ABOUT

We all carry fears and some sort of traumatic memories that don´t allow us to fully open up to life, pleasure and love.  To heal and recover all of our energy, we need to go back to the point where we lost contact with it.​​ In this retreat you will consciously enter into a process of rediscovering and reprogramming your history around pleasure and sexuality.

THE EROTIC
BODY RETREAT

WHAT´S THE EROTIC BODY RETREAT ABOUT

A wake-up call

to the erotic body

Waking the erotic body up is waking up to life: to pleasure, to adventure, to spontaneity.

What to expect...

This retreat is the opportunity to delve deep into the story of your life, understand the point where you lost touch with your most natural energy and take that fluidity back into your body and connections.

emotional
mastery

Feel!! We shut down our feelings by the time in our history when a certain situation became too intense cope with. Feeling again: the body, sensations and emotions is the way to free ourselves from the prison of these old emotional patterns. Creating internal space to deal with the different emotional colors and spectrums that life will allways bring to us - is the premise to heal our relationships and the way we live sexuality.

sexual
healing

Wake up! We came into this world with an erotic body, but learned early in life that everything that inhabits it, is wrong. Our sexuality was repressed at home, school, church, supermarket, even at the movies... We grow up with a distorted idea of ​​what sexuality is. We feel dirty and wrong... We begin to experience sexuality in the shadow and consequently all the toxicity that surrounds it. In this retreat we will breathe, pulsate and claim our erotic energy back into our lives. We will learn how to use and channel this supernatural force to create the world we dream of.
 

communication &
relationships

Love! We didn't come here to be alone, we need each other to grow. Relationships are the most powerful tool we have to evolve and, therefore, they are also the most challenging one. Instead of getting stuck in toxic ways of connecting, we need to learn the art of relating through love. In this retreat we will practice how to incorporate responsible communication, radical honesty and self-love in connection with others.

Sarah

Thank you so much for this retreat, which was inspiring and enlightening. It supports me in grounding and expressing how I feel (boundaries, desires, etc.). A perfect mix of light and depth. I went through huge shifts during the retreat and I am integrating several “tools-experiments” you shared with us in my daily life.

Corpo erótico is a life changing experience! Puja knows how to create a safe container in which I was able to dive deeper and show myself in an authentic way, connect to myself and with the others who became quickly beloved ones. So enriching and empowering! Thank you so much Puja and Filipe!!!

Noni

I went there suffering a lot inside, And I came back feeling in peace. I still feel the pain, the sadness but it doesn't hurt me in the same way. I found there a new pair of lenses that help me see everything from another perspective, a better one, that's for sure. I truly appreciate Mariana and Filipe work. They are two beautiful souls 😌
