NORKOVA

Advocate for Happy

 Creating a happier, healthier world

Mental Health Awareness and Community Groups

What is Norkova?

Norkova is a Utah-based well-being community, rooted in mental health advocacy.

The purpose of Norkova is to ease the mental health crisis by focusing on personal growth, with community support. We aim to help people find joy in the every day and live happier lives.

We currently have an exponentially growing community of men, women, they’s, them, dogs and reptiles in Salt Lake City.

The goal is to provide a space to foster connection based on intention and aligned values. Events range from larger, community events to smaller, more intimate small-group discussions and meditations. If you are not local to Utah, we offer virtual events!

We believe that the world is experiencing a mental health crisis. Our communities, or lack thereof, are hurting. COVID rocked everyone’s world, society is changing, and current social norms do not encourage community building. Depression and anxiety are an all time high and we are more disconnected and individuated than ever. This is where and why the Norkova groups were born.


The Butterfly Effect

The Butterfly Effect is described as

“An idea that says that a small change can make much bigger changes happen. The idea started from weather prediction.... The term butterfly effect comes from an analogy where a butterfly flaps its wings in Chicago and a tornado occurs in Tokyo” (wikipedia.org)

Kindness. Happiness. Joy. They are contagious. We live one life, why not make it amazing. The Norkova community and the groups hope to be this butterfly flapping it’s wings. Creating the positive change the world needs. Kindness and happiness are the result of the butterfly effect. They can, and will be spread. One person, one soul, at a time.

Small impacts by the masses create massive change.

Community groups are the backbone of Norkova. They are the face of change. They are spreading happiness, joy, and kindness every day. We hope to keep spreading this positive energy and help people become their best selves.

Happiness is the goal. Joy in the everyday. Purpose. Inner peace and healing. Improving the inner being, so we can pour out of a full cup.

Making mental health cool again.

Or trying to.

The world is hurting. People are tired, burnt out, at their breaking point. Norkova wants to change this by

creating, initiating, and continuing

Human connection, community, and mental health awareness.
