"We were fairly new to Tantra when we attended Sensual Souls with Tara. We had apprehension about what to expect, but Tara was very thorough about preparations and what we would cover, always insuring we get to decide what feels best for us. Her warm heart, friendly smile and energy of integrity opened us up immediately to everything she had to teach us. The highlight of our retreat was the most memorable guided breathwork session whey my partner and I circulated our sexual energy, resulting in one of ht most blissful experiences of connection to divinity, oneness and pure love. It was magical and gave us a taste of what is possible. We have continued on that path and continue to learn from Tara through her various on-line offerings as well" - Melissa & Emmanuel/ Sensual Souls 2019

COMMON QUESTIONS
How many people will attend?
Approximately 5-7 couples
How many times has Earth Tantra used space at Paya Bay?
This will be our 3rd time sharing space at Paya Bay. Paya Bay is away from the hussle and bussle of the "party" side of the island. We appreciate the low-key vibes and hospitality of the locals on this side of the island.
Is this retreat clothed?
This retreat offers multiple clothing optional times & locations. Naturism is part of this resort's culture. There are 2 night/ dark ceremonies where clothing is optional, as well as 2 optional day sessions. Sarongs or light clothing are suggested to wear during the day due to the heat and humidity. Some beaches are also clothing optional. Wearing light clothing is expected around the buildings and other locations. Paya Bay will go over clothing optional locations at check in. Some coupes choose to try clothing optional at invited times and specific locations, where others stay clothed the entire time. The choice is up to you.
What if I'm a little uncomfortable?
Each practice and session is always presented with options to adapt to each person's comfort level. Comfort is a priority and we grow upon each practice step by step to ensure an introduction for deepening connection with your partner.
What can I bring?
Comfortable warm and hot weather clothing, white ceremonial clothing, Red or Black Ceremonial clothing, sarong, swim suit AND one meaningful item (quote or poem) to share on our alter - you will receive the item back. A more detailed list will be e-mailed out 1 month or 2 before the retreat.
Why are your retreats small?
Over the years Earth Tantra has found a smaller more intimate group allows people to ground and relax better in the space co-created. We feel this supports an exceptional healing cocoon. A larger group can also be intimidating for some people, especially since many people attending our events are empaths, ADHD/ spectrum or are focusing on deep healing. It is important for Earth Tantra to support the group & couples as much possible, instead of only the group as a whole. A small group paves the path for Tara, and any assistants, to be more fully present, intuitively guided and connected to the energy unfolding. Earth Tantra values quality and impact over quantity. This is one of the gifts we have to share that sets us apart from other guides and retreats.
What about transportation and airport transfers?
Yes, airport transfer is included. It's about a 50 minute transfer from the airport to PayaBay. We will talk more about travel tips on an optional group live zoom call approx. 1 month before the retreat. We suggest you fly into Roatan International Airport, since that is the airport where Paya Bay will offer transfer.
Is it possible to add a night?
Yes, we highly suggest this, especially the night before to land and ground after stressful travel. You may add 1 night before and/ or after when signing up to join us at check out. However space is very limited, so be sure to add on your night at check out. If the extra nights have sold out you won't be able to add before or after. There are many other resorts on the island and taxis for transfers to Paya Bay. Meals & airport transfer are still included with the extra nights. Extra night/s stay is non-refundable.
