The theme "Like being reborn"
In the feedback after the tantra vacation, we often hear from participants: "I feel like I've been reborn." And it is precisely this theme that runs through the entire seminar. On the one hand, there is the narrow, stony path to the seminar venue, which winds like a birth canal, at the end of which the finca emerges like an oasis. On the other hand, there are rebirthing sessions (see below), which make it possible to relive and integrate childhood experiences. There are close connections with the other people in the group, in which you feel safe and accepted. And there are visions for a different way of shaping your own life.
Western therapeutic tantra
Tantra is a spiritual teaching originating from the Hindu-Buddhist context, which developed a world view from experiences thousands of years ago that we can only prove scientifically to a certain extent today. It is about polarities (e.g. male + female, plus + minus) and the resulting energy that can be used for spiritual growth. Chakras, kundalini and hatha yoga are other terms and forms of exercise that have emerged from tantra. The combination of traditional tantric teachings and rituals with our western culture and modern knowledge has resulted in very effective exercises that can bring about profound changes and transformations. About two days of the seminar and some of the supporting activities are dedicated to tantric rituals and exercises. The musician Sting says about tantra: "... it's about reconnecting with the world of the spirit through everyday things."
Water tantra
Weather and local conditions permitting, we will offer water tantra in the finca's heated pool on one day. The weightlessness in the water will be used for intensive physical experiences and trust exercises.
Kundalini Tantra Yoga & Hatha Yoga
Awakening the Kundalini energy plays a major role in Tantra. Kundalini is a form of latent bioenergy, our innermost life energy, which is connected to sexual energy. Tantric exercises and rituals aim to stimulate the kundalini and thus achieve greater vitality and, on a spiritual level, union with the cosmic forces. We practise and teach a dynamic form of yoga developed by the Balinese yogi and tantra master Sri Jaya Sakti, Kundalini Tantra Yoga, as well as the well-known Hatha Yoga.
Tantra massage
Serious tantra massage is a form of the ritual art of touch in which the whole body is touched and massaged. It honors the human body and the human being in its entirety. During the seminar there will be several massage sessions in which the basics of tantra massage will be taught.
Rebirthing and breathing exercises
Breath plays an important role in many spiritual traditions, because certain states of consciousness can be achieved through the conscious use of breath. The breath is also used to direct energy in tantra. Rebirthing (or integrative breathing) uses a specific breathing technique that leads to deep relaxation and introspection. Repressed feelings can be looked at and accepted, releasing energy. During the seminar there will be a guided rebirthing session as well as several breathing exercises.
Laughter yoga
Numerous studies have proven the positive effects of laughter on body and soul. With Angela and Felice, we have two experienced laughter yoga trainers in our team who will make us laugh together again and again with the typical laughter yoga exercises.
Meditations and body-related exercises
In addition to the meditation and yoga offerings at the resort, we will also be offering meditative exercises, most of which are very body-related (e.g. Kundalini meditation, etc.). They can be easily mastered by any participant.
Leisure program
In addition to the seminar, there is the opportunity for further joint and individual activities, including a dolphin tour, use of the pool and beach as well as swimming, sunbathing and snorkeling. You can also take part in the finca's meditation program.
