At the heart of our being is our love, seeking to express itself.
All Western Tantra seeks to bring heart-consciousness into sexual loving. No technique alone can teach this. Yet the love has always been there in you; what stops it flowing is mistrust and fear. The whole of BODY, HEART & SOUL is a journey into the renewal of trust in your being. This trust gradually opens your heart and as this happens, sexual intimacy becomes sexual loving. But we have all learned defensive strategies that unconsciously sabotage both loving and being loved.

In Part 4 you are guided into intimate love-meditations in which you cannot help seeing over and over again the moments and situations in which you get in the way of love and break its flow. Each time, you have the opportunity to see what happens if you consciously choose then for the love instead of the sabotage. In the process you discover that you can choose to be in love.

This is the meditation! As you surrender to it, your love begins to flow not only towards the one you are with, but also inwards and upwards. It opens deeper and deeper realms of your being until you open the door that takes you beyond your person, connecting with the universal love that pervades all existence. Now the path of love becomes a path of spiritual awakening. Love flows between you and your beloved and between you and the infinite. This is the essence of Tantra.

• You are guided on journeys that day after day encourage you to let go of the ways in which you resist or undermine the experience of being loved
• You learn what it means to let go into love, and to let go of your personality as you surrender to your heart
• The BODY, HEART & SOUL integration ceremony towards the end of the 7 days invites the integration of your sexual body, your feeling heart and your spiritual awareness. It celebrates your journey as a man or woman living your life fully, body, heart and soul!
