Mirror of the Heart - Couples workshop. Led by: Jan Day & Frieder Fischer
2 - 4 December, Florence House, near Brighton
This workshop invites couples to learn to live true to themselves while also
looking after their relationship. Healing happens because we rise above our fear
of failing, our fear of abandonment, piece by piece we let go of our suffering
and recognize that only our fear creates distance and heaviness around our
heart.
The workshop invites and entices you to let yourself be human, fallible,
passionate and vulnerable so that loving relationship is possible. You can learn
how to grow playfully out of whatever fears, guilt, shame and restrictive
beliefs spoil the pleasures of sexual loving for you.

Celebrating the Elements (gay)
Sunday 26th June
10am - 5pm
Moretonhampstead, Devon.
Cost: £45. Concessions £20.
Come and connect to the four elements: air, fire, water and earth within
yourself and within the earth. Come and connect to yourself as a creative,
elemental being. Come and share this celebration with others and with the land
around us. The 4 elements are considered in many spiritual traditions to be the
building blocks of all life. Whether or not you follow a spiritual path, this
workshop could be for you; if you have a desire to connect to yourself and your
creativity, and to the land around us. We will explore and honour the elements
using meditation, movement, sound, words, song, art and gentle, inclusive,
ceremony. At the end there will be an integration of all that we have explored,
as we honour the centre of the circle.
Sex Magic on the Moor (gay)
8th – 10th July
East Dartmoor, Devon.
Cost: sliding scale between £65 and £125. Includes basic food.
A small workshop held on the edge of Dartmoor with access to wild moors, stone
circle, woods and river. The intention is to deepen our connection with this
beautiful, ancient land. We will connect with the land and create a ritual that
comes from these connections and from the deep desires and needs of the group.
We will explore our relationship to our bodies, our sexualities and our
energies. We will develop basic sex magic tools: consent, awareness, working
with energy bodies and fields, merging and separating energies, channelling and
building power with intention. Participants will be encouraged to follow their
own paths through the workshop and develop the skills and experiences they need,
while being held and supported. We will spend time exploring our boundaries
around physical and energetic contact. There is an awareness that the last
couple of years may have changed these and that we may be tentative and need to
feel into ourselves slowly.
No-one will be asked to go beyond their comfort zones, although there will be
support for those who wish to explore areas that are new and potentially scary.

Non-refundable and non-transferable deposit of £100 is required to secure your

1. Bhakti Yoga, the path of devotion and love. The aspirant who walks this path realises that love is the fundamental energy of Creation, and by merging with it he or she becomes complete, infusing all areas of life with the intensity of their devotion.
2. Karma Yoga, is the path of perfectly integrated action consecrated to the highest. The karma yogi aims to fuse with the Universal harmony whilst working in the world. By selflessly offering himself in the service of others, he breaks the chains of Karma and sets himself free.
3. Raja Yoga, the royal path of perfect control over the mind, and the awakening of kundalini. Raja yoga is the path in which the aspirant practises techniques of meditation, and realises the supreme consciousness, which prevails over all aspects within and around the yogi.
4. Jnana Yoga is the path of wisdom and introspection. A path on which the aspirant embarks to fully understand the ultimate knowledge and realise how the truth shall set you free. The practice of Jnana yoga guides an examination of one's own mind to discover the true centre of who we are.
5. Tantra Yoga is the path of weaving all aspects of life into sublime experiences. By finding the meaning and sacredness of every moment, we discover that all areas of life exist on a background of ecstasy. It is a path in which the aspirant fully embraces sensorial experiences, the polar game and universal principles.

