Tantra & Intimacy

When sexual energy flows freely through our body, we love deeper, communicate better, become creative beings, and at the highest level we are able to experience truly spiritual states. Sexual energy is highly valued by Eastern cultures. For the followers of Kabbalah, lust is the deepest spiritual experience that a human being can experience. According to yoga philosophy, pure sexual energy remains dormant until it is awakened in its highest form known as kundalini. Tantra sees it as the vital energy necessary for good functioning in all areas of life, especially those related to creativity and action. Sexual energy makes us fertile, and not only in a biological sense. However, for this to happen, it must be well directed. And it doesn’t have to be sex. 

In this journey we will create a nourishing experience that permits each one of us to explore slowly out of our comfort zone in a safe container, into more tender honest emotional & erotic relating. With ourselves & with others

Our intention is to create a space of sensual heart connection, love, intimacy & tenderness. Let ourselves be guided by our curiosity, innocence, and love for life.

Feelings as the Source of Creativity

Feelings & Emotions can become our muse, when we allow ourselves to feel them fully. Whenever we pay attention to what is truly alive in us in every we begin to excess a source of infinite inspiration & creativity. Trough creative expression we can begin to alchemize everything back into beauty and love, celebrating our authenticity our humanness and the totality of our life experiences.

Vocal Freedom – Findung our Authentic Voice

Our voice is our first and most intimate instrument. It is a creative force that supports us to weave realities. It can be inspired by thoughts and the mind, or it can be purely an instrument of the heart. When we speak & sing from the heart our voice can become a gateway to our emotional body, supporting us to feel ourselves and each other again. In a playful way we will discover our authentic voice and the subtile dimensions of what wants to be expressed through us.

Cacao Ceremony

Cacao is one of these teacher plants that reconnect us to to power of our own hearts. It ignites our feeling sense, so we can experience our lives more through the body and less through the mind. Through ritual and prayer we connect to the medicine plant of Cacao to invite the magic in us to unfold in the here & now. As each moment is sacred and part of the ceremony of life, this specific „sacred space“ is an invitation to open ourselves to the magic of the profound and mundane moments of life.

Each ceremony will have a specific intention that supports us to reconnect deeper to the mystery and magic within. Through prayer, music, conscious movement and heart to heart connections we explore, how we can relate to ourselves, each other and life in a deeper way.

Ecstatic Dance

Music has the power to move us so we can begin to express ourselves from the inside out. During the Ecstatic Dance we invite the body to take the lead, to shake, to move and unwind ourselves from things that make us feel stucked. Each dance is an encounter with ourselves and a discovery journey into the depth of who we are in this now. Movement can become our prayer but also a portal the subconscious mind, that allows us to see what has been hidden behind the veils of perception. As we flow trough different frequencies & emotions, we free ourselves from all obstructions, so we can drop back into the joy of pure being.

Haptik aka. Pablo Giuggioloni & EllaVie will bring you back to the playground of your life inviting you to reconnect to the purest and wildest little child inside to celebrate this wild ride called life.
