Activate Your Energy - Soul Revolution
Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Mervi Enqvist, Founder of Soul Revolution, located in Helsinki, Finland.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I am a Kundalini Yoga teacher and a creator of the Energy Activation Method. It is based on understanding your inner power, kundalini, and how it's related to ancient wisdom traditions. It is a simple mindfulness tool to work with your shadows so you can be the best version of yourself and spread the light from within.
Tell us about yourself
I have been a student of yoga for almost 30 years. I've been teaching Kundalini Yoga for over 20 years. I founded the Kundalini Yoga School in Helsinki in 2015. I'm a published author of four self-help books in Finland and a documentary filmmaker. Since childhood, I have been interested in finding the truth that lies beneath. I had my first kundalini experience when I was a pre-schooler. I did not know that back then, but later I learned what the experience was about. I train Kundalini Yoga Teachers at the Academy of Higher Consciousness, which I founded in 2020.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I think the biggest one has been that I was able to keep my yoga studio open through the past two years when the classes had to be canceled due to the world situation.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Learning to live with the freedom it gives you. It is easy to go to work at 9 AM and be back home by 6 PM and know that every month you'll get paid. As a business owner, you make your own schedule (which I'm happy about), and you don't know if you'll get paid that month. It's teaching you uncertainty. But when you learn to live in a flow and trust, there is no better place to work but for yourself. Eventually, it will also pay off financially.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
Don't give up. Trust. When there is a pump on the road, drive over it slowly, but determent to pass it. Learn to understand the cycle of the year. Some months are slow some are busy; plan your business following the nature of your own field. Enjoy your freedom. It is the absolute best!
