The Slow Sex is a practice and a space for self-development with sex positive inclusivity. In the practice we connect and work beyond gender, race, personal preference and ability/disability. Every practice is as unique as the people who join and therefore we mindfully craft it to cater to the needs of the specific group.
SlowSex is a 3-hour in-person group experience to explore (and potentially) heal the way we relate and create a new culture of relating that is authentic, vulnerable, and healthy. In essence, relating is a form of art, and to become a master, we need to dedicate time and energyโwe need to practice.
โจ ๐ช๐๐๐ง ๐๐๐ก ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ ๐๐ซ๐ฃ๐๐๐ง?
Within a clear structure, our trauma-informed facilitator Katjalisaโsupported by a trauma-informed space holderโguides you into deep intimacy with yourself first and foremost and whoever is front of you.
The aim is to empower you to become fully present so that you can get in touch with your truest desires, authentic boundaries, and ultimately powerful sexual energy. This way, our encounters, whether with a stranger, friend, or life-long partner can transform, and even heal.
This what youโll potentially experience at the Slow Sex Practice:
– Recognising & breaking (unhealthy) patterns
– Deconditioning you sexual behavior
– Learning how to access our โfull body yesโ and our โfull body noโ
– Setting and expressing boundaries compassionately (NVC) and honouring those of others
– Discovering what your desires are and expressing them
– Moving slowly without goal in mind
– Using communication as constructive tool
– Using your breath as guide and guardian
– Moving beyond the body to explore to energetic love, play and connection.
– Connecting from heart to heart
– Embracing vulnerability and rejection
– Freeing yourself (self-)judgement & shame
– Loads of fun, laughter, and of course, pleasure!
Even though the title contains the word sex, the focus is on SLOWโjust to calm your nerves :). Only by slowing the F down, you can access and listen to your most hidden sexual desires and most authentic boundaries to build a healthy and loving relationship with your bodyโyour sacred temple and portal to immense pleasure, joy & creativity.
โจ ๐ช๐๐๐ง’๐ฆ ๐๐๐ข๐ช ๐ข๐ ๐ง๐๐ ๐ฃ๐ฅ๐๐๐ง๐๐๐?
๐ช ARRIVAL: We start and finish the Slow Sex Practice all together. Please, arrive 15 minutes before to give yourself time to settle in and we invite you to stay until the end.
๐ซ EXERCISES: After the guided meditation and breathwork to connect with yourself, we move into partner exercises, both energetic and hands-on. Each exercise is merely an invitation; you decide how far to go and can say ‘no’ anytime. You can explore variations and remove layers of clothes, yet we always keep underwear on. Create the experience that feels right for you in each moment.
You are empowered to create the experience that is appropriate for yourself in that moment with that person.
Overall, weโll learn to sloooow down, fine-tune our (sexual) energy, and go on a deep journey into healing intimacy with yourself and others.
๐ฆ CLOSING: We collectively close the experience in a (sharing) circle.
๐ AFTER: Remember, the Slow Sex Practice is a transformative, eye-opening, and healing experience designed for those longing to create a different culture of deep intimacy and authentic relating. Everybody is encouraged to apply the provided tools beyond the context of sexuality, integrating them into everyday life. It can transform your relationship. It can transform your life.

Hello beautiful soul,
It is my absolute pleasure to get to share this Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki level 1 Training.
I received my first Reiki attunement back in 2018 and it really felt like such a beautiful opening to my spiritual path. Rei (universal life force energy) + Ki (breath) is a Japanese hands-on healing modality in which you learn how to channel universal healing energy to support your own body and to support others. It’s very gentle and soft while being powerful and potent. While initially not having the intention to become a Reiki master (with the ability to give trainings and attunements) at all at the start, life just happened and I now find myself giving these trainings with so much joy. I’m excited to see who will join this training.
Reiki Level 1
Reiki level 1 is intended for your own self-healing first and foremost. You will be able to give yourself energy healings as well as family, friends, pets and plants. This level is not intended to give healing to clients outside of your familial circle yet. If that is interesting for you, I recommend continuing with Reiki level 2 after a few months of integration. There are four levels in total within this Reiki lineage.
What you will receive during this Reiki Attunement:
– Preparation tips before the training, like adjusting your diet and energetic input a few days before our gathering
– Printed version of the level 1 Guide Book (old-school photocopies as this is very sacred information)
– 1 day physical gathering with cacao, tea, snacks and a delicious, nourishing vegan lunch in a small, cozy group of max 4 participants (5 including me)
– Shorter gathering about 5-6 weeks later on a date that suits everyone to see how everyone is doing, practice Reiki and answer any remaining questions
– Your level 1 Usui Shiki Ryoho certificate and a new healing modality to work with:)
– A Whatsapp/Telegram group to share experiences and ask questions
– A group of new like-minded soul friends
– All the support you need from me
– A portal to a new version of yourself ๐
After the attunement you will go through an automatic 21-day detox. The Reiki energy will upgrade your energy centres on a physical, emotional and spiritual level. For this it is recommended that you eat a clean diet, eliminate alcohol/smoking and other non-supporting input, perhaps even a digital detox. It can really support you to go out into nature as much as possible and give yourself Reiki healings every day. I definitely recommend taking the day or even a few days off after this training to give yourself time and space to integrate this deep energy work.
Do you feel the call?
Feel free to send me any questions to wisdom@kimruwa.com
Much love,
Kim Ruwa

What if you could express your wild self and be celebrated for it?
That’s what we are going to do in the Wild Woman Ecstatic dance gathering.
If you long to be connected to your Wild side and want to explore her ways..
๐๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฌ๐ฉ๐๐๐ ๐ฐ๐๐ฌ ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ, ๐ฆ๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐ซ.
Gift yourself a moment of self discovery.
Dance as raw, wild and free as you need. Move as the body calls you. Release. Shake out. Play and discover how your inner wildness 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 (Emotion Release Ritual) + 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 at 18:30 with a 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?
โข A notebook and pen for journaling and intention setting.
โข Socks (we will dance barefoot or in socks).
โข 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 in the Wild Woman vibes! It’s time you discover and step into your power.
The host – Linda is a Relationship Coach:
She started to dance when she was 6, now she’s 33 and feels like her dance journey has just began. Teaches social dancing (Salsa, Kizomba, Bachata) and African dances for 8+ years.
Linda leads communities like her Femininity Community โค๏ธโ๐ฅ
