To Love and Be Loved

The basic need of the human heart is to love and be loved. Love is as natural in us, as the air we breathe and the ground we walk upon. It is here to be lived and shared. Yet often within ourselves and in our relationships, difficulties and blockages arise and we are challenged. Not all what we have inherited in childhood and the conditioning from society does necessarily lead to fulfillment or to loving relationships. The calling “to love and be loved” invites us to engage in learning skillful means and being willing to open and awaken. On the way you may find the treasure you have longed for all of your life, a greater connectedness with others and joy in sharing what is most important—love.

This retreat is an invitation for couples and singles to:

Connect to Love alive within you

Deepen your availability to fully receive

Grow in your capacity to authentically give

Communicate with ease and joy

Experience greater wellbeing in your relationships and life

Benefit all by living your gift

Meditation, direct experience, practical skills, sharing and teaching support us at this retreat to be at home and intimate within love’s nature. Each person is respected in his or her own organic growth throughout our time together. Couples are welcomed to practice together during the retreat to deepen their intimacy and connection. Singles are invited to choose new friends to connect with.

Below are the in-depth topics that are included (depending on the length of the training):
