Event Descriptions

EVENING SESSION

Gathering and Opening

Anastas Harris & Steven Vogue

We will gather together between 4:45 and 5:00 p.m. We will officially open at 5:00 p.m. and Anastas & Steven will do a ceremony to invite the enlightened spiritual energies to bring forth their gifts of consciousness into our lives and into this gathering - and to support Anastas and all of us in physical and spiritual healing and the manifestation of properity.

"Sharing The Deep Truth of Our Life" Dyadic Encounters

Anastas Harris and Steven Vogue

This event is designed to enable you to meet about 15 people in a brief but meaningful and revealing encounter over the period of about an hour.   You will establish or deepen connections that will enrich your experience for the day. You also learn more about how to articulate the depth of your being so that you can go deeper in your relationships with people.

LAUGHTER YOGA
Rachila

Rachila, Laughter Yoga leader, will attune as for the day, uplifting our spirits and boosting our immune systems with joyous, health inducing, biochemical changing  Laughter Yoga!

 
Laughter is a positive and powerful emotion that has all the ingredients required for individuals
to change themselves and to change the world in a peaceful and positive way.
It directly impacts one's electro-magnetic field and creates a positive aura around that person.
When a group of individuals laugh together, they create a collective community aura  becoming friends!
  
Rachila will be leading us through a series of easy stretching,conscious breathing and laughing exercises that all may enjoy with childlike playfulness! We may be including such things as telling an imaginary joke in gibberish, opening a phantom “milkshake of happiness,” and scurrying around the beach while flapping and
squealing like a seagull" while making eye contact and connecting with others.
 
Osho said: "I declare laughter to be the highest religious quality. And if we can decide that every year, for one hour, at a certain date, at a certain time, the whole world will laugh (together), it will help to dispel darkness, violence and stupidities - because laughter is a unique human characteristic... It can relax you, it can make you feel light, it can make your world a beautiful experience. It can change everything in your life.
Laughter can make life worth living, something to be grateful for."

“Most people think they have to feel good first in order to laugh. But you can start from nothing, you can even start feeling unhappy and just laugh as a form of exercise, and happy feelings follow. ....
If you’re laughing with a group of other people, fake laughter very quickly becomes real,” 
Jeffrey Briar, Laughter Yoga teacher and one of Rachila's mentors.

VEGETARIAN POT-LUCK

FOR PARTICIPANTS OF BOTH THE AFTERNOON & THE EVENING SESSIONS

The vegetarian pot-luck will be the closing experience for people who are only attending the afternoon and the opening experience for those only attending the evening session. For those fortunate enough to be attending both parts, it will be a yummy opening into the even more luscious, sacred, sensual delights of a blissful evening.

Please bring a dish to delight our palates.  Something really special.  Let it be both healthy and delicious and enough for at least 8 to 10 people.  Fresh, organic food and  vegetable and protein dishes are especially valued.
Please, do not bring fish, meat, or fowl or products cooked with stock made from these.
Be sure to bring your dish ready to serve. It should be on a serving plate, cut up and with a serving utensil.
If you come as a couple, one of you can bring a pot-luck dish and the other can bring a beverage - preferably either wine or fresh juice.

The Tantric, Romantic Date Night Puja

Anastas Harris and Steven Vogue

The Tantric, Romantic Date Night is a date with your beloved that by-passes the late night quickie in lieu of a long morning, afternoon, evening, or full day of love-making. It does not have to take place in the night – although for most people it will most of the time. Regardless of the time of day in which it takes place, it provides the ingredients for a deeper intimacyand therefore hotter sex. Its ingredients are so combined as to truly turn a couples energies from the numbing, stressful, busy doingness of life to a state of beingness.

In this puja we will take you through 6 phases of the Tantric Romantic Date Night - Relaxation, Presence, Emotional Intimacy, Sacred Heart Space, Sensuality, Sexuality

Freeform Communing and Snuggling

Opened by Anastas Harris and Steven Vogue

A horizontal rather than vertical experience.  This is unstructured time in which to explore creating your own intimate and cherishing connections. You have gone deep with each other.  You have laughed together, played together, shared your stories with each other, danced together, connected your chakras in creative and magical ways, entered into the Sacred Heart Space together, touched each other with Sacred Tantric Touch, moved your sacred life force energy both within yourself and between yourself and others.  Now is the time to gravitate towards those people who attract you and to share with them through heartfelt words, playfulness, touch, eye-gazing, cuddling, snuggling,  or massage.

During the extended time allowed for this experience you can get to experience a variety of people.  We suggest that you make each experience one that is authentic, deeply satisfying and pleasurable. This is not a time for sexual exploration. Ground rules will be given to ensure that this is a safe and honoring experience for all.

Closing Circle

PRESENTERS

STEVEN AND ANASTAS

We have been Tantra teachers for 14 years and have had a Tantric and polyamorous relationship for 24 years. We do private Tantric coaching with couples and individuals in our Northern San Diego, California home. Steven is also a part-time chiropractor, naturopath, and product developer, with specialized knowledge in rejuvenation and longevity, homeopathic approaches to correcting women's and men's hormonal imbalances, and health related sexual problems, and aphrodisiacs. Anastas is also counselor with a Ph.D. in Humanistic Psychology and a specialization in relationship therapy. We are both trained in massage and enjoy giving and receiving it as both a therapeutic and sensual pleasure. We live in a Tantric world of friends who are teachers, writers and workshop leaders in the field of Tantra.

Until recently we have presented workshops on Tantra, including the much loved Tantra Oil Experience, in the Tantric temple we called home. For the past two years, we have been living in an idyllic location in Harmony Grove, replete with a small woods and creek, hills, horses, spendid nature vistas and coyotes. We set about slowing down our lives and reconsidering our direction, before finding a new location that would be more suitable for doing workshops and more central to both our clients. However, last May, a year ago, everything changed and since then we have been focused on Anastas's healing from a particularly aggressive form of cancer. As with all spiritual people, this healing crisis became a spiritual journey, with all the attendent lessons of trust, surrender, non-attachment, and conscious creation, finding their place in the healing transformation. During that time, Anastas, sometimes together with Steven, continued to work as a private Tantric coach on a much curtailed level.and plans for our other Tantric activities, workshops and events came to a close. Anastas is now feeling and looking well but is still faced with profound health challenges, which she discovered as a result of an amazing test that revealed certain mechanisms in her body as malfuncioning. She is feeling very blessed that she has learned about them in time to change them before she began to experience the damage they are doing to her and perhaps falling into catastrophic illness again. She invites anyone who wishes to find out about these tests to contact her or Steven.

At present we are looking for a new residence in coastal North County in which to live and begin doing workshops again. Anastas is currently writing the book "ReRomancing Your Relationship: Creating Emotional Intimacy and Sexual Passion in an Imperfect but Highly Valued Relationship." Anastas has published a CD, call "Radiance: A Tantric Meditation for Happiness and Serenity."

RACHILA


Rachila has been a student of the Tantric spiritual path for many years and has been a Tantra teacher for several years. She lives a life balanced between responsibility and freedom to follow her Tantric flow. She is a nurse and a priestess. She has become a wonderful practitioner and teacher of laughter yoga and brings health and happiness to herself and others through this practice.

If peace is to be achieved among nations, we must be able to accomplish this here."
