What is tantric massage?
It is a service for the divinity in the human body, it is a ritual of honouring, it is meditation, it is giving and receiving love through touch, it is a healing of the trauma from rejection, non-acceptance and heartbreak, it is joy, it is a play of energies and connection with one's higher self.
During three days we will learn theory and practice in a small group. What awaits us on this journey:
⁃ getting to know each other, creating a warm and soulful space of trust and respect between all participants
⁃ talking about personal boundaries, the difference between tantric massage and other techniques, and about creating a beautiful and safe space for the practice
⁃ morning active meditations to strengthen personal energy
⁃ couples and group tantric practices to enhance sensations
⁃ practice of tantric breathing
⁃ practices to enhance sensitivity of the hands
⁃ rituals for opening and closing the field of a tantric massage session
⁃ theory of tantric massage - various techniques and states, with demonstrations on a model
⁃ participants´ practice with each other
⁃ sacred ritual of yoni and lingam puja (Ritual of Honouring)
⁃ evening meditation to open the heart by the bonfire under the stars (or in case of rains in the pagoda with candlelight)
⁃ amazing vegetarian meals made of local organic products by a professional chef (gluten-free and lactose-free options are available)
⁃ comfortable rooms (2 people per room with private bath)
⁃ a cosy and warm Pagoda with a beautiful view for tantric massage practice
⁃ complete seclusion of the group - only nature will be around us
⁃ an opportunity to have a digital detox and disconnect from the phone for a few days
Important:
- the retreat will take place in English.
- for any level of experience, but it is important to be open and honest about your personal process.
- this retreat does not involve sexual practices.
- there will be an equal number of men and women in the group, so no one will be left without a couple.
- if you come in a couple you can practice together, if you come alone you will be pared with one of the participants.
- maximum of 18 participants (9 pairs).
- during the practice, the person receiving the massage will be naked (thongs are acceptable for women), the person giving the massage - in light clothes or underwear.
- during the practice each participant will go through their own personal process, there may be emotional releases, tears, screams or moans. Please allow both yourself and others to manifest freely and without judgement.
- everything that happens in practice will remain between us. Please be respectful with other peoples experiences and processes.
- sexual contact is forbidden during the retreat - even for the couples. I insist on it because it will lower energy levels and unbalance the space. After the retreat, you can make love as usual - and it will be a very different, a more vivid experience.
