Courage to Love – Tantric Winter Retreat

After an AMAZING and TRANSFORMATIVE ECSTATIC summer retreat in Skeppsudden we will meet again in this stunning venue, this time as a winter wonderland, discovering and celebrating light and warmth in times of darkness and cold – come join us! 🙂

4 days of life-enriching journey into the world of Tantra. A unique opportunity to share, discover and deepen yourself into new insights and experiences. The retreat is guided by highly experienced teachers Aurora & Konrad in the amazing countryside facilities of Skeppsudden, with pristine nature, beautiful sauna for cold winterdays and peaceful surroundings.

The Courage to LOVE
Everyone who ever loved deeply knows that true love doesn’t allow you to remain the same. Love has a deeply transforming power upon our entire being. We fear and run away from love because it asks this from us, to leave behind the old and open up to an adventure into the unknown. Often we tend to mistake love with the person or situation which triggered it, and in that moment we stop the experience of love and perceive love just as a concept in the mind.

The energy of love is described as an alchemical power that can, with the help of a pure and well-focused mind, turn any poison into nectar. In order to experience the transforming power of love we need to learn how to shift from thinking or mentalizing about love to deeply and fully EXPERIENCING IT. And the great news is that we do not need anything for this. Just the decision to OPEN.

Love makes a tensed body to relax and open up to pleasure.
Love makes a wounded heart to trust, heal and open again courageously despite any previous hurts.
Love makes the mind a vast and open space, peaceful and visionary.
Love helps us to build bridges and to experience union where there seemed to be only separation and difference.
Love brings meaning to our existence and gives purpose to everything we do.
Love is an energy we cannot force, but which we can learn to open to.

Many people fear love, and then passively close down. After these days, you will start to understand why keeping your heart open is the safest thing you can do.
Love, when it is experienced fully, allows that which seemed to be impossible to suddenly become possible.

Tantra and COURAGE
“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to ones courage” – Anais Nin
The tantric path has always highlighted the importance of courage. Tantra is a deeply transformative path that challenges the ego and our limited views, and in order to go beyond our fears we need the attitude of a hero. Most people do not really reflect on the way the presence or absence of courage affects their life. To live your life fully, you need to enter the heart of courage.

We need courage to be happy
We need courage to have beautiful relationships
We need courage to follow our path
We need courage to FEEL life
We need courage to heal
We need courage to be real and authentic
We need courage to transform
We need courage to be ecstatic
Courage is the real vaccine our world needs urgently. Anyone can become courageous.

During this retreat we will highlight the importance of courage in our life. In times like these, courage is becoming almost as important as the air we breath. Fears are closing so many hearts to love. Fears make us robotic, reactive, easily triggered and easily controlled by the outside. Every day we can see the effects of fear all around us, in so many ways. But when we learn to understand the role of fear, and the way it manifests in our life we can start to take actions in a different way. Courage is a muscle that we can train like any other.

We will explore the:
Courage to love
Courage to step into the unknown
Courage to be vulnerable
Courage to be really really happy
Courage to be ecstatic
Courage to forgive
Courage to play
Courage to keep your heart open
Courage to be intimate
Courage to accept feedback
Courage to overcome approval addiction
Courage to take responsibility for your life
Courage to accept the impermanence of life
Courage to keep the light of awareness ON
Courage as a key to spiritual growth

Our problem is almost never the fear itself, rather the way we relate to fear by avoiding, withdrawing, seeking control, worrying or falling victim to the mistaken belief that things will be okay only after we ́ve annihilated all the anxiety. Yes, fear can be uncomfortable and bewildering, and it can even thwart our most dearly held goals –but it doesn’t have to be so.

This retreat will be a refreshing breeze of inspiration, an impuls towards real change, real transformation in your life – a vitamin boost for your soul. You will get an understanding on how to begin to live your life more open, and free and not be conditioned by fears. Because courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear… Your very life!

If this inspires you and awakens a calling in your heart – you are mostly WELCOME to our Winter Retreat! It will be an open invitation for 4 days of spiritual holiday & heart work in a natural and relaxed unfolding of life’s essence and fullness. We look forward to sharing and unveil the mysteries on how to live our life more juicy, fully and vibrant!

Tantra & Sacred Sensuality
The body is a temple offering us an enormous potential of energetic experiences. We can explore it consciously through a great variety of touch, energy games, sensorial experiences or just a simple lucid awareness upon the breathing. There are infinite ways to awaken through tantra when first you know the basic methodology – we may even call it ‘human technology’.

Tantra & The Heart
At the heart of any spiritual celebration is always the spirit. It is the spiritual heart connection, which truly makes us feel connected. The body, its senses and magnificent aliveness of vibrant energies are offering us a great variety of possibilities to connect with each other and with ourselves, to offer fullfillment to each other and experience fullfillment in our own being, to offer loving presence and to experience love. Our Winter Retreat is an experience happening simultaneously inside and outside ourselves.

For whom is this retreat:
This retreat is open for anyone who wants to learn how to become more intimate and open and authentic in relating to others. Since we are focusing on intimacy as something that begins with YOU, with YOUR openness and willingness, it is very much an individual journey. The retreat is there for open for both singles and open minded couples.
This retreat is for people over 18.
