There comes a moment when yoga is no longer only about movement.
When something quieter begins to call. ✨
**I Am — The Circle of Truth** is a 9-week meditation journey for those who feel ready to deepen.
Not beginners.
Not drop-in.
But sincere practitioners who long for continuity, reflection and inner alignment.
Each week we sit with one essential quality of being:
I am Love
I am Light
I am Abundance
I am Life
I am Joy
I am Beauty
I am Peace
I am Wisdom
We weave meditation, journaling and the wisdom of the Niyamas into a committed and intimate container — because what we practice now shapes our future.
🗓 24 March – 19 May 2026
🕰 Tuesdays at 18:45–20:00
📍 Helsinki studio + live online
Closed circle.
Limited places to keep the circle intimate.
If you feel the quiet pull, you already know. 🤍

You may have heard us chanting the Gayatri Mantra in some classes and wondered — why do we chant it, and what does it mean?
The Gayatri Mantra, attributed to the sage Vishvamitra, is one of the oldest known mantras in the Vedic tradition. It comes from the ancient Vedas, sacred texts whose origins reach back thousands of years.
Mantras are not only words — they carry vibration and energy. When we chant the Gayatri, we connect with its uplifting, illuminating quality.
A simple translation is:
“O Divine light, source of all life, illuminate our consciousness.”
When we chant this mantra, we are inviting more clarity, wisdom, and inner light into our being.
Enjoy the vibration of the mantra - welcome to class.

Purna Yoga Helsinki opened its doors under Tove Palmgren. Tove had brought Ashtanga yoga to Finland in the 90’s and brought Purna Yoga in 2010.
In 2011 Nicola came to the studio for the first time and fell in love with it immediately. Her studies with yoga were focused on Hatha and pre-and postnatal yoga so she started teaching prenatal yoga classes at Tove’s place. Curious about this new system she took their 200- hour Purna Yoga teacher training in 2012.
In 2015 the studio was lucky to gain two new teachers with Eva and Gabriel and soon the three with Nicola became 500- hour Purna Yoga trainees under the masters guidance of Aadil Palkhivala and the Purna Yoga College Finland.
Big changes happened in 2017 when Nicola took over the studio and found another one of her passions. Helping more and more people to find joy in their lives and running a small business. Purna Yoga Helsinki is and always was a joyful community of likeminded people who have a bigger aim in their life.
“Our goal is to serve you as a complete human being, to help you find the stress-free and happy version of you. Purna Yoga teachers are here for your body, your mind and your soul.”
