYO Qigong
- Heaven-Earth-You-One -
to the tones of Gongs and Crystal Instruments
Come join us for what can be a life changing experience, learning HEYO Qigong – Heaven- Earth-You-One to the healing tones from Gongs and Crystal instruments. Find your way back to your roots deep deep down in the Earth and far far out in the Universe through soft but powerful movements with a specific concentration. Remember how it feels to be one with the water, to be the wave in the ocean that is moved by the wind towards the shore and out to the sea again. Find your way back to your own, unique light, to your strength. Open up your intuition to the magic all around you. Learn how to feel the energies surrounding you and how to direct them.
After this weekend with HEYO Qigong, you can continue practising the method at home whenever it suits you. You get a video- and sound recording in which Maria shows the whole method and gives oral instructions accompanied by the deeply healing tones from gongs and crystal instruments through Bjørn’s playing. This recording will support you at home and guide you on your way to remembering who you are, where you come from and where you are going.
HEYO Qigong was created intuitively by Maria over a period of time in connection with hers and Bjørn's Shamanic journey to The Andes in Peru in August 2025. It is a deeply harmonising and empowering Qigong method that helps you return to your natural state of being.
The method focuses on opening up your hands, your heart, your third eye and your navel for the life energy – Qi - of the universe and the earth. To feel how that energy runs through you and how you can work with the Qi to become balanced and start living a life fully connected with yourself, the earth and the universe. HEYO Qigong helps you open up, explore and develop your intuitive senses and makes you feel at home in your physical body here on earth.
In HEYO Qigong we focus on bringing the Qi to the heart, the third eye and the navel in order to open up these three main chakras and connect them with each other so that we can start living a life in love where we follow our intuition and start manifesting our dreams - our personal dreams and our dreams for the earth and the universe. We take another step on our path of becoming Homo Luminous.
Through slow movements with a specific concentration for each movement, we work with the flow of Qi within our whole body and our energetic body. We cleanse blockings that we have in our system, both in the physical body and in the energetic body, to make the Qi flow freely in the energy meridians, in the blood and in the lymphatic system.
The hands are essential in HEYO Qigong. In this method, we open up our hands to feeling the energies of heaven and earth and to direct hese energies in order to open up all our senses – our intuitive hearing, seeing, feeling, smelling, tasting, knowing. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, our hands are connected to the heart, so when we open up the energy flow in our hands, we open up our connection between the heart and the hands.
In all, the method takes around 40 minutes to practice but you can also choose to just do certain parts.
During this course, you will learn the method and practice to the deeply healing tones of Gongs and Crystal instruments that enhance the cleansing and balancing effect of the Qigong. The tones work on cellular level within your body and on a soul level in your energetic body.
We also talk about Energy Medicine during the course. How we can help ourselves to become whole through natural, ancient methods that have been passed on from generation to generation within Traditional Chinese Medicine and Shamanic Energy Medicine from the Q'eros in the Andes in Peru (descendants of the Inkas).
We’re looking forward to sharing this beautiful and powerful Qigong method with you!

ABOUT SOUL JOURNEY QIGONG 1:
Soul Journey Qi Gong 1- The Initiation of the Heart, is a Qigong method that consists of five series of simple, soft, beautiful, slow and powerful movements with a specific concentration for each movement. The movements and the concentration help you connect on a very deep level with the earth, the water, the mountains, the wind, the trees and the universe. You can feel the oneness with the whole of creation and find the way back to your own light that is part of the original light of love.
Soul Journey Qigong 1 is a unique form of Qigong, a beautiful and powerful blend of the wisdom of the East, ancient shamanic wisdom (mainly from the Q'ero shamans in the Andes, descendants of the Incas) and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
In this method you open up your heart for the original light of love and find your way back to your own unique light. You center yourself, connect with all the lay lines and water lines on earth and stand strong in your own magnetic field. You fill your body with oxygen and the specific nutrition you need. You connect with the original life energy from the source of life and spread it through the spinal liquid to every cell in your body. By cross-connecting and balancing the two sides of the brain, you create harmony within and open up for your intuition and creativity.
On a physical level you stimulate the circulation of blood and lymph in your body, you soften and strengthen muscles, joints and ligaments and you make the life energy, "Qi", flow freely in the 12 energy meridians that are connected to the main inner organs in your body."
The whole program takes around 40 minutes to practice.
We practice to the healing tones from Gongs and Crystal instruments which deepens and strengthens the effect of the qigong. The sessions end with a guided Gong Meditation.
After the Gong Meditation, we have a cup of tea and Maria shares what helping energy frequencies have come to each participant during the meditation. And those who wish can also share their experiences of the meditation.

For thousands of years it has been practiced by the Chinese to create balance between body, mind and soul and thereby stay in good health. There are numerous different kinds of qigong. Soul Journey Qi Gong is a unique form created by Maria Løken - a blend of old eastern philosophy, Traditional Chinese Medicine and ancient shamanic wisdom. It consists of series of soft, slow, beautiful, simple and powerful movements made with a specific concentration for each movement.
By practicing Soul Journey Qi Gong you stimulate the circulation of "qi", blood and lymph in your body. You fill every cell in your body with fresh oxygen and you stimulate all your inner organs.
On a soul level, practicing Soul Journey Qigong can help you open up your heart and feel the oneness with nature and the universe. Feel the oneness with every part of creation. You can find your own light, your unique vibration of the original source of love.
The effect of the qigong practice is deepened and strengthened by the healing tones from gongs and crystal instruments played by Bjørn.
The qigong session will be followed by a deeply healing Gong Meditation during which you can let go of heavy energies that do not serve you anymore and bring in the original light of love from heaven and earth. The tones and frequences enter on cellular level in your body, help you open up and release blockings and tensions.

29 APRIL-2 MAY
Shamanic Workshop "Opening Up the Heart"
Part 1 of The Inka Medicine Wheel - The Circle of Light
Løken Gård, Fetsund, Norway
"Opening Up the Heart" is the first part of our Inka Medicine Wheel, The Circle of Light, that consists of five workshops. Each workshop also works as a separate unit, so you are warmly welcome whenver you feel the calling!
In this workshop we step into the South and get to know the archetype of the south - Serpent - who teaches us to shed our past as easily and smoothly as the snake shifts its skin and helps us remember how to move softly here on earth, in our Garden of Eden.
One of the main focuses of this workshop is on opening up the heart for the original light of love. Among other things you will get one of the three big energy transmissions of the Q'ero Shamans - The Initiation of the Heart - through a Gong and Crystal Sound Meditation and through Soul Journey Qi Gong 1 to the tones of gongs and crystal instruments.
You will get to know the Wiracocha, your highest light. How to connect to it, how to use it as a filter, how to expand it and let it spread out to your surroundings and the whole world.
Another important focus will be on beginning to source from the future. You will reconnect with your origin in the stars through our transmissions of the energy frequencies of some of the stars in the Pleiades. This will make it easier for you to receive information and energetic nourishment from the future in stead of being tied to and held back by the past.
You will also learn a bit about the three different worlds, our inner worlds: the under world (the subconscious you), the middle world (the conscious you) and the upper world (the superconscious you).
Our days together contain many guided Gong and Crystal Sound Meditations, Qi Gong, talking, sharings, energy work exercises, initiations (energy transmissions), energy work outdoors in the beautiful nature around Løken Gård, fire ceremonies etc. We follow the energy processes in the group and what comes to us from the world and the universe so we can never say beforehand exactly what will come up in each workshop but we have a basic structure for each one.
We will give you tools to bring home for you to work with to continue your own magical journey to get to know every part of yourself, nature and the universe.
