Join Amsterdam’s most exciting psychedelic & microdosing networking party on June 3, where psychedelic enthusiasts, professionals, and like-minded explorers come together and network in a laid-back yet conscious party setting, gently guided by microdosing Truffle tea by Happy Tea at the bar, live panel discussion with leaders in the field, various artists for creative inspiration and much more!

🟣 Picture this:

Facilitated Panel discussion (topic around Psychedelics, Microdosing and our biggest desire as humanity – Deeper Connection) with experts bridging different perspectives (research, ceremony, therapy, education/non-profit) in the psychedelic and plant medicines field including Women on Psychedelics (WOOP), Microdose Together, Yama Deva, Odin Pepper, LFloris Wolswijk, Lya, Leila…. and more.

Enjoy guided networking that goes beyond just words, to help you meet others more consciously and expand your knowledge and view. We will have a free-flow networking space, with different possibilities and creative activities to explore and connect deeper within yourself and with each other. Plus an amazing Live DJ Set presenting DJ Samaya guiding us with ecstatic beats in this evening.

This is also a great opportunity to connect with the psychedelic community in the Netherlands, as the center hub globally, especially this week as people gather here for ICPR – one of the biggest conferences in the psychedelic field. As a part of the global movement, we aim at bringing in diverse perspectives and opening up critical conversations: researchers, psychologists, therapists, entrepreneurs, artists, medicine men/women and psychedelic-curious getting together to holistically ‘experience’ (not just ‘talking about it’) psychedelics and expand the community through authentic sharing and exchanging embodied insights.

We welcome diverse perspectives—from science, academia, and psychology to business, media, spiritual and indigenous traditions—to foster open dialogue and understanding.

As a Tantra and Shamanic Practitioner, Bodyworker and Psychedelic/Plant Medicines Guide, she works with powerful Life Force Energy and and the Heart as the essence and as the portal. She has supported many 1:1 clients as well to reconnect with their life force energy and hearts, and regain their true power through remembering who we truly are.

Lya Serrano – Intimacy Therapist I Founder at the Love Institute. “I grew up in a family of doctors and a psychotherapist, connected with the medicinal roots of Mexico and Spain. My own journey with my sexuality and a life-changing close to death experience in my youth led me to research everything around Purpose, pleasure, and creating a life I’m madly in love with.

I trained in classical tantra, sexual deconditioning, shadow work, and my journey continued with therapeutic tools like NLP, NARM, IFS, erotic intelligence, and tantra therapy. I’m passionate about translating profound ancestral wisdom into practical, direct to the point tools to dismantle shame and sabotage. I use pleasure, courage, and voice as my main tools – helping people reconnect with their body, speak their truth, and build a life that feels vulnerable, courageous, and authentic.

I host tantric year programs, dinners focused on deep connection, and diverse workshops focused on connection and purpose. Feel curious? https://www.instagram.com/lya.serrano/”

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗟𝗢𝗪 𝗦𝗘𝗫 𝗣𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗘 𝗜𝗡 𝗔𝗠𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗗𝗔𝗠
A new culture of intimacy, connection, and embodied presence.

What if your sexuality could be a gateway—not just to pleasure, but to healing, aliveness, and deep human connection?

The Slow Sex Practice is the foundational ritual of the Slow Sex Movement—a 3-hour in-person group experience guided by trauma-informed facilitators. Within a clear structure, you are gently invited into intimacy with yourself and others—whether a total stranger or a longtime partner. This is not about performance or peak moments. It’s about presence. It’s about awakening to what is truly alive in you.

Please take your time to read the full description below—to manage your expectations.

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜𝗦 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗘?
The Slow Sex Practice is a self-development ritual grounded in sex-positive, inclusive values. We connect and explore beyond gender, race, preference, and ability/disability. Every session is co-created by the people in the room and lovingly crafted to meet the group’s specific needs.

You’ll learn to listen deeply to your body’s wisdom, express boundaries with clarity and care, and explore hidden desires with reverence. Together, we discover how sexual energy—our most potent life force—can be channeled not just for pleasure, but for profound transformation.

This is not a one-time experience. It’s a new imprint for your nervous system. A new way of relating. A new way of being.

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗘𝗖𝗧
Our trauma-informed facilitator Elena, supported by a trained spaceholder, gently guides you into deeper intimacy—first with yourself, then with whoever is in front of you. Expect a mix of breath, movement, touch, presence, and communication, all framed in deep consent.

