“Splendid integration of ancient tantra, with modern psychology, systemic work and body work.”— PASCAL, PARTICIPANT LEVEL ONE TRAINING
* Go beyond the limitations of your ego
* Let go of control and become alive
* Restore the relationship with your body
* Feel connection and love
* Let your vital energy flow
In this foundational Tantra training we’ll explore what it’s like to be aware and at the same time fully engaged with life.
We explore how we can find peace inside whilst at the same time be fully intimate with all aspects of life. No withdrawal in the Himalayas or on your meditation cushion, but engaging with life as it is.
“In my opinion everyone should do this at some point in their lives. It’s so very deeply nourishing, powerful and healing to meet and (re)connect to yourself, to others and to life itself. While being in the very best hands, I experienced the electric life energy through all aspects of my being. ”
— MARIJNTJE, PARTICIPANT LEVEL ONE TRAINING
In essence the one experience is no better or worse than the other - as humans we add judgement to our experiences. We evaluate everything into Good, Bad or Neutral. This makes us dependent on circumstances; we’re constantly trying to make things good and better in order to be happy.
Although it’s understandable that we want to be in control, it takes a whole lot of our energy and blocks the free flow of our life. In trying to manage life according to what we believe it should be like, we start to miss freedom, we feel contracted and tensed, numb or disconnected.
In Tantra we don’t use this understanding to cover our feelings, our pains, our habitual patterns, our fears, our projections, our bliss…. We start with acknowledging that we are humans and that we have projections and emotions and that we grasp onto nice experiences and reject the nasty ones. This all needs to be seen, felt and explored. But the question is: What is happiness and how does trying to gain it block our aliveness?
With curiosity, love and gentleness we practice how to be present moment to moment. We move through life knowing that we have an opportunity to be connected, open, compassionate, abundant, still and spontaneous.
We connect with both the simplest of things and the most intense; we are with the ever changing vibrancy, the mystery of life.
WHAT WILL BE OUR VOCAL POINT IN THIS TRAINING?
* Awareness practice - how to sit and let everything arise and subside?
* The ego structure - why do we act the way we do and how can we live beyond the limitation of the ego?
* Feelings and emotions - how to be with anger, sadness, fear and numbness?
* Aliveness - how to be truthful and engaged?
In exploring these themes we will work with meditation, breath, inquiry, writing, visualisation, sharing and contemplation.
FOR WHOM IS THIS LEVEL ONE TRAINING?
This foundational training is for you if you long to be intimate with yourself and others. If you want to live a free, joyous, truthful life and if you’re willing to explore all aspects of yourself, including your shadow parts and hidden desires.
The training has no prerequisites. However if you would like a little taster first, then please join one of our introduction workshops.
Our Level One training is suitable for both the beginning practitioner and the accomplished one and offers a beautiful stepping stone to our Level Two Tantra Training.
YOUR TEACHER
Mirjam holds a master in Psychology and is trained as a coach specialized in working with language of the body. For 20+ years she studied and practiced Dzogchen (Tibetan Buddhism) mainly at Rigpa and with Jan Geurtz. Nowadays her main interest lies in Śaiva Tantra, studying and practicing these profound teachings with Hareesh Christopher Wallis and Daniel Odier.
“There’s grace in the process of opening to our authentic beauty. I feel fortunate and grateful that I can provide people a safe space for exploring, releasing and expanding. Over and over again I feel a sense of wonder if I see people courageously open up to their true nature; fully embodied, intimate with all of life’s flavors”.
“Mirjam lives what she preaches and has a lot of knowledge regarding her field. I was impressed.”
