You are already primed to make a commitment to love yourself more fully.\n\nI n tantra we learn to be present and aware with all that arises in us. To e mbrace all of our inner movements with presence and compassion. To both wi tness these inner movements and embody them fully. Tantra is a path of sel f love. \n\nWe will engage with some beautiful tantric practices that sho w us how divinely beautiful and lovable we truly are. Even the parts that are challenging and we deem less or even un-lovable. In practicing tantric self love\, we merge together so seamlessly light- and shadow work. \n\n There will be a sequel for this workshop\, called ‘Dear Lover’ on Dece mber 7th. Both workshops can be attended as a single individual or in part nership and stand on their own as a full workshop. Yet this one will be th e base for the next one. Because\, in our opinion\, self love is the base for all love. \n\nWe will be facilitating in English\, if you prefer to p ractice in Dutch\, there are usually enough other Dutch speaking participa nts to practice with. All ages\, levels of experience\, relationships stat uses\, backgrounds\, genders  and orientations are welcome. If you have a ny access needs\, let us know\, we will try to facilitate your experience. Also if money is an issue for coming\, contact us.\n\n \;\n\nWith lov e\,\n\nGigi &\; Nectar\n\nPS bring a childhood photo if you have it < \;3\n\nTickets\n\n—————————————————— ——————————————————————\n\nRoot &\;Rise GUIDELINES\n\nIf you join this workshop you agree to respect an d uphold the following guidelines:\n\n PRIVACY\n\n“What happens in the tantra workshop\, stays in the tantra workshop”. Not exactly\, we ask yo u to be mindful about sharing about your experiences with others. You may share about only yourself and your experience and not about others you’v e witnessed in the workshop. Not by name or any other way that others may recognize or infer their identity.\n\n RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOURSELF\n\nEve ry instruction is a suggestion. You are your own boss. You are responsible to be aware of and express your boundaries. You will be invited to feel i nto that.\n\nYou are also invited to take care of your needs. If you need self-regulation you can always take a pause in the time-out space or ask r equest support/vo-regulation from a spaceholder.\n\nYou are also not respo nsible for anybody else. Sometimes participants can get triggered or emoti onally moved. They get to ask for support if that is wanted. This can be a very enriching experience. No need to rescue anybody.\n\n SAFETY &\; CONSENT\n\nWe ask for consent before going into touch or intimate interact ion. We respect consent and the fact that anybody can always change their minds.\n\nYou take care of your own sense of safety. We will offer differe nt tools to make this more accessible (like the time out space\, available support and the traffic light system).\n\n FREEDOM\n\nYou are on your ow n journey. We explore and experiment with behaviours and experiences that can be out of our comfort zones or outside the scope of our usual patterns . This can be vulnerable. So we want to emphasize the freedom to do so. Th e freedom to try something out without it having a lot of meaning about wh o you are.\n\nSecondly we want to take away the forming of meaning about c onnections. You can have an intimate connection with another participant i n the workshop. It can be tempting to add meaning to this or to want to fo llow up on this. As if the specialness of the experience is about the othe r person or your chemistry. We want to invite you to take in the experienc es you have as just a part of your own journey. To let it live in the work shop.\n\n————————————————————— ———————————————————\n\nGuidelines &a mp\; Information for the Tantric Moments \n\nBelow you will find the guid elines and practical matters to ensure we can come together in a safe sett ing and in harmony with one another.\nPlease read these guidelines in adva nce and check within yourself if you can agree with them. If not\, please contact us.\n\nThe Basic Safety Guidelines:\n\n You are stable enough to take responsibility for yourself.\n Everyone in the group deserves discre tion\, as well as what is shared and experienced. Do not talk about the ex periences of group members outside of the session\, and certainly do not m ention any names. You are free to share your own experiences and the offer ed structures with others.\n Respect your own boundaries and feelings. Re spect the boundaries of the other participants.\n You take responsibility for yourself\, and others do the same. This creates safety\, allowing you to purely explore your part of the relating.\n Boundaries and desires ar e two different things: Do not cross your boundaries to accommodate others ’ desires. And do not expect others to cross their boundaries to fulfill your desires.\n You can (even if unsure) step out of an exercise or work with another partner (for example\, an assistant). If you notice that you no longer wish to do an exercise with the partner you are currently worki ng with\, communicate this.\n You do not have to justify yourself\, even if someone in the group asks for an explanation.\n Try to remain curious and open\, even if you have a painful or difficult experience\, or if you feel resistance. Often\, these experiences offer the most interesting and transformative insights about yourself.\n All exercises are done clothed\ , and men also keep their tops on.\n If your intention to participate in the evening is for sex or dating\, this is not the right setting. We ask y ou not to come with this intention. If it is not your intention but it is on your agenda\, reflect on this consciously and bring it as a subject for your own exploration.\n If an exercise arouses sexual energy for you\, a nd you want to pursue it\, take responsibility when working with a partner with whom you do not share these feelings outside the setting. Option 1: Share your feelings with this partner and check if it is mutual and/or wel comed. Option 2: Relax with the feelings\, enjoy them\, but keep them to y ourself and do not act on them.\n You are free to leave the workshop\, bu t for the safety of the team and the group\, it is important to know that you are leaving in a good way. Therefore\, do not leave the session withou t informing the facilitator or one of the assistants.\n Tantric Moments d oes not exchange personal data of participants. We also recommend not doin g this after just one meeting. Meet again (spontaneously) in the same fiel d if there is a mutual connection. After several meetings\, you can exchan ge information if you both wish to. The desire to contact someone after a special meeting is very human\, but it also offers an opportunity for inne r exploration and reflection.\n\nIf you cannot agree with the above guidel ines\, please cancel your participation and/or contact us.\nIf you agree\, then you are welcome to join us this evening!\n\nAnd now the practical ma tters:\n\n Be on time! You are welcome 30 min before the event starts\n Latecomers are not welcome to ensure a safe and calm atmosphere.\n Wear l oose clothing that is comfortable and allows you to move freely.\n We are (usually) in studio 10 at EdanZ. If itś in a different location\, it wil l clearly say so in the event text.\n After we finish\, the central space is often locked\, so we leave the building through the end of the hallway . This means it may be impractical to leave belongings in the central spac e.\n The dressing room next to studio 10 will be locked during the worksh op\, so your belongings are safe there.\n There will be a 15-minute break halfway through.\n Please indicate if you need to go to the restroom so you can check if the timing is convenient. It is disruptive if your partne r or the entire group has to wait for you. Usually\, a suitable solution c an be easily arranged.\n Shoes are not allowed in the session room.\n Te a and water are available.\n\nWe look forward to experiencing another very special session with you!\n\nWarm regards\,\nThe Tantric Moments Team\n\n https://hipsy.nl/event/130299-tantric-afternoons-english-self-love ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://tantricmoments.com/wp-content/uploads/20 25/10/IMG-20251014-WA0028.jpg CATEGORIES:Gigi,Nectar END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
