I have done a lot of this work. And I still get triggered.
I avoid conversations I know I need to have. I feel the moment when my body says no
and another part of me wants to say yes. I can get scared when there is something to lose.
Because knowing doesn’t make me perfect at being human. I have to practise.
And that’s what these days are about.
YOU PROBABLY ALREADY KNOW.
You know your patterns. You realise when you’re abandoning yourself. You feel when fear is making the decision. You notice the conversations you keep avoiding.
And still… someone you love looks at you in a certain way and your heart starts racing.
Your body tightens. And suddenly, knowing is not enough.
I’m not here to give you more information. I create a place where we can practise.
With breath, movement, boundaries, conscious communication, desire, relationship, the body, each other.
“My first Tantra experiences were either super spiritual and airy-fairy, or super sexual. I couldn’t quite find a balance. Tamara is good at this, she doesn’t shy away from sensuality or sexual energy, but doesn’t cultivate its energy. Ilumina for me is a safe space, the practices are well-guided, and the community that is built feels safe.
Tantra has increased my inner awareness. With that inner awareness I feel I became more present with myself and what’s going on around me.
If you feel a calling, go for it! Find that sweet spot, maybe you feel some resistance, and explore anyways, you might discover something new and beautiful.”
NOT TO BECOME BETTER.
I am not inviting you to come to Ibiza to become some more evolved version of yourself.
I’m interested in something more human.
Can you stay true to yourself when it gets uncomfortable?
Are you able to say no even when you’re afraid someone might leave?
How does it feel to desire without immediately doing something with it?
Can you be close without disappearing?
That, to me, is the work.
Not perfection. But capacity.
A DAY AT ILUMINA
You wake up on Ibiza.
Maybe you’re still carrying something from the night before.
A conversation.
A feeling.
A question you don’t have an answer to yet.
We begin with the body.
Breath. Movement. Silence. Whatever we need to arrive.
Then breakfast together.
Coffee in the sun. Bare feet. Conversations beginning to happen without being forced.
Later, we meet again.
This is where we practise.
Through the body, relationship, boundaries, desire, movement, conscious touch and whatever is alive in the room that day.
We rest.
swim.
lie somewhere under a tree.
talk to someone.
Or don’t.
In the afternoon, we go deeper.
And by dinner, something usually feels different.
Not because you’ve become a different person.
Maybe because you’ve spent an entire day actually being yourself.
Some evenings we gather again.
Sometimes to move.
Sometimes to explore.
Sometimes simply to meet what the day has opened.
And than we sleep.
And tomorrow?
We practise again.
