THE SPRING 2025 SACRED INTIMACY INTENSIVE

What are the "Sacred Intimacy Intensive" retreats about?

These retreats are designed for people in couples relationships and singles who want to attract a committed and passionate relationship. We teach tantric and yogic (and other) practices to deepen your capacity to experience and inspire intimacy. Then we follow up so that you continue to learn in the weeks and months after.

So many of us enter into intimate romantic and marriage relationships with open hearts and good will —it's a beautiful thing! But most of us discover that deep intimacy and marriage ask more from us than we are prepared or know how to give. Our families and our communities rarely know how to guide through the often-dark places we find ourselves.

In this weekend retreat Sarah Bella Anderson and Rev. Hans Peter Meyer will teach you practices for intimacy and trust-building and rebuilding. Tools that they've seen help so many other couples "find the light" in their relationships. Tools that will rekindle the flames of trust, intimacy, and passion. Sarah and Hans will enhance your capacity for connection, for intimacy, and for communication between yourself and the one you love.

A note on terminology

This event is open to any couple, however you identify.

We use the words "masculine" and "feminine" to refer to yogic notions of energetic polarity, not to be confused with "men" and "women." All of us have a masculine/feminine polarity at play in our energetic bodies. Some of us are "masculine-identified." Others "feminine-identified." Some are more neutral than others. These are not static idenfitications. In fact, for most of us, there is a degree of fluidity. For the purposes of our work, knowing how to polarize into your body's "preferred" energetic state is fundamental. Knowing how to polarize is one of the powerful ways of becoming trustworthy (if you are masculine-identified), becoming the nourishment your body and your relationship needs (if you are feminine-identified).

What to expect

• Up to 20 hours of practice.
• Solo work
• Masculine-only work
• Feminine-only work
• Yogic couples work
• Tantric couples work
• Sacred marriage work
• Movement, structured and unstructured
• Stillness
• Dinner date.

Play —whether it’s in dance, in a dinner date, or other forms— offers an opportunity to ignite the spark of intimacy and expression. The work Sarah and Hans do is very important to them. But they bring a playfulness to their seriousness, and trust that through the "work of play" of this retreat you will make a living thing happen between yourself and your chosen one.

Safety

Consent, but so much more than consent, is required for the individuals in a couple to know and experience each other. This event offers a safe and supportive environment for you to explore your relationships on a deeper level, fostering a stronger and more meaningful connection, a more profound exoerience of intimacy.

To prepare

Plan your trip! Please check Airbnb for listings in the Golden area. This is a popuar ski and mountain sports area and it is wise to book accomodations early.

Once you register we will send you a short list of items to bring, eg. comfortable clothing, water bottle, etc.
