(14 minutes reading time)
In a hugging meditation of just ten to twenty minutes we can allow ourselves to go very deep and open our hearts very wide to find emotional healing and balance. This often works much better than meditating alone.
Are you a holistic wellness therapist, energy worker or practitioner, perhaps already offering Reiki, massage, sound therapy or other services? Are you a meditation or yoga teacher, life coach or simply an empath who wants to bring more LOVE into the world?
You are welcome to stay with me in Tenerife for a few days or weeks, experience hugging meditations and learn how to offer them to others in a safe, conscious and loving way.

Questions & Answers
Background & Safety
We explore the inspiration for exploring the energetic and spiritual healing power of hugging meditations. We also address the importance of safety in hugging meditations, ensuring that the energy exchange remains heart-centred and free of unwanted sexual intent, while acknowledging natural energetic responses.
Yin & Yang Balance
Hugging meditations naturally balance yin and yang energies by allowing an intuitive exchange between partners, bringing both into inner harmony. Hugging someone with complementary energies can create a deeper transformation.
Holding Hands & Eye-Gazing
A meditation while holding hands, with or without eye contact, can offer powerful connections when a hugging meditation feels too intense. Holding hands connects the astral bodies and allows the energies to flow, while eye-gazing mirrors your own emotions.
Absorbing Energies & Healing Trinity
Rather than focusing on protecting our own energy field, embracing our unity can lead to powerful healing and inner strength, much like two gongs together create a deeper resonance than one alone.
Being Centred in the Heart
Rather than focusing on individual chakras, the heart chakra serves as a central key to connect and harmonise energies from both the lower and the upper chakras. By tuning into body sensations and intuitively placing hands on areas of discomfort while breathing through the heart centre, we can heal and balance energies naturally.
Hugging as a Service?
Hugging meditation is not like cuddling therapy – you don’t pay for a set service, but instead engage in a personal, honest, heart-centred connection that respects each soul’s comfort and healing journey. The facilitator decides intuitively what to offer – whether a hug, holding hands, or eye-gazing – and any money exchanged is a free choice based on what someone feels able and willing to give.
Explore the Art of Hugging Meditations in Tenerife
Reading about hugging meditations and practising them with friends can be a wonderful first step. It allows you to feel the warmth, connection, and relaxation that conscious hugging brings. You may experience emotional release, a sense of peace, or a deeper connection with those you hug.
But to truly experience the deeper healing, transformation, and higher vibrational states that hugging meditations can offer, an inner journey is needed.
This is not just about learning techniques; it is about becoming the spaceholder who can hold and share this deep, healing presence.
Entering such a state requires emotional healing, energetic purification, and inner balance and grounding.
It is a process of releasing fears, expanding our capacity to LOVE, and allowing divine energy to flow freely through us. In many ways, it is a journey of self-initiation – one that guides us step by step into deeper LOVE and higher frequencies.
This journey is unique for each soul
I offer a safe space and the opportunity to stay with me for this personal transformation on my finca in Tenerife, Canary Islands – not as a structured workshop, but as an intuitive journey that unfolds naturally, guided by the flow of our shared inner guidance.
For some, this journey may be a deeply transformative experience for an intensive three- or five- day immersion. For others, the process may unfold more gradually – perhaps over three weeks, with each day dedicated to a new step, allowing for gentle energetic and emotional shifts.
I am not the teacher. Just by being together we create a space where we can both learn and grow.
Depending on your background and direction of growth, these topics may be important:
- Making heart chakra breathing a constant practise in our life until it becomes natural to keep our presence always in the heart.
- Finding ways to gradually improve our food intake, freeing us from cravings along the way. Perhaps finding fasting as a way of strengthening our inner purity and opening up to the subtle astral tingling that we can feel in the presence of other souls.
- Step by step overcoming our own fears of touch and closeness, for example by connecting through our hands while meditating together, or while intuitively feeling the energies flowing.
- Finding our personal best ways to regularly release any fears, anxieties, anger and tensions, so that we can be as pure as possible during our hugging meditations.
- Building trust within, connecting with our inner guidance.
- Learning to clear our personal space and sphere before inviting someone for a hugging meditation.
- Guiding other souls to share their emotional challenges in a short summary without the need for a long problem talk.
- Empathically sensing possible underlying fears and needs that another soul is not openly sharing.
- Intuitively feeling what we can and want to offer to another soul.
- How to create a safe and respectful space where others feel free to set their own allowances and boundaries to receive any kind of closeness with full consent.
- Understanding the different types of hugs and their energetic and emotional effect on the other soul.
- Practicing how to enter a space of pure presence before a hugging meditation, allowing LOVE to flow effortlessly without expectation.
- Exploring the many ways to connect with another soul by sharing the astral sphere, holding hands with each other or on the chakras.
- Maintaining a stable, high-vibrational state, sacred stillness and deep presence, learning how to keep our energy field clear and strong, so we don’t absorb emotions or heaviness from others.
- Knowing how to handle arousal, emotional release or challenging situations.
- Understanding that other souls may be projecting their deepest fears and shadows onto us, as we are their white canvas. Learning how to work with these challenges and use them for our own personal growth and healing while we hold space with compassion, honouring their journey, and gently caring for their needs without losing ourselves in the process.
