Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Mia Lehndal, owner of Coachcom AB, located in Karlstad, Sweden.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
Body Love Yoga & Tantra is here to guide us back home to our true selves. Or, more accurately, expressed to remind us of what we might have forgotten. By feeling sensations in the body as they are expressing themselves moment by moment, we can gently surrender to the flow of life expressing itself within and around us. In our busy lives, we might sometimes lose touch with our human nature as being one with nature as a whole. We might momentarily forget who we are and how much we are supported by nature in being who we are meant to be. Yoga, meditation & tantra help us to reconnect to the wholeness of our beings and their interconnectedness with the wholeness of all that exists. Within this indivisible wholeness, we feel safe, loved, supported, and free. We sometimes call this inner freedom, peace of mind, or awakening. This remembrance does not happen only through the mind. We need to involve the body in the process. Somatic exploration in movement and stillness makes us rediscover who we are, and that is what yoga, tantra, and meditation are all about. Nothing needs to be mastered, achieved, or controlled. Surrender is the way of letting go and feeling what is real. Here and now, all the time. Everything I will invite you to do is support this process of surrender rather than striving or aiming to make something specific happen.
Tell us about yourself
Twenty years ago, I was a bit lost in life and was looking for my purpose. I left everything I had to go traveling alone, and after some time, I ended up in India, where I found meditation and tantra. It was like coming home, and instead of feeling lost, I felt complete, even though nothing had really changed in my other circumstances.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I live my dream by giving the most precious gifts of life to other people. The more of it you give, the more you get back.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Uncertainty, for sure. You never know what challenges are coming up or if you will even have an income next month. Luckily meditation is about learning to live life as if you only have this moment and living it as fully as possible, not knowing anything about the future. So I am obviously walking my talk. :-)
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Relax and enjoy. This energy will emanate from your customers and makes them feel safe and trust you. Be yourself!
- When you have a low inflow, invest time in taking care of yourself and nurture your being, your most precious asset.
- Only offer what is true to your heart, always!