You are empowered to choose. Every exercise is an invitation. You can stay clothed or undress layer by layer (keeping underwear on, always). You decide what’s right for you in each moment.

You might experience:

Slowing down to feel what’s actually alive in you

Recognizing and unlearning unhealthy patterns

Discovering your ‘full body yes’ and ‘full body no’

Expressing clear boundaries (compassionate communication)

Meeting desire without pressure or expectation

Moving from genital-based to heart-and-energy-based intimacy

Feeling the power of breath and presence

Embracing vulnerability, rejection, and joy

Releasing shame and performance conditioning

Connecting soul-to-soul, heart-to-heart

… and yes—fun, laughter, and pleasure!

Even though the title contains the word sex, the emphasis is on slow. This is about tuning in, not turning on. Only by slowing the F down can we access what’s real: our deepest desires, our true limits, and our innate capacity for pleasure, joy, and creativity.

𝗙𝗟𝗢𝗪 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗘
ARRIVAL
We begin and end together. Please arrive 15 minutes early to land softly. Doors close at the start.

PRACTICE
We start with a grounding meditation and breathwork, then move into partner exercises—both energetic and hands-on. Clothing is optional to a degree, but underwear always stays on. There is no genital contact or penetration.

You’re invited to explore connection beyond preference or identity—beyond gender, roles, or performance. Each exercise honors your autonomy and choice.

CLOSING
We end in a collective circle to share, integrate, and return.

AFTERGLOW
Many come out of curiosity. Many return again and again. No two sessions are ever the same. Every encounter is a mirror. Every group, a new constellation. This practice can shift your relationships—and your life.

𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗠𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧
The Slow Sex Movement is more than a practice—it’s a lifestyle, an art form, and a form of activism that reconnects us to ourselves, each other, and the Earth. By embracing slowness, truth, and deep presence, we end separation and reclaim our erotic aliveness.

What do you want to transform or banish?
What are you ready to let go of?
How do you nourish yourself?

This workshop explores the power of an oft-neglected phase of the moon to support us in taking space and time to rest, restore, and let go. Using storytelling and science, we can deepen our relationship with the moon. Guided meditation helps identify things that have run their course and are asking to be released.

This is a queer-led, all-gender open coven experience focused on intentional rest, release, and re-enchantment. The Coven of the Waning Moon is inspired by both traditional Britiash witchcraft and modern magical practices; you do not have to be a witch or even have a specific belief system to attend and enjoy one of these workshops.

Different Monthly Themes

Each month a different theme is explored inspired by the season and corresponding archetypes. This theme is combined with the energy of the Waning Moon, a time of letting go and turning inwards, to create a guided meditation that takes you gently into your internal landscape as you rest.

This workshop is designed to be accessible but it is aimed at people who already have some experience of meditation or energy work.

All materials are provided and included in the price, plus snacks (vegan and gluten-free) and homemade chai!

This Advanced Slow Sex Special is a 5-hour in-person group journey into authentic connection, embodied intimacy, and the art of slowing all the way down.

We’ll gather in a held, trauma-informed space to explore intimacy — not just with another, but deeply with yourself.
Through guided meditation, breathwork, partner practices, and free-flow play, we’ll slow down, feel into the body, and discover what our deepest desires and boundaries truly are.

You’ll explore:
– The superpowers and shadows of your Erotic Blueprint®
– How your wiring influences your desires and your self-expression
– How to communicate what you want and honour what you need

Themes we’ll touch include:
– The fear of being “too much” or “too sensitive”
– The longing to feel safe, seen, and desired
– The courage to express your truth
– The invitation to rise in your erotic, sacred power

By understanding your blueprint, you begin to meet yourself more deeply — landing in your essence, authenticity, and delight.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁
With clear structure and gentle guidance from Anneke (supported by a trauma-informed space holder), you’ll be invited into deep, embodied practice.

You’ll learn to:
– Recognise and transform old patterns
– Access your “full-body YES” and “full-body NO”
– Express boundaries compassionately
– Connect from heart to heart
– Use communication and breath as tools of presence
– Explore energy and play beyond goal-oriented sexuality

Although the title says Slow Sex, the focus is truly on SLOW — listening, feeling, and being.

In deze sessie werken we met verbonden ademhaling, drukpunten, energetisch werk, klank en beweging om jouw levensenergie weer te laten stromen.

