Ecotantra in the City: a Conscious Connections Event

ECOTANTRA IN THE CITY: a Valentines Conscious Connections Event Open to new possibilities in intimacy and authentic relating; free yourself to live fully as man or woman Welcome to our first ECOTANTRA IN THE CITY, a conscious connection event for our times! During this workshop, you will be invited to first tune into yourself, your body and sensations and then meet others in a non-traditional and heart-centered way. Please note: There will be no nudity! We focus on the connection with the felt sense in our own bodies and with the resonance in our hearts. What is Tantra? For us, Tantra is the total experience of life, multi-dimensional human life! Of course, sex and sexuality are a part of life, we wouldn't be here without it. But it is not the main focus of our work. The focus of Ecotantra is deepening our connection to the Heart! During this workshop, you will be invited to slow down and bring your awareness back into the present, back to your body and felt sense and to simple, yet, precious moments. Creating a safe and respectful space, this event uses simple exercises aimed at strengthening our ability to connect to one another and to become more comfortable with honesty and vulnerability. What will happen? This Ecotantra in the City event invites you to learn to feel and honour your own boundaries so that you can meet others in a deeper trust and openness. You'll be invited to explore your unique expression of being a man or woman, including your natural desires, excitement, fears, innocence, playfulness, sensuality and sexuality – all that it means to be fully alive as a man or woman. Throughout the workshop, there is a focus on: - developing our sensitivity to ourselves and what we are experiencing - allowing ourselves to be, and to be seen - developing love and acceptance for ourselves - becoming aware of the ways we shut down About your facilitator: Seth Newman As the founder of the URUBU School of Transformational Arts, he integrates the roots of Humanistic therapies, Bioenergetics & Body Psychotherapy, Transpersonal Psychology and Tantra in creative and life-transforming workshops, retreats and trainings.

I woke up the next day feeling so present and full of love for every moment and for every person I met! Amazing. Thank you, Seth, for creating all these different ways for self-exploration and fun and healing! Big hugs to all the lovely people who were there!” Alexandra “At the end of the group, I feel a greater sense of my own identity. I feel accepted. During the course, I have taken risks with emotional connections. I found people exceptionally loving and supportive and tolerant. It gave me great strength and confidence.” E “I want to thank you all for being part of my journey. I’ve really enjoyed sharing my time and space with you and feeling that connection – I can still feel it. I think I’ll always remember “meeting” people in such an intimate way, trusting and loving and sharing.” J “Thank you, Seth, for your facilitation of a very grounding and loving EcoTantra group. I have done quite a few tantric events, but Seth’s was different and special for me. We grew in trust and friendship, together. When I think back over the highlights, it was the music and dancing, the open circles and all the sharing closeness and humour. I grew to love all of you. The regularity and certainty that we would meet was comforting and helped to create the tenderness and depth of spirit. It was fun and safe. It was a soft and gentle process and it was perfect. I felt safe.” A
