Tantra for Young Parents
Work less. Feel more. Growing together - as parents, as a couple or with yourself.
A tantric experience for all of those for whom being a parent is a priority. Regardless of the age of the children.
1 to 12 times a year – 10 times online, 2 times live in Heidelberg
As a mom or dad, we are constantly faced with the challenge of mastering everyday family life and work while also wanting to carve out time for ourselves and our loved one(s). Using this time still awake and fully present is one of the longings that so many parents share.
This is exactly where we want to support you with “Tantra for Young Parents”. We all yearn for real connection, we want to be seen and loved exactly as we are. And of course, this kind of connection is possible at any time. If we remember this as our truth, we can feel this love emanating from within us. And then we might also see it reflected more and more by the people around us. Let this online experience be your reminder of this universal love available for everybody! 🙂
“Tantra for Young Parents” is not a classic tantra course. It is an invitation to more intimacy, genuine closeness, active self-care and spiritually based parenting.
Whether you are in a partnership or a single parent: This format is for you. We take a close look both at what challenges us as parents and at what makes us happy.
The focus is always on yourself: the conscious connection to yourself and to the one sitting opposite you. And when the children run through the picture in the Zoom call, or when they are relaxed while being nursed to sleep or when the older ones among them watch curiously what mom and dad are doing, that is exactly how it can and should be: connection is possible, at any time!
Tantra, and therefore also our annual training for parents, is primarily about feeling yourself, being there for yourself and accepting yourself with everything that is. Children cannot learn to observe this attitude to life early enough.
And if these new perspectives, thought-provoking impulses and ways of feeling give you more space for your inner fire, liveliness and joyful being, this may be just the right moment for a babysitter. He/she is not needed for the online sessions of Tantra for Young Parents (unless you cannot concentrate well on yourself and/or your partner in the presence of the children). Breathing practice, tantric thoughts and impulses, meditation techniques – if it doesn’t put the kids to sleep, particularly curious ones might even join in. 🙂
At the Lives in Heidelberg, the children should be taken care of by somebody else so that you can really concentrate on yourselves as a couple for a whole day.
You are also welcome as a single parent – whether you want to meet other parents or spend some conscious time with yourself.
Together as a group we will be reminded: We are not alone with what keeps us busy as parents. And that can be very relieving.
Tantra for Young Parents – the essence of our journey
In 12 lovingly designed sessions – 10 online, 2 live – you will be gently introduced to the tantric posture: a posture of mindfulness, presence, conscious touch and compassion.
Our offer is aimed at all parents who long for depth, liveliness and ease in family life – regardless of the age of their children. Wild, free, curious and full of childlike joy in their hearts. That’s what it’s all about.
Our approach
Experience with us how mindful touch, conscious communication and shared rituals can enrich your relationships and harmonize your family life. Our exercises are practical and easy to integrate into your everyday life so that you can also experience new forms of connection with your children.
Joy, known as children’s book author Sandra Schindler and author of the non-fiction book “Feeling Loved“, brings in needs-oriented, heart-open and spiritual perspectives.
Together with Thomas, a tantric Buddhist teacher, we connect our paths – for loving parenthood and conscious partnership.
We place particular emphasis on authenticity, mindfulness and strengthening your inner resources.
Our training supports you in recognizing and dissolving old patterns and strengthening your intuition in order to grow as a couple and family.
Dive with us into a journey towards more intimacy, trust and joy. Discover how you can make your love grow as parents, building a deeper connection with each other and your children. If you don’t have a partner at the moment, our exercises and impulses can help you to open up to a new relationship without forgetting yourself or the children.
You can book all sessions flexibly and individually – or experience them as an in-depth annual training. You can join at any time.
Whether alone or as a couple – you are welcome, just the way you live and love right now.

This seminar is an invitation to rethink and “refeel”: look at stress from a different perspective and discover everyday life with all its possibilities for humanizing or being human as a gateway to magical worlds. And you don’t need to develop any special skills to do so. Magic lives in all of us!
Tue, 28.4.26, 20:15-21:45 – Tantra for Young Parents 4 (Online): “Rediscovering sensuality – intimacy in transition“
How does parenthood change sexuality? We talk about taboos, challenges and new ways of living intimacy – without pressure, but with a lot of care, mindfulness, lightness and joy. A small, subtle insight into the world of the kind of ecstasy that has its origins in slowness.

No matter what type of achiever you are, we will help you find balance and clarity so that you can make space for all aspects of your life.
Tue, 29.9.26, 20:15-21:45 – Tantra for Young Parents 9 (Online): “Trust and devotion – strengthening security and safety“
For many of us, the greatest longing and at the same time the greatest challenge is the balancing act between the desire for freedom and the need for security. This applies to both the couple relationship and the parent-child relationship. How do we manage to create a basis of trust and devotion in which we feel secure, safe and loved and yet free at the same time and can pass this feeling on to our loved ones?

Experience a deep, communal closure that inspires you to keep love and mindfulness alive in your everyday family life. With touching exercises, meditations and a ritual that crowns your journey.

Joy S. is a musician, author and specialist in self-love. As an intuitive guide, she helps people find the courage to discover their innermost longings and face their shadows. She is particularly interested in parenting taking into accound the needs of everyone. As children’s book author Sandra Schindler, she has already published several books on heart-open parenting, with more to follow. She wrote her latest non-fiction book, “Feeling Loved”, with her co-author Kirsten Gottwald especially for mothers, but fathers also benefit from the knowledge about the connection between self-love, femininity and the balance between family life and “just being human”. Together with her husband Thomas, she provides a safe space for deep tantric experiences and supports participants in their self-healing process.
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.
A little side note: YouMeUnity – School of Love & Freedom is a place for personal development, self-awareness and guidance.
Our offers are for inspiration and self-exploration and are not state-recognized training courses.
