All of our lives we are grown to believe that strength is something very hard and masculine. But if you give it a little deeper thought, which do you in fact feel is more powerful, the tangible or intangible, masculine or feminine, physical or mental? And when we talk about strength, what kind of strength can actually take us closer to what really matters in life? Did we have it all wrong when persisting on growing our physical strength and our material belongings as opposed to investing in our inner strength?
Jutta Niala at Olo-Tila
Jutta Niala, 44, has many times experienced that it is the intangible, feminine and mental things such as our thoughts, attitudes and emotions that actually seal our destiny. Simply by getting to know her inner reality she was able to overcome her goal-oriented nature and give up on the endless demands that she had on herself that drove her to the verge of anorexia and burnout. No wonder Jutta breaks into tears when she tells us that Vijnana yoga, officially characterised as "practising from inside", has been a life changer for her. It has given her the tools to connect her body and mind, peace of mind and permission to face herself in a tender and loving manner.
A while ago Jutta opened her own yoga studio Olo-Tila (translat. 'a state of being') at the heart of Helsinki. A wonderful little place where you feel nothing but welcomed!

Jutta takes care of you and heals you via the amazing methods of Vijnana yoga. Vijnana yoga is not a very widely spread form of yoga (yet) and Jutta delicately describes Vijnana as a kind of "boutique yoga", where each movement is fine tuned into being the smoothest way of ever coming into an asana (yoga pose).
In the book 'A Million Ways To Love Yoga' Jutta shares her transformational yogic path that took her to Israel, where she ended up living a large part of her life, and even studying to become a yoga teacher in Hebrew!
