About Onivers
A nonprofit association for mental health and wellbeing
Onivers brings together knowledge, practice, and community through its work in areas including mindfulness, meditation, yoga, psychoeducation, and breathwork.
Based in Copenhagen, Onivers creates events, activities, and communities where people can gain knowledge, practise, and explore methods for greater presence, balance, self-awareness, and a sense of connection.
Our work is grounded in research, evidence-based principles, and practical experience. Through mindfulness, meditation, yoga, and psychoeducation, we provide tools that can support mental health and wellbeing. We also aim to raise awareness of how these practices may help prevent and reduce stress, anxiety, depression, and loneliness.
Onivers is for both members and the wider community. At Onivers, you can come as you are.

At Our Core
What We Stand For
Onivers is dedicated to making mental wellbeing more accessible through knowledge, practice, and community. We create welcoming spaces where people can learn, practise, and connect around tools that foster presence, balance, self-awareness, and meaningful human connection.
The Difference We Aim to Make
Our goal is to build a bridge between knowledge, practice, and everyday life, making knowledge and practices for mental health and wellbeing easier to understand, engage with, and share with others. In this way, we aim to give more people access to practical tools, lifelong learning, and supportive communities that foster lasting wellbeing and a healthier, more connected way of living.
Our Identity
What Is Onivers?
Onivers is a nonprofit community organization with a public-benefit mission that extends far beyond individual classes, workshops, or events. We are dedicated to making mental well-being more accessible through knowledge, practice, community, and collaboration.
Income from membership fees and activities is reinvested in the association’s work and used to operate and develop activities, teaching, and communities. The association’s accounts and budget are presented each year for approval at the annual general meeting in accordance with our statutes.
Onivers provides a welcoming space where people can learn, practice, connect, and contribute. We combine evidence-informed knowledge about mental well-being with practical approaches such as mindfulness, meditation, yoga, breathwork, O Meditation, and other mindful practices that encourage greater presence and self-awareness.
Psychoeducation is a core part of our approach because knowledge empowers people to better understand their thoughts, emotions, habits, and needs. Our goal is not to make mental well-being more complex, but to make it more understandable, practical, and relevant to everyday life.
Collaboration is also central to the identity of Onivers. We actively seek partnerships with organizations, professionals, and communities working in the fields of well-being, education, health, culture, prevention, social impact, and community development. By working together, we believe we can create a broader and more lasting positive impact.
Simply put, Onivers exists to build a bridge between knowledge and everyday life.
Our Values
The Principles That Guide Onivers
At Onivers, our values are more than words. They shape everything we do. They are reflected in the way we design our programmes, build communities, foster partnerships, and create meaningful learning experiences.
Accessibility
Mental health should be accessible to everyone, not only to those who already have experience, resources, or financial means. We are committed to making knowledge, wellbeing practices, and supportive communities easier to discover, understand, and participate in.
Community
Community is at the heart of Onivers. We believe people thrive through meaningful relationships, shared experiences, and opportunities to learn, practise, and grow together.
Inclusion
At Onivers, everyone is welcome exactly as they are. We strive to create spaces that embrace people of all backgrounds, life experiences, identities, abilities, and perspectives, ensuring that everyone feels seen, respected, and valued.
Responsibility
We approach mental health with both compassion and integrity. Our programmes are grounded in research, evidence-informed principles, and practical experience, allowing us to provide honest and responsible learning experiences.

Access
Our Approach
At Onivers, you can come as you are. Whether you are new, curious, or experienced, there is a place for you. You do not need to be especially flexible, follow a particular lifestyle, or hold any specific spiritual beliefs. You also do not need to be facing a particular challenge to take part.

Onivers is for anyone who wants to learn, grow, and strengthen their mental wellbeing through knowledge, practice, and community. We work with mindfulness, meditation, yoga, breathwork, and psychoeducation as practical tools for greater presence, body awareness, emotional regulation, and self-understanding.
Our approach is grounded, responsible, and inclusive. We aim to create safe, welcoming spaces where knowledge and practice are accessible without perfection or the expectation to perform.
Onivers Is a Place for Learning, Practice, and Community
- Activities at Onivers are based on learning and practice. They are not therapy or treatment.
- Participation does not require any particular religious or spiritual beliefs.
- You do not need to perform or follow a particular lifestyle to take part.

Our Local Foundation
Based in Copenhagen
Onivers is based in Copenhagen, where we create activities, events, communities, and partnerships that make knowledge and practices for mental health and wellbeing more accessible in everyday life.
Copenhagen is a city with strong traditions of civic life, culture, education, local communities, and green public spaces. This makes the city an ideal home for a nonprofit association dedicated to presence, balance, lifelong learning, and mental wellbeing.
Our activities may take place at different locations across the city, depending on the format, our partners, and the needs of the community. These may include workshops, educational activities, shared practice groups, events, or local projects created in collaboration with others.
Although Copenhagen is where Onivers began, our vision extends beyond the city. We welcome partnerships, projects, and collaborative initiatives throughout Denmark with organisations and communities that share our commitment to strengthening mental health and wellbeing, fostering connection, and improving quality of life.
Looking Ahead
Where Onivers Is Headed
Onivers is continually evolving. Copenhagen is our starting point, and our vision is to grow through more activities, stronger communities, new partnerships, and wider access to knowledge about mental health and wellbeing.
More Activities
More workshops, events, educational programmes, and local initiatives that make practical knowledge and wellbeing practices accessible to more people.
Stronger Communities
Growing a vibrant network of members, volunteers, professionals, and local partners who help shape and strengthen the Onivers community.
Digital Access
Making knowledge, practice, and community more accessible through digital resources, video content, online communities, and learning experiences that reach people wherever they are.
Our ambition is not to grow for the sake of growth. Our goal is to expand access, deepen quality, and strengthen community. As Onivers evolves, we remain committed to preserving the trust, integrity, and human connection that define everything we do.
