| Evalena
Rose, M. A., enjoys offering MetaTherapy, couples work,
multi-dimensional healing and channeled readings to help people
heal emotionally and spiritually and has for 30 years.
She founded LoveJourney : the Healing Path of Tantra in 1997. Since that time, she has been sponsoring workshops and supporting a compassionate community practicing the highest erotic and romantic arts.
Bisexual and openhearted by nature, Evalena has made a study
of relationships, sexuality, and healthy intimacy that allows
all people to be fully who they are. She brings to this work
her degrees in psychology and decades of study in alternative
healing, shamanism, and Eastern spiritual paths. She entered
the world of Tantra in 1987 and realized its potential for
helping achieve a wholeness beyond what therapy can offer.
Evalena coaches women, men and couples in how to apply Tantra in
their lives and in developing communication that sustains
intimacy. Each learns to ask for what they want through effective
erotic communication. The explorations, especially the Sacred
Evenings for Lovers and longer intensives, may include Tantric
breath practices, body image, sensual massage, movement and
ritual. With warmth and humor, she creates safe and sacred
space for emotional and sexual healing that clears trauma
and abuse, opening the way for new levels of ecstasy.

Sharon Neal Williams is the kitchen support for our workshops, as well as Evalena's personal assistant during the week. An artist specializing in the art of scratchboard, her artwork graces our walls and she is also an illustrator with work on various wine labels. Originally partnering with Evalena in the creation of LoveJourney, Sharon is Evalena's land partner where she grows and tends vegetables in the back garden. Being a student of Zen Buddhism, Sharon enjoys living on the land in simplicity and peace and finds her practice a support in her work. After being an Assistant in the workshops for six years (demonstrating ways to bring these arts to intimacy and helping model how Tantra enhances real life), she finds this role of kitchen and personal support a perfect fit for her life now.

Guest Teachers and Assistants
The ancient peoples understood it takes a community of trained priests and priestesses to support the process of opening one's sexuality and learn the arts of sacred love-making. They peopled their temples with dakas and dakinis (sexual healers). We people our workshops with women and men who have studied Tantra for many years and give of their time for the beauty of assisting others to open. Many are trained in bodywork, therapy or healing and are able to deeply support you in dropping old wounds and held emotions. |
