You begin to experience more freedom.<br><br>\n\nAnd intimacy is exactly that: feeling yourself and showing yourself to the other person.<br>\nCombined with a lot of touch and body language.<br>\nTalking and sharing how you feel is nice, but the language of the body and of touch makes it complete.<br>\nHow does your body feel, where is your breath? Are you connected to your own sexuality, truly connected to your own body?<br>\nFrom there, you can connect with the other person.<br>\nHow do you want to be touched, what are your desires, your boundaries? What are your partner\u2019s desires and boundaries?<br>\nHow can you give and receive exactly the way it feels good.<br><br>\n\nI love to pay a lot of attention to this in my retreats and sessions. <br>\nOn my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalbliss.nl\/english\/sessions\/\">sessions<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalbliss.nl\/english\/events\/\">events<\/a> page, you can see the possibilities to experience this yourself.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-54f78ba elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"54f78ba\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1eeda41\" data-id=\"1eeda41\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c4e299c elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"c4e299c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"85\" height=\"27\" src=\"https:\/\/www.naturalbliss.nl\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/handtekening.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-1137\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A beautiful aspect of the work I do is coming together in groups.
