At home in your body - living sensuality and femininity
The power of your femininity - feel & discover
A journey to your lived sexuality, your body and your inner strength
May 10 - 15, 2026 | Women's circle on Corfu
A place where you can feel yourself
This week is an invitation to sink out of your head and into your body - into your center, into your depth, into your sensual experience.
Away from having to and functioning. Into what really moves you.
What do you feel - beneath your thoughts, beyond your roles?
What longings, questions, memories and powers reside within you?
In the warmth and vastness of Corfu, you can reconnect - with yourself, your body, your inner truth.
Soft and clear. Gentle and powerful.
Female sexuality - a space for development, remembrance and new beginnings
Female sexuality is more than pleasure or technique. It is a relationship - to one's own body, to one's own history, to the world.
It is changeable, learnable, healable. And it belongs to you - no matter what your experiences have been so far.
This week, you can look at your sexuality in a new light:
not as a function, but as an inner space of experience
not as a task, but as an expression of your wholeness
not as a fixed point, but as a path - with breaks, change and depth
You are invited to turn lovingly and attentively to your own sexual biography:
What have you learned - or never been allowed to learn?
What experiences have shaped the way you feel - consciously or unconsciously?
How has your sexuality changed over the course of your life - as a young woman, mother, lover, mature woman?
This look back is not a holding on - but a loving recognition.
And an invitation to give yourself new permissions and possibilities today - in your current phase of life.
Times of change, menopause, body image and sensual presence
Many things change, especially in turbulent times or during the menopause:
Hormones, sensation, energy, body image - but also closeness, touchability, relationship.
During this time, a powerful space of possibility arises that does not have to be reduced to "loss", but to change - and often also to maturation.
Here you can turn to your changed body with acceptance and curiosity.
It is not less beautiful, less worthy or less pleasurable - but different.
And it often speaks more delicately, quietly and clearly than before.
You can discover how sensuality, closeness, intimacy and arousal can be experienced anew when you become still, feel yourself - and listen to yourself again.
The erotic space - inspired by Dr. Angelika Eck
Inspired by the work of Dr. Angelika Eck, we explore sexuality as an inner space - not as a performance.
Her teachings combine physical, psychological and emotional aspects into a holistic path of development.
Key impulses of this work:
Sexuality is not a state, but a process
Pleasure can be learned because it arises in the nervous system, in breathing, in tension/relaxation
Arousal not only needs stimulation - but above all safety, permission, personal contact
Sexuality can take different forms: quiet, playful, deep, tender, wild, spiritual, playful, slow
This attitude creates a protected space for experience in which you can explore in a self-determined way:
What wants to come alive in you - sensual, physical, erotic, nourishing?
A circle for experience, not for expectations
You don't need a role, a goal or a 'finished' version of yourself.
Just the willingness to get involved - in movement, stillness, encounter.
A circle is created in which you don't have to do anything - and are allowed to do a lot.
We meet mindfully, without judgment, respectfully.
You determine your own measure. Everything is allowed - nothing has to happen.
Archetypes & inner parts - mirror of your femininity
Over the course of the week, you will encounter inner figures who will accompany you in your development:
the clarity of the Queen
the depth of the Wise Woman
the wild power of the lover
the vulnerability of the girl
the determination of the warrior woman
Structure-giving parts - such as focus, presence, demarcation - are also appreciated.
Not as "masculine", but as part of your inner balance between gentleness and clarity, between receiving and shaping.

Between the sky and the sea

During this week, you can arrive, let go, recharge your batteries - and powerfully remember who you are.
As a woman. As a sensual being. As a developing human being.
At the end of this week you will...
be grounded, alive, sensual and at home in your body
