Testimonials and Press Reports
in May 2024
I found it a wonderful, very intensive weekend that showed me that I am basically on the right path with tantra.
I regret having found it so late, but better late than never.
I was impressed by the amount of energy that accompanied me all the way home. And then it was really hard to have to immerse myself in this other world again, to no longer feel this warmth and closeness everywhere, to not be able to hug someone when I felt like it, and so I missed you all and your impulses very much (and still do).
I’m trying to keep up my morning exercise and meditation, as it has done me a lot of good. I would like to continue to feel the peace that I have always felt in your seminar room. I’m also looking at when I can come back, but it’s not easy to plan at the moment, probably more spontaneous.

I am so grateful to you and all the people yesterday for your support, for holding me when I felt so scared. Being connected, even when there is fear or sadness, and being able to have healing experiences in this is new for me.
I am deeply grateful to you and also to Mama Kakao, who supported me in speaking words from my heart today.
With much love and gratitude,
Joana

Dear Joy, dear Thomas,
brief feedback: I can hardly find words for the state I’m in. The following words can only partially capture my experience. In am amidst this wonderful, soft and powerful trust-fullness-glow-heart-warrior-goddess state that I am in, which is ever expanding. I could bubble over with feelings of happiness and at the same time enjoy sinking softly and deeply into myself and my self-confidence.
All the best and see you soon,
Jana

Dear Joy, dear Thomas,
Thank you very much for the great and profound experience for me on Friday and Saturday! A smaller group also has advantages and the topic of control was perfectly chosen and implemented very well through various exercises. I feel braver than before and that’s really good. And I continue having the impression that what you’re providing is a very protected space in which I can open up more and more. Many thanks for that!
A slightly different testimonial: YouMeUnity in a podcast
Tantra as a meeting space and empowerment playground for women and men
Joy that can be heard: Jana Pfeffer, author, illustrator and systemic coach, talks about her participation in a retreat with us (in German language). The interview with Joy for the podcast Herzensspielplatz (“Heart Playground) is about tantra, love, freedom, (sexual) energies, relationships, femininity, prejudices, fears, courage and the beauty of being human.
Also going right into your ears: double bubbly, effervescent joyful energy of two women who let both their inner children and the crones speak to each other. Click here for the episode. Have fun listening
So much has happened recently. I can feel how the energy in me has changed after the evenings with you. The day after a seminar, I feel very tired, everything reorganizes itself and then I see the changes in the outer world, too.
And yet, I am also very grateful to my guards for always being on duty, as my light was often misused or I allowed it to be misused in the past. My guides serve as antennae to make me see clearly whether what I would like to show of myself will be respected or not. I have become more cautious.
This is another reason why I am so grateful for the safety and respect I feel when I am with you. When I am in your safe space, I can feel the joy deep within me and my guards can take a rest.
Dear Joy, I would like to say thank you again for this for me
very special weekend that I was able to experience. Still having an effect and
I hope it stays that way for a while. It's great that you can
you have made possible. I have really bonded remarkably with our group
felt, with everyone. It really is a wonderful experience.
Hey Joy, I would like to try to put my gratitude for you into words, that I feel towards you: thank you for showing yourself, with everything that makes you who you are,
a woman who is so strong, emphatic and feminine at the same time, who lives her vulnerability, is authentic and can show her boundaries at the same time. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU <3
I was allowed to take so much with me and realize so much for myself and it still resonates so much in me .... so beautiful and so clear: I already have everything in me ..... I can allow myself to live ..... my "yes" and my " no".
Dear Joy, dear Thomas,
Friday evening was wonderful. It was a very special group that came together with you. Many thanks to you for the fantastic company and atmosphere.
When we gathered around the candle again, I took a look at us from above and felt such deep joy, gratitude and hope that we had managed to create a peaceful space despite all the personal crises and the world. You are doing very well.
Not tantra in focus, but also femininity - YouMeUnity in the podcast again

I just wanted to leave a lovely greeting and say that I would actually like to spend every weekend with you and that I really miss this space and you and this energy in me right now and think to myself: “Oh man, why don’t I live around the corner, why do I live so far away?”
I’m really regretting that I have a lot of appointments in the near future and won’t be able to attend ConsciousTouch again for a couple of weeks – that’s such a long time, but I definitely want to be back again soon.
I would like to share with you how I felt after last weekend: It was awesome. After the seminar, I was totally exhausted, but when I woke up the next day, I thought: “Hey, something’s different!”
I was still or again in this apartment with all the familiar triggers, this apartment in which I sometimes felt so bad when depression had hit me strongly only a few months earlier. But this time something was different.
And then it dawned on me: “Oh, how amazing, I am not sad anymore!” Or at least not as much as before. That doesn’t mean that when I think about what happened in my past, it’s not sad anymore, but that heaviness inside me has lifted. My smile is different and when I look in the mirror, I just look at myself differently.
The seminar I attended was about self-love. I might be mistaken, but I really have the feeling that I look in the mirror and see that I love myself more than I did before. And I mean it. It’s really interesting: When I look myself in the eye, I have a different attitude towards life. So thank you again for that. Thank you for everything.
Dear Joy, dear Thomas,
I often think of you and your loving and beautiful home. My stay in Heidelberg with the concerts, walks in the thriving city and surroundings and above all the time with you in this cozy atmosphere has had a wonderful and surprisingly strengthening effect on me. I returned home with a much lighter heart. And it's still holding on! I am very grateful to you.
You are unique people. All you do to help people make their lives better. In doing this, you're also helping the environment.
My trip to Heidelberg this time was a new and refreshing experience.
With Kind Regards
Aira
PS: The systemic constellation seminar was such an important experience for me. I was deeply moved by it. Thank you for letting me take part in it.
It always does me so incredibly good to be with you and to immerse myself in your enchanted world for at least a little while, allowing me to leave the stress of everyday life behind me.
I felt very comfortable with you and as if I had arrived home. Yesterday morning I was still enjoying the feeling. I wish I could spend more time with people like you, because you just allow me to be! Thank you! You make the world so much brighter.

I like to say it again and again: I am so incredibly grateful to you for opening up these protected spaces and holding them with your love. And I am grateful that I can experience and learn so much with you and that I am touched and allowed to touch so much. It’s just so beautiful! I’ve realized how light and carefree I can suddenly be – and how much has happened since I first walked through your door, even though it was only a few months ago. I have come so much closer to myself. The first few times with you, I didn’t even know if I could or wanted to be touched (because of my own history) and now everything is suddenly so free and I can sit there and be so happy and give so much and that is so beautiful and really: thank you two so much, it is so valuable what you do and I always feel so at home with you and accepted with everything I bring – no matter what it is. At the moment it feels like I could come to ConsciousTouch every Friday. 🙂
Testimonial from November 2022
The event was great. My girlfriend and I both thought it was pretty cool. She was able to let herself go and I realize that by participating in events like the Samhain Special I can increase my self-love and I also noticed that my third eye opened more – I had a premonition during the session, which then came true in exactly the same way. a lot happened and it is always the case that after such intensive encounters you have food for the soul for days or even weeks, with the help of which you can take a step further towards transformation. I am very grateful to you both for that.
