Our desire is sacred.
Our longing, is an echo of longing for the divine.

Often we feel desire as envy, as a drive to claim, command or control something externally. We might feel moments of pleasure in the conquest, only to feel the abandonment of pleasure moments, days or weeks later.
This is because fundamentally, desire is the drive to inner fulfilment. A drive to seek out the divine human experience that deep down we are all searching for and, in truth, is never not there.

Desire is a powerful drive that when channeled with intention can propel us into deeper relationship with our indestructible Self. Leading us closer to ourselves, and in relationship to others, community and the planet.

In this 3-day immersion, we dive into desire in its many forms:

• How to work with desire and trace it back to a point that allows for total expression of the fundamental and perfect self.

• How we might shake off the fears and doubts that prevent true longing from leading us back to lasting and enduring fulfilment.

• A reclaiming of energies that may have become misdirected, and how to direct them toward the unique flavour of YOUR deepest longings.

• We will explore practices that transmute stuck desire into free energy that can be openly directed into creativity, connection to others, connection to the divine, actions for the benefit of ALL beings, and deep beautiful integration of our orphaned parts.

The immersion will be steeped in discussion, Tantric philosophy, practices, and exercises to bring forth your hearts longing and methods to actualise.

The how:

• Yoga, free movement, mantra, meditation, yin and nidra.

• Creativity through various mediums including writing, painting, drawing and maybe even pottery!

This will be an epic event, held in community, nourished by practices and beautiful plant based meals.
