Body Mindfulness - a system that operates 24/7
The body is not a problem to be solved.
It is a system to be understood.
Our impact in numbers
Real bodies, not theory. Ilona has spent thirty years studying how the body breaks down and how to rebuild it.
Post-rehabilitation, post-injury, and people SIMPLY TIRED OF ALWAYS BEING IN PAIN.
People who have chosen structural correction over another uncomfortable morning. Join them.
Short, focused practices you can start today — from four minutes upward.
Choosing a Goal
For what purpose are you seeking help?
Choose what is most important to you right now:
Sleep and recovery
“I have trouble falling asleep, I wake up stiff in the morning, and I don't feel rested.”
View courses
"Phone neck" and posture
“Neck, shoulders, upper back — constant tension from screens and sitting.”
View courses
Breathing and the nervous system
“I feel tension in my chest; it's hard to relax, and my breathing is shallow.”
View courses
Movement without pressure
“I want to move every day, but without the gym, without a workout plan, and without ‘goals'.”

"The problem isn't your discipline. It’s what your body hasn’t learned yet."
Ilona Navickienė, creator of the method
What does your body really want?
Your body speaks every day—through pain, fatigue, and sleepless nights. This tool will help you understand what it is saying and discover a path forward without pressure or "quick fixes."
How much does it cost to do nothing?
"Every night spent in an improper position structurally moves your cervical spine further away from its natural curve. Waiting does not solve the problem — it deepens it." — Ilona Navickienė

Testimonials
Experiences of those who listened to their bodies
You won't know until you try. And I'd recommend trying it specifically with Ilona, because she is a true professional. I've been exercising with her for thirteen years. It strengthens the body and solves its problems — but after a longer time you realise it also changes your thinking, and how you approach problems

I've been training with Ilona for eight years. It's a wonderful place for both body and soul. Over that time I've lost nearly twenty kilograms. With her constant support and motivation I feel younger, healthier and more active. I recommend it without reservation.

I’ve been working out with Ilona on and off since 2009, and I’m convinced that if it weren’t for these workouts—which began with the Pilates method and evolved into deep muscle training with integrated strength, stabilization, aerodynamic exercises—I’d probably be visiting doctors now, like so many others who spend long hours sitting at a computer, suffering from back, spine, or neck pain. This is a form of exercise that allows you to get to know yourself better, while also relying on Ilona’s expertise to correct any improper postures or movements. I highly recommend it!
Raminta Pucetaite
We’ve been attending one-on-one exercise sessions with Ilona for four years now. We came to her with joint and back pain. After six months of training, the pain subsided and we felt good again.We really appreciate the variety of exercises, the warm and friendly interaction, and the professional instruction.We highly recommend her!!!
Daiva Dirmeikienė
Amazingly,I’ve had more than one health problem—a herniated disc, a heart attack, polymyalgia. It seems like I should just fall apart. But I’m alive. I’m living a full life. What helped? You won’t believe it—exercise. Exercise, my trainer, and Ilona, the philosopher! If you saw me on the street, you’d never guess that my shoulders had borne the weight of so many hardships.

I’ve been going to the Body Mindfulness exercises for 8 years now. It’s a great place for both body and soul. During this time, I’ve lost almost 20 kg. With my trainer’s constant support and motivation, I feel younger, healthier, and more active. I highly recommend it.
Vitalija Jaugelaviciene
The word “mindfulness” entered my daily life after I was in an accident. For a long time after my rehabilitation, climbing stairs was painful. I discovered Ilona’s exercises more than a year ago. Now I can quickly climb up to my fifth-floor apartment without any pain. I’ve started paying closer attention to my body and my bodily sensations; I constantly remind myself to “keep my head up,” and I feel stronger, straighter—I’ve even grown 2 cm taller. Thank you, Ilona!
Milda Lukoševičienė
Mindfulness entered my life after an accident. After rehabilitation, stairs were painful for a long time. Now I climb to my fifth floor quickly and without pain — and I've become two centimetres taller.
Egle Bagdoniene
I joined trainer Ilona Navickienė’s beginner’s group. From the trainer, I learned how important it is to coordinate movement with breathing to avoid side effects. During the workouts, I was introduced to the deep muscle groups and the effect of each exercise on specific muscles and the skeletal system, and I was also taught to become more aware of my body. During this time, my posture and gait have improved. I still attend the sessions and am very grateful to Coach Ilona and her teaching methods; for seven years now, I haven’t had to see a doctor for back pain.

