Tantra · Shibari · Psychology
There is a place where Eros meets Psyche.
Where darkness is not feared, but revered.
Where light is not bypassed, but embodied.
A place where descent becomes devotion and ascension becomes prayer.
This retreat is a living initiation into the polarities of human wholeness.
Shadow and light.
Unconscious and conscious.
Body and soul.
Over two immersive days, we enter a ritual field woven from Tantra, Shibari, and psychology, exploring Eros not as performance or peak experience, but as a devotional path back to Self.
This is not about technique alone.
This is a temple of embodiment.
The Underworld Temple
We begin by going down.
Into the body.
Into the unconscious.
Into the places where Eros and Psyche have always been inseparable.
The first day is devoted to the dark polarity, the divinity in our flesh and embodied matter, our primal nature and sexuality. The hidden, instinctual layers and shadows of the psyche.
Through somatic ritual, conscious Shibari, tantric practices, and psychological inquiry, we create a playground where the body itself becomes a site of prayer.
At night, we will enter a reverent space and dive into the mysteries of the underworld temple.
Where we let our bodies and psychies meet in our most raw and authentic way.
Here, we explore
• devotional prayer to the mysteries through the body
• shadow work as a gateway to aliveness
• how Eros lives in the nervous system and the unconscious
• how desire, fear, power, and surrender shape our inner world
We remember that we need both Eros and Psyche to feel whole.
Nothing is rejected. Nothing is rushed.
We listen to what has been waiting to be felt.
From Unconscious to Conscious
From the depths, we rise.
The second day is devoted to light, integration, and rebirth, bringing what was revealed in the dark into conscious embodiment and lived presence.
We go on an inquiry about what our soul purpose is.
This day is designed to help you find clarity and direction for your life.
Through ecstatic dance, celebration, movement, ritual, and devotional practices, we allow life force to reorganize naturally.
Drawing on IFS and transpersonal perspectives, we invite all parts of the personality to gather around the embodied Self, rooted not only in psychology, but in soul, heart, and presence.
This day is about
• moving from unconscious patterns into conscious choice
• rebirth through embodiment and celebration
• clarifying soul purpose beyond fragmentation
• devotion as a lived and embodied state
We close in prayer, not to transcend the human, but to inhabit it fully.
Tantraopens pathways of life force, devotion, and presence.
Shibaribecomes a somatic ritual language of containment, trust, and polarity.
Psychologyoffers maps for integration and brings light to your shadows.
Together, they create a field where
• shadow becomes conscious
• the body becomes a prayer
• devotion becomes lived experience
• Eros becomes a bridge between psyche and soul
This is about
• feeling rather than forcing
• listening rather than achieving
• including all parts without bypass
• staying embodied in both darkness and light
We move slowly.
We move consciously.
We move with reverence.
You will be supported to meet your edges with compassion, clarity, and nervous system awareness.
This retreat is for you if
• you feel called to explore the meeting point of spirituality and psychology
• you want to integrate shadow and light in an embodied way
• you are curious about Tantra or Shibari beyond technique
• you long to live from embodied soul rather than fragmentation
• you are ready for a grounded initiation
You do not need to be an expert.
You only need a body, a breath, and a willingness to meet yourself.
Those with prior experience in Tantra, Shibari, or inner work will find rich depth to go further.
This is a remembrance.
A descent into mystery.
An ascent into embodied soul.
Welcome toEros, Descension & Ascension.

Unconscious and conscious.
Body and soul.
Over two immersive days, we enter a ritual field woven from Tantra, Shibari, and psychology, exploring Eros not as performance or peak experience, but as a devotional path back to Self.
This is not about technique alone.
This is a temple of embodiment.
The Underworld Temple
We begin by going down.
Into the body.
Into the unconscious.
Into the places where Eros and Psyche have always been inseparable.
The first day is devoted to the dark polarity, the divinity in our flesh and embodied matter, our primal nature and sexuality. The hidden, instinctual layers and shadows of the psyche.
Through somatic ritual, conscious Shibari, tantric practices, and psychological inquiry, we create a playground where the body itself becomes a site of prayer.
At night, we will enter a reverent space and dive into the mysteries of the underworld temple.
Where we let our bodies and psychies meet in our most raw and authentic way.
Here, we explore
• devotional prayer to the mysteries through the body
• shadow work as a gateway to aliveness
• how Eros lives in the nervous system and the unconscious
• how desire, fear, power, and surrender shape our inner world
We remember that we need both Eros and Psyche to feel whole.
Nothing is rejected. Nothing is rushed.
We listen to what has been waiting to be felt.
From Unconscious to Conscious
From the depths, we rise.
The second day is devoted to light, integration, and rebirth, bringing what was revealed in the dark into conscious embodiment and lived presence.
We go on an inquiry about what our soul purpose is.
This day is designed to help you find clarity and direction for your life.
Through ecstatic dance, celebration, movement, ritual, and devotional practices, we allow life force to reorganize naturally.
Drawing on IFS and transpersonal perspectives, we invite all parts of the personality to gather around the embodied Self, rooted not only in psychology, but in soul, heart, and presence.
This day is about
• moving from unconscious patterns into conscious choice
• rebirth through embodiment and celebration
• clarifying soul purpose beyond fragmentation
• devotion as a lived and embodied state
We close in prayer, not to transcend the human, but to inhabit it fully.
Tantraopens pathways of life force, devotion, and presence.
Shibaribecomes a somatic ritual language of containment, trust, and polarity.
Psychologyoffers maps for integration and brings light to your shadows.
Together, they create a field where
• shadow becomes conscious
• the body becomes a prayer
• devotion becomes lived experience
• Eros becomes a bridge between psyche and soul
This is about
• feeling rather than forcing
• listening rather than achieving
• including all parts without bypass
• staying embodied in both darkness and light
We move slowly.
We move consciously.
We move with reverence.
You will be supported to meet your edges with compassion, clarity, and nervous system awareness.
This retreat is for you if
• you feel called to explore the meeting point of spirituality and psychology
• you want to integrate shadow and light in an embodied way
• you are curious about Tantra or Shibari beyond technique
• you long to live from embodied soul rather than fragmentation
• you are ready for a grounded initiation
You do not need to be an expert.
You only need a body, a breath, and a willingness to meet yourself.
Those with prior experience in Tantra, Shibari, or inner work will find rich depth to go further.
This is a remembrance.
A descent into mystery.
An ascent into embodied soul.
