About

AWAKEN THE SENSES: SENSUALLY DEVOTIONAL TANTRA RITUAL

Awaken the Senses Ritual is an invitation for arousal to arise within each sense of the body, opening a doorway into deeper presence, intimacy, and eros within our sensual body and with another.

Through guided ritual, somatic exploration, and elemental embodiment, we move in communion with earth, water, fire, air, and ether - awakening the way each element lives, breathes, and pulses through your senses.

We drop into the subtle energy that lies within connection, you may discover new textures of aliveness, where a breath, a gaze, the space between bodies becomes deeply nourishing and erotically charged - allowing your body to deliciously melt

Layer by layer, the senses awaken: opening into richer, more nuanced landscapes of pleasure.

We'll titrate gently into the space, allowing our sensitive nature to feel nourished and held at a pace that allows you to melt into the journey. This offering is open to those new to Tantra, Temple Rituals and Sacred Sexuality, as well as experienced practitioners who wish to deepen into the living rhythms of their eros.

A ritualised blossoming of your eros.

Awaken the Senses is a held as a trauma-informed, consent-based, and grounded in deep respect for the nervous system held in ritual space.

This is a fully facilitated ritual space - all practices will be guided - there will not be a “Free space” like in a Temple space. Longer practices invite your full creativity, magic & exploration within a guided, held & structured container.

The Gables, Roman Way, Glastonbury

"This was my first full Temple, and my first full Temple weekend, and my heart feels like it has been broken open in the best way possible. The event Anya created was so special, from the amazing harp music, the guidance, the gentleness, the support from Anya and her team, altogether it created such an incredible atmosphere, that I could slowly feel into, to grow into, to be myself within. Don’t get me wrong, it was personally challenging, but it being over a whole weekend meant I could sit and be supported with anything that came up, to break free from being in my head, to finally being more in my body. So special and I am full of gratitude that such a beautiful space was created for us by Anya.” David

"This was my second temple with Anya, and it surpassed expectation. Beautifully and safely created, a space was built that allowed emotions to be expressed, and joy to unfold as we journeyed together. I cannot speak highly enough of the way Anya and her team craft an event of such profound depth. I could be me, showing vulnerability and self in a way that I knew would be cherished and held. Thank you to Anya, her team and the beautiful people who travelled together at this temple - if you are reading this wondering if temple is for you - say yes to yourself, it is a place of beauty and revelation." - Chris

Practices are led in a way to encourage non-heteronormative pairing (some exercises are also in 3's or 4's) so people can mix for platonic or intimate connections as suits their gender and sexual orientation. This also creates opportunity for the rich learning in exercises from your brother or sister, not just seeking those you're attracted to.

This is a trauma informed space, facilitators and spaceholders assisting are available to support your needs during exercises and free space. We encourage self-responsibility to take care of yourself which is part of the learning of the space - that includes seeking support when support or sitting out of exercises when needed.