✅️Wat is Tantric Healing Breathwork
Tantric Healing Breathwork is een vorm van ademwerk waarbij je dieper in je lichaam zakt en opgeslagen spanning, emoties en blokkades los kunnen komen.
Ik combineer dit met drukpunten, bekken oefeningen en energetisch werk om het lichaam te helpen openen en doorstroming te creëren. Ik hoop zo vrouwen meer bewust te maken wat zij met hun ademhaling en bekken kunnen creëren.

Bij Tantric Healing Breathwork ligt de intentie op het omarmen en laten stromen van jouw levensenergie en seksuele energie op een veilige en gedragen manier.
Dit gaat niet over iets bereiken.
Dit gaat over voelen, loslaten en terugkomen in jezelf.
Veel vrouwen zijn de verbinding met hun lichaam en hun seksuele energie en sensualiteit deels kwijtgeraakt.
Hier creëren we een ruimte waarin je die energie op een veilige manier weer mag openen, onderzoeken en terugpakken.
Je leert dieper zakken in je lichaam
Spanning en blokkades loslaten
Jouw sensualiteit opnieuw voelen en ontdekken.

Werken met adem, klank en beweging
Jouw energie zelf laten stromen
Zonder afhankelijk te zijn van een ander.
Alles gebeurt op jouw tempo.
Je voert alles zelf uit, met kleding aan.

🫂We werken in een groep van maximaal 15 vrouwen, zodat er ruimte is voor aandacht en diepgang. (2 of 3 spaceholders aanwezig)

📍 Locatie: Kokopelli Amsterdam
🕒 Wanneer: Elke 2e woensdag van de maand 19:30

⚡️Dit is een uitnodiging om jouw kracht terug te pakken
Jouw lichaam weer te voelen
Jouw sensualiteit te herontdekken
Jouw levensenergie weer te laten stromen
Je bent welkom precies zoals je bent.

🙋🏻‍♀️Over mij – Sanne Croese
Ik werk al jaren met ademwerk, lichaamswerk en energetisch werk en begeleid vrouwen en koppels in het terugkomen in hun lichaam en kracht.
Mijn manier van werken is nuchter, afgestemd en diepgaand zonder zweverigheid.
Ik creëer een veilige en heldere setting waarin jij kunt voelen wat er in jou leeft en waarin alles welkom is.
Van zachtheid tot intensiteit en alles daar tussenin.

Naast deze sessies geef ik ook workshops en events op het gebied van tantra, kink en verbinding en heling.

Ik organiseer verdiepingsdagen voor bodyworkers en begeleid mensen in hun ontwikkeling en verdieping binnen dit werk.
Daarnaast geef ik massages, trancereizen en 1 op 1 sessies gericht op ademwerk, trauma en lichaamsbewustzijn.
Dit doe ik zowel individueel als in groepsvorm.

Alles wat ik doe staat in het teken van jou weer laten verbinden met jouw lichaam, jouw energie en jouw eigen waarheid.
Altijd met respect voor jouw grenzen en jouw tempo.

💥Meest gestelde vragen

Moet ik aangeraakt worden
Nee. Je voert alles zelf uit.
Ik werk alleen met drukpunten bij vrouwen die hier bewust voor kiezen.

Moet ik ervaring hebben
Nee. Deze sessie is toegankelijk voor zowel beginners als ervaren deelnemers.

Mag iedereen meedoen
Nee.
Heb je last van recente psychoses, hartklachten, epilepsie of andere gezondheidsklachten overleg dan eerst even voordat je deelneemt.

Ik vind het spannend om mijn seksuele energie uit te nodigen of te omarmen
Geen probleem. Juist dan ben je welkom.
Dit is vaak de eerste stap om deze energie weer van jou te maken.
Er is geen goed of fout alleen jouw eigen tempo en ervaring.

Ik ben bang voor triggers
Dat kan gebeuren. Geluiden of oefeningen kunnen iets in jou aanraken.
Wij zorgen voor een veilige setting en begeleiding.
Zie het als een uitnodiging en een mooie stap in jouw proces altijd binnen jouw eigen grenzen.

Come back to yourself – your body and experience the presence of being. Play through the elements of fire, air, earth and water.

Gift yourself a moment of self discovery and pure freedom to be who you are.

Dance as fire, air, earth and water be as free or still as you need. Move as the body calls you. Release. Shake out. Play and discover how your body wants to express.

Open your heart in cacao ceremony and fill up your cup with your authentic energy.

