Retreat 1 - Orgasmic Body (4 days)
This retreat guides you into rediscovering your potential of living life fully from the body, bypassing the protection mechanism of the mind that builds up bodily tension and a lack of love, as well as a sense of separation. The process restores your direct connection with life by awakening and exploring the life forces and the sexual flow in the body. It disarms the pelvis and sex from tensions and breaks breathing patterns with the aim to return to a natural breathing that bridges the body sensations with the heart. This process returns the spontaneity, vitality, and sensuality to the life energy and it restores the body’s ability for pleasure and sacred touch.
During the retreat we give you the space, situations and methods to trust your body-heart connection with deep pleasure and sensuality without the restrictive belief that love is pure and the body not. We offer you a ‘bed’ where love and the body can unit freely, blissfully, in order for you to come back into your pure state of sensual innocence.
The main areas of exploration:
– Unfolding your natural orgasmic body state
– Letting go of fear restricting deep pleasure
– Reviving the Sacred within
– Opening to orgasmic breathing
– Understanding mind-heart-body function
– Opening up your life to nourishing bodily relationships with yourself and others
What Pema shares about this retreat:
“We tend to live interpreting life from the mind. In this way we bypass the direct experience of life in the body. We don’t know anymore what an apple tastes like or what a kiss tastes like, because the experience is first lived in the mind. There our experiences are tainted with judgment: Good or bad, like and dislike, but never with wonder, unity. The ego is very much nourished; strengthen by this mind game while the body and the heart slowly die from desolation, abandon. It has a tremendous impact on how we relate with our body and the bodies of others. It creates a sense of separation that crystalizes into tension, numbness, and excitement too while it covers the heart with emotions such as anger, frustration, depression… In the long run, diseases of all kind appear without us understanding why.
The separation we suffer from leads us to make choices and decisions about our life, our relationships, and our work, which are totally out of touch with life, existence, love and consciousness. To come back to unity, to the marriage with existence within us, the body has to be explored as a temple by using the senses, the breath and sex as a doorway to the divine within and without. It allows the body to become a vehicle for the heart and no longer the slave of the mind. By linking ourselves to the heart and body, we can manifest love and creativity, transforming negativity, destructive behaviour that impede a re-union with life.
In the process we awaken the desire force, pleasure, and orgasm from the deep understanding that these are instruments of unity and not of separation. When these bodily instruments of oneness are awoken lovingly, consciously, they create a sacred inner ‘music’ -a harmony and bliss within us that allows us to embody a deep reverence for life. Making love, eating, dancing, resting, working… no matter which activity we perform, it then becomes a prayer uniting us with the depths of life…”
