Listen to your body & spirit
In our program, you will learn how to listen to your body and spirit, and tend to your emotional wellbeing. By understanding and addressing your own emotional needs, you will be able to provide support to your family and your community, holding overwhelming emotions and guiding others towards healing.
Create Resilience
We believe that every individual has the power to create resilience within themselves. Through our program, you will gain the necessary tools and skills to navigate this time of transition and turn it into a platform for personal growth and development. By investing in your own wellbeing, you will be able to uplift and inspire others in your community.
Become a Champion of Healing
Our program aims to empower women like you to become champions of healing. Together, we can build resilient communities that support and uplift each other. Join us and be a part of the movement towards emotional healing and empowerment.
Nathalie & Eszter
Eszter and I lived in Sudan and have a deep love of the country. I am the fourth generation to grow up in Khartoum. My origins are from the Middle East. I started Blue Nile Lotus in 2008 where many Sudanese and expats came to practice yoga and meditation. Numerous individuals were trained at Blue Nile Lotus and earned their teacher training certificate. Eszter is Hungarian and worked for the UN when in Sudan. Eszter is an amazing yoga and meditation teacher. Together we have run retreats and workshops worldwide.
​
When the war broke out in Khartoum, our hearts ached. I had been in Khartoum a month before the outbreak of war and had started dreaming about spending more time in Sudan. Neither Eszter nor I went through what most of you went through. What we would like is to be with you in community and offer tools to help you move through your own experience. We wish to create the space for you to remember who you are at your core. We hope to create a sense of community, so that you feel held during these challenging times. We are not coming with western tools to resolve your trauma. We are aware that the institutions that come to ‘save or help’ are out dated. The healing can only happen by you. If you decide to join, we would be honored to accompany you as you move towards wellness
