What is the workshop about?
- Who is it for: Couples
- Topics: Energy Work, Meditation, Relationships, Tantra
This workshop is a playful love journey that explores aspects of our life energy in action in life and our relationships.
The relationship is like a garden. Continuously, we need to nurture this inner garden. We often get lost in our daily activities. We give priority to solving daily life issues. Often we postpone taking care of our garden. All gardens need care, attention, nourishment, the sun, the rain … and much more.
The word Tantra comes from Sanskrit and means tools (tan) for expansion (tra). Tantra is a wonderful tool and we don’t really have to do much. Simply, use the keys it provides. Tantra is an energetic approach to life: we learn to say yes to life. We learn to say yes to our differences in the relationship, rather than fight them.
Tantra teaches us that even in differences, we can meet and become one. It helps us to open up where, perhaps, we have begun to close.
Usually, in our relationships, we try to find depth by solving problems with a psychological approach. Tantra offers an energetic approach: it offers tools; so-called circulations and meditations, that support the flow of energy between two partners. These tools bring silence and balance. Balance within ourselves and balance in the relationship. From silence, love and compassion can flow, naturally. A new trust emerges that gives us the strength to share, where we usually hold back, give up, keep quiet.
Tantra for couples is not a one-time affair. It is an invitation for continuous practice, from a foundation where we can remember to take care of the garden.
During these 5 days you will be supported in and receive tools for :
- Connecting with each other energetically (instead of our usual connection that mainly happens through our mind and personality)
- Exploring and playing with male/female polarity
- Charging your energy system
- Various tantric practises and meditations
- Experimenting with a tantric approach to life
- Deepening your lovemaking
- Strengthening the communication towards more openness and vulnerability
- Bringing presence into your love-making with various basic tantra keys
- Having a quality of playfulness in the relationship
There will be moments for exchange, support and sharing
There is no nudity and all couple exercises will only be explored with one’s partner
There will be given time for you and your partner to experiment in privacy and practise some of the teachings in your own rooms.
This group is based upon :
- A Tibetan buddhist tantra map w/tantric meditation techniques from the lineage of Padmasambhava that has been passed on and adapted to westerners by Vaekstcentrets Tantra School.
- Osho’s meditations and teachings on Tantra
- Our passion that has grown out of our many years of practice with Tantra, meditation and relating
This group is deeply rooted in meditation.
In this workshop you will explore:
- Your intimacy will deepen
- Sexuality can become more playful, creative and more meditative
- It is possible to shift from performance to relaxation
- More trust and courage can grow in the relationship
- A tantric approach can support you during challenging periods with emotional conflicts