FAQ
What you are most likely asking right now
What is Body Mindfulness, and how is it different from yoga or Pilates?
Body Mindfulness is the conscious cooperation of the mind and body during any physical action — attention to how you sit, move, breathe, and rest — rather than a workout or a set of poses.
It's the method Ilona Navickienė has developed over more than thirty years of working with people, built on five rules: want, discover, understand, do, enjoy. Yoga and Pilates are valuable movement practices; Body Mindfulness focuses on understanding why your body feels the way it does, so the habits of your whole day change.
It isn't a sport, and it isn't a substitute for medical care.

Which courses are available, and how much do they cost?
Two structured online courses: My Body Map — 5 Rules for a Healthier and Happier Life (4 weeks, €178) and Restorative Sleep (3 weeks, €139).
There are also short practical videos of 3–40 minutes on single topics, several of them free. Every course includes lifetime access and a 30-day money-back guarantee.
→ Read more: See all courses
Are the courses suitable for beginners?
Yes — the courses are designed so you can start from scratch, with no prior experience.
Ilona explains every step from the point of view of anatomy and physiology, so you understand what you're doing rather than just copying it.
→ Read more: See all courses
How much time do the courses take?
About 15–20 minutes a day for the structured courses; the short practical videos run from 3 to 40 minutes.
Some practices can be done at your desk or before bed, so they fit into the day rather than needing extra time set aside.
→ Read more: See all courses
Can I take the courses if I have neck or back pain or a health condition?
Usually yes — the practices are gentle, built on breathing and slow movement — but speak to your doctor first if you have acute pain or inflammation, a recent operation or injury, or numbness or weakness.
Go at a mindful pace and listen to your body. If an exercise causes pain, stop.
→ Read more: Body Mindfulness vs traditional fitness
Do the courses replace a doctor or physiotherapy?
No — the courses complement physiotherapy, medical care, yoga and sport, but they don't replace them.
They teach awareness and habits for the hours you're awake. Always consult a specialist about health problems.

Is it available in English?
Currently, all courses are in Lithuanian. We are already preparing English-language programs. Sign up for the newsletter to be the first to know.
Do I need the Kit™ to take the courses?
No — the courses work on their own, and so does the Kit™; together they cover different hours of the day.
The courses teach the principles for the time you're awake; the Kit™ supports your neck while you sleep. Many people start with a course and add the Kit™ later.

Are the courses available in English?
Not yet — all courses are currently taught in Lithuanian, and English programmes are in preparation.
Sign up to the newsletter to be the first to know when they launch.

What is the course guarantee, and how long do I have access?
Every course has a 30-day money-back guarantee, and once you join you have lifetime access to the lectures and exercises on any device.
If a course isn't right for you, request a refund within 30 days of purchase. This is separate from the 90-night adaptation guarantee, which covers the physical tools.
→ Read more: 30-day course guarantee
Who leads the course?
Ilona Navickiene leads the courses. She is a Lithuanian public health expert, body mindfulness specialist, and rehabilitation consultant. She is the founder of Mind Your Sleep by Unusually Usual® and the creator of the Body Mindfulness LT method.
Her credentials: 30+ years of professional practice in public health, body awareness, and clinical rehabilitation; named inventor on EU Registered Community Design #009206642-0001 (the Neck Pain & Sleep Reset Kit™); creator of four structured online courses and 20+ practical video programmes serving 2,900+ course participants and 19,000+ community members; speaker and trainer in body mindfulness, cervical health, and sleep restoration.
Her method is grounded in anatomy, biomechanics, and the fascia-nervous system connection — not in wellness trends. Her founding principle: 'Aš jus vedu atgal prie to, kas jau ir taip yra jūsų' ('I guide you back to what is already yours’).
