According to the studies about workplace stress, working in a nursing home for the elderly is one of the most stressful jobs and both employees as well as the management are well aware of this fact.

Therefore, in the Danica Vogrinec Home for the elderly in Pobrezje, Maribor in Slovenia they enabled their employees to practice Nirvana® at their workplace which lead them to better cope with stress (helping the disabled, dealing with death on a daily basis, dementia...).

Rawat Kanchan is an inspiration to her students and to all of us in how she chooses to react to her unfortunate circumstances – no matter what horrors befall her she reminds us that "she is breathing, she is present and she is Tuki”.

This teaches us that even in the darkest moments of our life, the breath is always available to us. It is there to bring us back, to remind us that we are all connected and that no matter what happens outside of us, we are alive, we are here and this life remains truly a fascinating gift.

After a short class led by Evelyn, students report feeling a deep sense of relaxation, peace and kindness – as their unbalanced CO2 levels are normalized, the tension in their bodies drops, adrenaline and cortisol stop being pumped out into their bloodstream and they reach a state of Tuki.

In this state, students are ready to absorb far more information in the classroom and they can collaborate successfully with other students without conflict – they are truly alive and connected living a nirvana lifestyle.
