What is DESIRE?
A current that is often corrupted and confined to the arena of solely our sexuality.
A word that brings up narratives and deep discussions in some spiritual communities & monastic lineage traditions.
It has a charge - because in it lies power.
Desire is at the heart of our Humanness.
It is a pulse within that propels us forward.
According to Ancient wisdom is it is the language Life/The Universe/Reality uses to co-create with us.
It is power within us that can create our wildest dreams.
To Desire,
to yearn for...
long for....
an inner pulse
that causes an arising of the being
to move -
to take action.
DESIRE is the root of all movement, the arousal of Life energy to move forward.
We have long been trained to suppress desires. Both sexual and not. To play small. That Desires cause disruption and get us into trouble.... Encouraged not to day dream, to imagine, to crave for more.
Here we are going deeper, exploring Ancient Wisdom teachings and original spiritual lineages such as - Kashmiri Shaivism Traditional Tantra, Egyptian Mystery teachings and Trans-himalyan cosmologies. We are reframing, rewiring and reprogramming more truth in this realm.
Your Dreams, Your desires make you unique and when you learn to listen to them and follow the inner pulse you express your authentic, individual truth and this is what we need on this Earth. Everyone to bring ALL of themselves.
This 2 day training will enable you to listen in to the subtle currents of your desires within your Body, Heart, Soul, Eros (more on the different modules below.)
I desire to dive deep with you so that your inner wisdom becomes the ultimate compass for you to live your purpose and take effortless action in the direction of your wildest dreams.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Day 1:
Matters of BODY
Body as a source of wisdom and Bliss portal
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Learning to allow the body wisdom to really reveal itself, dropping deep into relaxation as the medicine the body relates to to Bliss through. Beginning with Tantric Yoga a slow, nourishing, tri-doshic asana practice that brings harmony and coherence into your nervous system (almost yin like but totally different). That teaches the mind to soften and let the body lead, not through force, but through ease. A reprogramming and re-patterning of mind & body relationship - expansion through relaxation, relaxation while in action.
Matters of HEART
Unlock deeper heart mysteries for inner power truth
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Heart Connection practices & Tantric Shamanic Journey into the realms of your Heart, learning to feel and respond to the subtle whispers of your deep longings. Your Deep Heart Desires, the pulse of your own rhythm, and express yourself from this place. Allow your heart to blossom open, allow your heart to dream & desire, opening up to all potential. Learn to speak Heart Truths and trust the subtle pulses from within. Trusting your no with courage, releasing your fear with Grace. Blue Lotus as support here if desired.
Day 2:
Matters of SOUL
Soul Desire - your unique purpose
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Shamanic journey & soul speak activation. Connect to the year ahead and what your Soul is bringing forth with you.
Safe space to listen to the soft whispers of your soul, tapping into the currents of Desire from the depths & heights of all that you are. Your cosmic humanness. Soul purpose clarity.
Matters of EROS
Recoding Eros as your language for Purpose
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Eros is corrupted as only linked to our sexuality, but in truth, according to many ancient texts your erotic life force current is a pulse of wisdom that pulls you towards more vitality, more peace. When recoded and tuned into, Eros - measured as aliveness in the body becomes a compass for your living more of best Life. When we listen to the Desires and trust our bodies natural erotic pulses towards and away - decisions become simple and Life has more flow & Grace.
