Summary

Out of Time - Deep connection in the darkness

A 3-day retreat for couples who want to reconnect in an extraordinary setting, including 36 hours in complete darkness with optional InspirAreSoulTechnology coaching.

Freed from visual stimuli and everyday distractions, you are invited to meet each other in a new way - through presence, mindful touch, shared silence and deep listening.
Darkness is not a lack, but a gift: it activates your other senses and creates space for the essence of connection.

The retreat begins with optional individual sessions upon arrival to clear personal issues or dynamics. These sessions allow for emotional clarity and open the space for a new encounter.
This is followed by a 36-hour journey into the darkness - a protected, silent and sacred space where you meet without pressure and where closeness and inner contact are allowed to emerge naturally.

Each couple has their own bed and retreat. There is a shared bathroom.
You will receive two to three meals a day.

Encounters are conscious, voluntary and respectful - with clear boundaries and an introductory ritual.

This retreat is not a new sexual experience, but an encounter and appreciation of presence.
What emerges from this space is yours: Intimacy, clarity, emotion, love, deep connection - and, if it's right for both of you, sexuality too.

The retreat ends with a gentle return to the light and a closing circle to integrate the experience.

🌀 Coaching support: InspirAreSoulTechnology sessions with Alexandre or Mela (optional and recommended)

Before going into the darkness, each partner is invited to receive a 1:1 session with InspirAre Soul Technology. These one-on-one sessions create space to explore unresolved emotional patterns that often silently and unconsciously influence the relationship.
The sessions are based on inner child work, family constellations, regression and somatic awareness. They help to clear emotional baggage that we may be unconsciously projecting onto our partner.

🪶 When both partners each receive a session (one after the other), a space is created for deeper connection in the darkness - free from old entanglements and unspoken expectations.

Benefits of the sessions:
- You take responsibility for your own emotional field - and free your partner from it.
- You gain insight into unconscious protective patterns, wounds or emotional blockages.
- You create an inner foundation for real connection in the here and now.
- You restore emotional security - the basis for true intimacy.

This preparation enables couples to enter the darkness not as wounded children in reaction mode, but as conscious adults - able to see, feel and hold each other with an open heart.

The accompaniment MELA and ALEXANDRE
We have been accompanying people in the darkness for many years - in long retreats, in silent processes, in moments of deepest self-knowledge.
What guides us is not just method, but a deep trust in the inner path of each individual. For over five years, we have regularly opened up spaces for people who are ready to meet themselves.
Our aim is to provide a protected framework in which you feel safe and held - free to open up, feel, remember and change.
The darkness itself became our teacher:
It showed us how important it is to meet people where they really are. With empathy, clarity and a safe, energetically supported space, we accompany you - not over you, but by your side.
Our diverse training in personal development and therapy flows into our work - not as a technique, but as a lived experience:
Art Therapy, Family Constellations, Voice Dialogue, Nonviolent Communication and Tasso Transpersonal Regression Therapy (TRT).
What we bring is a space of presence, experience and compassion - so that you can meet your innermost self at your own pace.
