We are excited and honored to offer this 6-day journey on one of the most essential themes; one which moves us on so many levels and holds a key towards our integration of love, sex, intimacy & freedom. 

Freedom and love are like two wings of a great bird; a bird that cannot live unless it is able to fly.  Have you ever considered how they are related?  Are you ready to unravel the mystery?  

Unlike other paradigmatic forces- yin & yang, masculine & feminine, light & dark, good & evil- freedom & love don’t strike us as strictly oppositional, except for one aspect of our human reality- intimate relationships.  

This workshop is designed with one main purpose- to get to the heart of the struggle between the search for deep, loving intimacy and the longing for the lasting feeling of freedom within that intimacy.  Owing to the gravity of this central question we have to start where we are; with inquiry: Am I more identified with freedom or love? Am I more resistant to freedom or love? What does freedom look like in the context of deep intimacy? How can I love totally while honoring deep commitments to myself? 

“Love has to be of the quality that gives freedom, not new chains for you; a love that gives you wings  and supports you to fly as high as possible.” ~Osho

“Unless meditation is achieved, love remains a misery.  Once you have learned how to live alone, once you have learned how to enjoy your simple existence, for no reason at all, then there is a possibility of solving the second, more complicated problem of two persons being together.  Only two meditators can live in love- and then love will not be a koan.” ~Osho

As we want to go to the heart of the issues that divide us from each other and from ourselves, we are looking for participants who want to celebrate and at the same time, to go deep! We will:

• Use the Tao & Tantra precepts to create a vital, healing space where relating creates transformation
• Use rite, prayer and meditation to create rituals of ecstasy, beauty and truth
• Learn how love and freedom are at the foundation of our most deeply held beliefs about relationship
• Experience how responsibility is a door to freedom and freedom is a gateway to connection
• Use inquiry, one-to-one relating and ritual to resolve repetitive mistakes in relating
• Use sensuality, touch, massage, music and our unique environment to evoke primal passions
• Use meditation to penetrate those primal mysteries and compassion to resolve old belief patterns
• Learn to use depth of feeling as a tool to discover and liberate deep longing for connection
• Experience the necessity of aloneness in relationship
• Learn to tap universal reserves of energy to create a life that is a work of art

If you have worked with us before you will recognise the container we create together to provide a safe foundation for joy, openness and transformation, in which we learn:

• Why sexuality is sacred
• Simple exercises for health, vitality and relaxation
• About men’s and women’s orgasms
• Techniques of self-awareness and pleasure
• To accept limitations and reject outdated self- perceptions
• To create depth, spaciousness and potential in relationship
• To become aware of one’s longing for authentic expression