Treat yourself with an ecstatic dance for women only (or if you identify as one)! Join on your own or with girlfriends.

This dance journey is a blend between:
cacao ceremony + ecstatic dance + somatic practices + sharing circles like in women’s circles and connecting to each other + other offerings
(It’s much more than just Ecstatic Dancing)

No dance experience needed!

You can arrive from 18:15 to get ready
We start with a sharing – get to know each other circle.
At 18:30 we begin cacao ceremony for softening in the presence.
The journey will be 2 hours long – from surrendering to emotions followed by a blissful rise into freedom.. dancing uniquely as your body wishes in the moment.
Finishing up with a loving sharing circle that always brings deeper connection.
20:30 we close the journey, but there’s time to talk and catch up with each other.

We have female space holders, to make sure you feel safe and supported for the whole journey.

What you need to take with you?
• Socks (we will dance barefoot or in socks).
• Special outfit that allows you to move freely and feels amazing (you can change on the spot).

Come to dance and play in a beginner guided dance journey with Elements! It’s time to free yourself.

The hosts – Linda is a Relationship Coach:
She started to dance when she was 6, now she’s 34 and feels like her dance journey has just began. Teaches social dancing (Salsa, Kizomba, Bachata) and African dances for 9+ years. She is also our cosmic DJ. Linda leads communities like her Femininity Community ❤️‍🔥

Maartje has been holding cacao ceremonies since 2022 and has her foundation in energy- and bodywork, like reiki, massage, cupping, different somatic practices and more. From 8 years old she is classically schooled in playing the flute, solo and in orchestra. When her holistic path evolved, so did her instruments and understanding of music.

We are so looking forward to meet you (again), and to what this evening is going to bring. If you have any questions or remarks, please feel free to reach out to us.

Until then, much love,

Linda, Maartje and Iina

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗟𝗢𝗪 𝗦𝗘𝗫 𝗣𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗘 𝗜𝗡 𝗔𝗠𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗗𝗔𝗠
A new culture of intimacy, connection, and embodied presence.

What if your sexuality could be a gateway—not just to pleasure, but to healing, aliveness, and deep human connection?

The Slow Sex Practice is the foundational ritual of the Slow Sex Movement—a 3-hour in-person group experience guided by trauma-informed facilitators. Within a clear structure, you are gently invited into intimacy with yourself and others—whether a total stranger or a longtime partner. This is not about performance or peak moments. It’s about presence. It’s about awakening to what is truly alive in you.

Please take your time to read the full description below—to manage your expectations.

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜𝗦 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗘?
The Slow Sex Practice is a self-development ritual grounded in sex-positive, inclusive values. We connect and explore beyond gender, race, preference, and ability/disability. Every session is co-created by the people in the room and lovingly crafted to meet the group’s specific needs.

You’ll learn to listen deeply to your body’s wisdom, express boundaries with clarity and care, and explore hidden desires with reverence. Together, we discover how sexual energy—our most potent life force—can be channeled not just for pleasure, but for profound transformation.

This is not a one-time experience. It’s a new imprint for your nervous system. A new way of relating. A new way of being.

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗘𝗖𝗧
Our trauma-informed facilitators Emma & Ruth, supported by a trained spaceholder, gently guide you into deeper intimacy—first with yourself, then with whoever is in front of you. Expect a mix of breath, movement, touch, presence, and communication, all framed in deep consent.

You are empowered to choose. Every exercise is an invitation. You can stay clothed or undress layer by layer (keeping underwear on, always). You decide what’s right for you in each moment.

You might experience:

Slowing down to feel what’s actually alive in you

Recognizing and unlearning unhealthy patterns

Discovering your ‘full body yes’ and ‘full body no’

Expressing clear boundaries (compassionate communication)

Meeting desire without pressure or expectation

Moving from genital-based to heart-and-energy-based intimacy

Feeling the power of breath and presence

Embracing vulnerability, rejection, and joy

Releasing shame and performance conditioning

Connecting soul-to-soul, heart-to-heart

… and yes—fun, laughter, and pleasure!

Even though the title contains the word sex, the emphasis is on slow. This is about tuning in, not turning on. Only by slowing the F down can we access what’s real: our deepest desires, our true limits, and our innate capacity for pleasure, joy, and creativity.

𝗙𝗟𝗢𝗪 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗘
ARRIVAL
We begin and end together. Please arrive 15 minutes early to land softly. Doors close at the start.

