Faithfulness and Freedom – a tantric weekend seminar
For couples and practicing couples
Friday, 11 October to Sunday, 13 October 2024
Some of our most important weekend topics:
The highest art of sexual union is when a couple enters the state of timelessness together and for a moment merges with all that is. You lose yourself in order to meet yourself and the other one on another plane. If we merge fully with each other, ecstasy as a basic feeling remains a constant part of our lives.
It is particularly important for us to strengthen you as a couple. During all of the tantric exercises we’ll be doing together, you have the opportunity to do them in a protected environment, meaning: just the two of you – or you can, if you both agree, choose to experiment with others. You can make this decision anew every day, and you are welcome to make a completely different one every time. Just go with what you both feel most comfortable with in the here and now.
FAITHFULNESS AND FREEDOM
- Love and freedom for yourself and your partner
- Physical, mental and emotional presence
- Energy balance in the relationship
What does loyalty really mean? Can I be faithful with my partner when I devote myself to somebody else? What about the emotional side of it? When I focus my energy on someone else in a loving way, will that be the beginning of the end of my relationship? What does love and freedom really mean – and how can I cope when demons from the past are dug up from deep within me with regards to my partner? Is jealousy a relationship killer – or perhaps even the key to more depth than ever before?
Playful tantric body exercises will help you explore the topic of needs, attraction, loyalty and belonging. We will all explore our own inner critics and embrace them lovingly. How much freedom, how much intimacy do I, does my partner need? What does this mean for our relationship and how do we want to live this as a couple?
We venture into unknown territory together, moving out of our comfort zone, and practise trust and letting things happen. We look at the planes on which we feel safe as a couple and strengthen this safety with the help of powerful tantric exercises. We also learn how to master the balancing act between the need for freedom (in ourselves and in others) and the yearning for commitment.
It is wonderful to merge with your partner and become one on all planes. But if we become too close, too much “one”, there is no other to ignite our curiousity, nobody else with whom we can marvel at the differences between the You and the Me. Therefore we practice making ourselves as independent of the other one as necessary, but only as much as possible, so that it feels good for both. By taking steps in different directions (which doesn’t necessarily have to be on the sexual plane), we paradoxically create more harmony and a common path becomes clearly visible.
In this seminar we consciously play with fire and explore ourselves and our loved ones in contact with somebody else. This can happen on the mental, energetic or of course the physical plane, depending on what you’re both ready for. To open up more to life we will be using strengthening rituals and exercises both for ourselves and for us as a couple. This way, both of you will be able to feel more peace, calm and relaxationy, which you can then take home with you and integrate it into everyday life.

May this tantric weekend seminar give you more trust in your relationship as a couple. Not despite, but precisely because nothing is certain in life. The more you are true to yourself and your beliefs, wants and needs, while at the same time lovingly recognizing and respecting the loved one’s needs as much as possible, the freer and closer your bond will become and the stronger your love and trust for each other will be. “Faithfulness and Freedom” is designed for couples and couples practicing together. Love & Freedom Tantra by YouMeUnity is based on traditional Kashmiri and Tibetan teachings combined with modern sexual psychology.

As YouMeUnity, we are offering to accompany you on your journey to yourself. We enjoy it so much to see people arrive at their innermost core. In doing so they are getting ready to embrace one or several relationships that can last and that are honest, deeper than ever before and 100 % heart-open. Such a secure bonding includes honest and appreciative communication, an open heart and a readiness in everyone involved to fully love themselves – and by doing so, learning to love everyone and everything on this beautiful planet, too. Self-confidence, courage, authenticity and embracing what is are also part of this – as well as accepting everything about yourself, even those character traits that you are not particularly proud of. And, of course everything that reminds you of your innate Buddha within yourself.