Breathe in the Air - a breathwork weekend with Andy
Avalon Permaculture Gardens, Barton Rd, Butleigh, Glastonbury, Somerset BA6 8TL
22nd - 24th July
Cost: sliding scale £190 - £160 according to ability to pay - Deposit: £60min
Conscious breathwork has roots in ancient Taoist and Yogic breathing
techniques and brings about deep clearing, release and healing. It was brought
to the West in the 70’s under the name of Rebirthing. This breathwork acts in a
direct, simple and safe way to free and release whatever prevents free flow of
energy and full presence on all levels of being - emotionally, energetically,
physically, mentally and spiritually. Through it you can enter into a profoundly
aware state of being - a heightened and grounded awareness of your body,
emotions and mind. On this weekend we will also be exploring other simple
breathwork techniques that help deepen awareness and develop clear focus.
This weekend workshop offers a safe space to experience conscious, connected
breathing as a newcomer to it or as someone who has practised for some time.

On this third year course we will go deeply into understanding the nature of being. The Tao of Human Being.

The Barefoot journey takes you beyond the limitations of social and family patterned identity into an expanded, yet centred sense of the life that this human animal / spirit being is living. This third year will take you further on your personal journey into living from the actual breadth of true personal and transpersonal self and help you develop your ability to guide others. There will be opening meditations to expand self awareness leading into the practices and processes that we have already studied and some new ones, but with a clear focus on understanding why we are using them and how they are working. There will also be time for in depth questions and clarification and in-depth enquiry.

How do you create and navigate exquisite journeys of liberation and surrender?
How do you support another human being in more fully inhabiting their physical
body and expanding into their energetic one? And how do you cultivate your inner
alignment so that you can offer a richer outer expression? Or perhaps you’ve
been practising Tantra massage for a while now –professionally or with partners
– and you’re wondering “What’s next?”
This week-long training Intensive takes you to the next level. It is not simply
about learning more tools and techniques, but about cultivating the inner
resources to share from the depths of your being. We take you on a journey to
explore the deeper and darker themes of the human experience, as well as
celebrating the heights and delights of the body through erotic embodiment.
Become an erotic maestro and learn how to take your partner – whether client or
lover – on deeper and more expansive journeys into themselves and beyond the
beyond.
Participants are invited to give and receive over the course of the week. The
skill of receiving is a beautiful gift to cultivate; whilst honouring your
boundaries at all times. No-one is under any requirement or obligation to
partner with someone or engage in an activity that does not feel good and right
for them.

Whilst BSDM has entered the mainstream sexual conversation, many people struggle to express their desires and experience enjoyable kinky encounters with their partners. Over the course of this weekend residential workshop, we will explore the intersection between erotic devotion and kinky play. This is not about fetish or paraphernalia but how we meet in dark erotic presence – in the body, in the breath, in the heart.
The space is “clothing optional” so it’s important that you feel comfortable with nudity even if you choose not to get naked yourself.

Healing from the Source - Vajrasattva Retreat
Brimpts Farm, Dartmeet, Devon.
November 4 - 11
Fee £700 (deposit £350. Numbers limited)
We each have within us an innate source of health, vitality and wisdom known as
our Buddha Nature. In the Tantric tradition we can awaken a relationship to this
source of healing through the practice of Vajrasattva. This retreat offers an
opportunity to experience the extraordinary nature of this way of healing. It
will combine the practices of Mahamudra and healing movement to enable the
liberation and transformation of the energy of emotions, stress and tension held
in the body. This year, particularly for those that have participated in
previous years, there will also be the development of the practice of Tumo.
Traditionally the practice of Vajrasattva is one of the preliminary practices
for Tantra. It is regarded as profound foundation of awakening to our innate
nature that can become a resource throughout our life. The process of movement
is important to enable a deepening of our capacity to transform and liberate our
emotional life. This also deepens the capacity for meditation and frees energy
that can become stuck in sitting practice. The practice of Mahamudra opens us to
the innate, pristine nature of the the mind and the experience of non-duality.
During this retreat we will also give time to develop the practices associated
with the cultivation of Tummo or "inner heat" and will be particularly
appropriate for those who have worked with Anna and Rob before. We will be
exploring the healing potential of this practice at is opens up our relationship
to the energy body.
This retreat is for those who have experience of meditation within the Buddhist
Tantric tradition, it is not considered an introduction for those without
experience. Anyone wishing to attend who has not worked with either Rob or Anna,
will be asked to meet or speak over Skype to see whether this retreat is
appropriate.