PRACTICE
We start with a grounding meditation and breathwork, then move into partner exercises—both energetic and hands-on. Clothing is optional to a degree, but underwear always stays on. There is no genital contact or penetration.

You’re invited to explore connection beyond preference or identity—beyond gender, roles, or performance. Each exercise honors your autonomy and choice.

CLOSING
We end in a collective circle to share, integrate, and return.

AFTERGLOW
Many come out of curiosity. Many return again and again. No two sessions are ever the same. Every encounter is a mirror. Every group, a new constellation. This practice can shift your relationships—and your life.

𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗠𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧
The Slow Sex Movement is more than a practice—it’s a lifestyle, an art form, and a form of activism that reconnects us to ourselves, each other, and the Earth. By embracing slowness, truth, and deep presence, we end separation and reclaim our erotic aliveness.

In this intimate circle we explore the breath as a tool to tend to our mental, physical and emotional state of being. By consciously connecting to your breath you can learn to navigate your mental state with more ease, process stuck emotions and release tension in the body. Microdosing, like breathwork, can help bring awareness to what is present.
We combine breathwork with a (optional) microdose of our homegrown sacred stones to amplify the experience of both.

Note: No prior experience is required. Should you have any medical concerns or curious questions about participating, or you are interested in booking a 1:1 breathwork session, please contact us.

* CACAO CONSTELLATIONS *
A heart-opening ceremony of cacao & family constellation healing

“We, Kim Ruwa and Natacha Volpini, are so excited to invite you to the fifth edition of Cacao Constellations — a sacred ceremony where we combine the gentle, heart-opening medicine of ceremonial cacao with the deep healing of family constellations.”

Walk-in from 11:45 and we will start our ceremony officially at 12:00 🌞

Ceremonial Cacao is the beautiful, soft and powerful plant medicine of the heart guarded for centuries in Central and South America by ancient tribes. This medicine has been reemerging in the past 20+ years because the world is ready for her. She gently opens our hearts, stimulates our blood flow, brings happiness and bliss molecules into our being and enhances our connection with our body, Mother Earth and the Cosmos. Working with cacao can bring benefits on a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual level. Some people experience bodily sensations, emotional release, happiness, joy, shifts in mental thought patterns and sometimes visions. Every ceremony will be different for every person.

Family Constellation is a healing process that helps us see hidden patterns in our family, ancestors and life that may be affecting our journey. It brings to light things we often carry without knowing — like old wounds, roles, or family dynamics. With the support of the group, we gently explore and hold space across the 3rd, 4th, and 5th dimensions for what is ready to be seen, released, and healed.
This can bring more peace, clarity, and strength to your relationships and your personal path.
Whether you are constellating or simply witnessing and holding the field, you will receive exactly what your soul is ready for. Every constellation touches everyone in the circle — because at the deepest level, we are all connected.

Your hosts:

– Kim Ruwa a.k.a. @kimruwamedicinewoman is based in Amsterdam, passionate about ceremonial cacao, plant medicines and is a total fairy that works with aromatherapy, Reiki, dragon energy and more. She is always exploring new, fun and transformative ways of combining the heart-medicine cacao with other modalities. An honour to co-create this special ceremony with Natacha!

– Natacha Volpini: She is a Brazilian soul living in the Netherlands, walking a lifelong path of spiritual discovery. With over two decades of experience, she has devoted herself to exploring the unseen—drawing from Spiritism, oracle reading, and deep intuitive practice. Her journey has included specialization in family constellation therapy and, cacao ceremonies and Reiki healing. She holds space for transformation, connection, and awakening, gently guiding others toward their inner truth and light.

When: June 28th from 12:00 to 16:00
Where: Kokopelli, Warmoesstraat Amsterdam
What: A sacred afternoon of heart-opening and healing.
– We begin with a ceremonial cacao circle to connect, ground, and open the space.
– Then, we hold 2 or 3 family constellations in a safe, supportive group.
– You can join as a participant or simply witness — both roles are powerful and healing.
– There will be time for sharing, integration, and gentle closing together.

Would you like to constellate?
We are looking for 3 people who feel called to explore something important in their life through this process. If this speaks to you, please let us know.

We look forward to sharing this sacred space with you.
Come as you are, bring your curiosity, your truth, and an open heart.
Your presence is the medicine. 🤍

With love and gratitude,
Kim & Natacha
