Feeling good....

Hi all friends and students of Tantra,

I am feeling good the way things are going now.
The countdown to the first Durga Tantra School this year has begun.

I've just completed a flyer for the "For Yourself" - Sensual Healing Retreat For Women which is taking place in the Northern Drakensberg from 19th - 22nd March.

Theflyer for the Tantric Fire Couple's Rereat will be ready soon, however the info is already on the website. Two dates for this one: Stanford, Western Cape  16th - 18th April and Northern Drakensberg 30th April - 2nd May

The Come Together Singles Retreat date, taking place in May in the Noethern Drakesnberg, will be finalised before the end of this month, when I will also put the information onto the website.

There has been a lot of interest already and I am feeling really excited about these retreats and looking forward to facilitating them with my co-facilitators.

And if any of you saw the interview in the Let's Chat With Mel last night on M-Net Series channel, I hope you'll agree, that it was all in all a really good show. I enjoyed watching it and felt that the guests and their themes built up nicely, one after the other and I particularly enjoyed Sharon from Lola Montez, who gave a lovely rundown of the history of the dildo, which goes back a long, long way. Amazing!

I liked what they had edited together out of the interview with me and felt they got all the main aspects of what I was saying editeted together beautifully.

Oh, and I loved Ian and Kantha. Weren't they wonderful? The TV crew flew down to my house in Pennington for a day to film the interview with them and also snippets of some of the work. Anyone wanting to catch the interest of a partner in the Tantric Fire Couple's Retreats taking place in Stanford, Western Cape the in Northern Drakensberg, this would be an ideal way to watch the show together. They talk about their experiences on one of the Tantric Fire Couple's Retreats last year and about how this transformed their marriage. They are such a lovely couple and am so grateful to them, their willingness to share so openly on public TV. There is also footage shown of snippets of some of the work we do which I think you will enjoy.

If you missed the show, the repeat is this Sunday, 14th Feb at 10am on the M-Net Series channel (channel 110). It may be a good way of sharing your interest in Tantra with your partner. If you are considering booking a Tantric Fire Couple's Retreat, this is a great way to hear something about the work from a couple who have experienced it.

It is with Kantha, that I am facilitating the "For Yourself " Sensual Healing Retreat for Women  which is taking place in the Northern Drakensberg from 19 - 22 March.

So in all my excitement about how things are turning out, I think of those not so good times and want to remember the energy of this feeling good and take it with me there. Instead of simply feeling down with the energy sagging out of me, I want to feel excited about what Existence is showing me. I want to feel just as good...when I'm not good! And that is how it was recently for me. In a situation which could have become a crisis for me, (my intended partnership fell through). Although I did not feel good, I did feel excited about what the message was. I knew that that Existence always had "a good reason" for manifesting contrary to my planning, and so after the initial shock, I awaited the clarity that always comes when we allow ourselves to open up to it.

It came. It came through alright -  all the good stuff that I wrote about above.
And it feels very good!

I hope to see some of you on one of the retreats!

My warm greetings to you all
Leandra

News - weekend retreats in March and April

2nd February 2010


Hi everyone, this is a short message to let you all know that I am busy re-organising plans for further Tantra Sacred Massage visits as well as a series of weekend retreats. The first retreat will be a For Yourself Sensual Healing retreat for women from 19th - 22nd March which is a long weekend. It will be three nights and held at a beautiful venue in the Nothern Drakensberg. We will be working with interdisciplinary art therapy methods as well as tantric rituals and exercises. The next will be two Tantric Fire Couple's Retreats in April, one in the Overberg area of the Western Cape and the other also in the Northern Drakensberg. I have wonderful co-facilitators for these retreats. As soon as I have everything sorted out, I will be positing the details on the School of Durga Tantra website as well as here. If you'd like to be put on the mailing list for details of these retreats, please email me.

Warm greetings
Leandra