Allowing LOVE
Imagine a world where LOVE is written in capital letters.
A world where we give and share freely, where we help each other grow, where we forgive and heal, where we find balance together.
We can now build this world together, step by step. It starts with us. You, me and everyone else who feels the calling for a courageous change.
First of all, I am not a healer and I am no more special than you.
But hooray, I am different!
If you wish, you can use this differentness in energies and frequencies for your inner growth and heart opening.
When two different gongs play at the same time, the healing energies are generated by the overlapping patterns of the two gongs.
Over the past few years I have been working intuitively to find a deeper LOVE within myself than I ever thought possible. At the same time I continue to feel guided to purify my food intake, to work with traditional shamanic ceremonies and to spend a lot of time alone in personal retreats, facing my deepest emotions, fears and shadows.
As a result, there is a certain frequency that some souls can feel when they are with me. To tell you the truth, some souls cannot cope with it (see: Challenges of Spiritual Growth). Others are deeply moved, they feel good, comfortable and safe, and they naturally open up their hearts.
When we sit and meditate together, we can hold hands and you can allow yourself to feel whatever comes up. Is it your inner LOVE? How beautiful!
Are other emotions arising, is something triggering you? This can also be beautiful, as you can see parts of yourself that may have been hidden before.
It is a little bit like those eye-gaze meditations, whatever we see in the other soul’s eyes, it is never their emotions, only our own. So, we might as well close our eyes and just sit together. Just feel, let go and accept whatever comes.
Although this is a deeply personal process of connection and togetherness, it is really all about YOU, the LOVE you feel within and what you radiate out into your personal world.
Unfolding the Inner Heart Centre
If you feel comfortable and safe with me, I invite you to spend a few days together. In my finca on Tenerife you can stay in your own little apartment with bathroom and chill-out zone.
You can relax, feel, integrate, write, sing, …
In our time together we can prepare and eat healthy food, talk about spiritual things, play gongs, draw oracle or tarot cards, go for a walk in nature …
… and experience how a deeper connection to our hearts opens up previously hidden pathways to a new LOVE within that will shine brighter every day and quite literally change the world around us.
Your comfort and personal boundaries are respected at all times. This journey takes place in a space of trust, where safety and consent guide the process of exploring, learning and growing.
If you feel an inner calling, have questions or would like to check availability, please get in touch via Whatsapp or Telegram: +491738532668.

Holding Space for LOVE
(from my blog)
When a man offers a hug or even a hugging meditation, some women will feel uncomfortable. He must be so needy! is a common reaction. Others feel they are being asked to give something, although the question was: Would you like to receive?
In a good hug, both are receiving, there is no giving and no ego involved because the connection is through the heart.
I feel that there is still a lot of forgiveness to be done to heal the old wounds of patriarchy! What I have learnt about the new healthy masculine is that we can provide a safe space for the feminine to open up.
The first step is clear communication:
- I’m not a healer and don’t offer healing.
- I’m not in search for healing, just for opening.
- I’m no more special than you are.
When I talk about hugs and hugging meditations, I prefer not to offer them directly to a woman. Rather, I give the vision of possibilities and let the woman decide if she wants to ask for it.
About Me
Born as the youngest in a family of psychologists and pedagogues, I strongly felt drawn to the more unconventional paths of learning and discovering my abilities, gifts, and passions. I quit the school system early and preferred to spend three years in the Ananda Assisi community, initiated as a disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda (Autobiography of a Yogi) by a direct disciple, Swami Kriyananda.
After three years of community, meditation time and inner development, I followed LOVE and adventure, and was drawn into the maelstrom of the “modern” world. I learned how to drink and party, how to become addicted to an unhealthy lifestyle, and how to become either burned out or depressed as a result. In some long relationships, I loved my partners, endured both LOVE and suffering; experienced all which life had to offer.
I experienced business life in its various phases – ups and downs, different directions and goals – designing advertisements, logos, or websites, bringing people together, making professional videos. I also studied and practised hypnotherapy and relaxation therapy practices, producing my own library of guided imagery and audio meditations; more than 80 titles are available in German.
On the beautiful island of Tenerife, I re-connected with my spiritual needs.
While programming apps for meditation and relaxation, I consulted various shamanic guides, participated in ceremonies with and without traditional shamanic plant medicine, engaged in cleansing and transformational rituals, and attended many retreats in complete darkness.
Right at the start of The Big Change in 2020, I was contacted by my spirit guides. They knocked three times at my door, quite literally: I found small pieces of wood on three successive days in my food, and wondered how to interpret that, if this was all a half-awakened dream universe.
I found out I’m not alone. I can communicate and, more importantly, LOVE my spirit guides. They are part of me and I feel one with them. Just like me, you also have at least two spirit guides. Until now, my guides have never given me wrong information. We trust each other and LOVE each other.
As for my daily life, I strive to live a fairly regular life – writing a lot. I also enjoy the wonderful nature of Tenerife. A few years ago, I was gifted a sailing licence course and I adore taking pictures, meaningful conversations, creating art…
Through my intuitive writing, I learn and evolve. I ask questions and receive answers that surprise me again and again, even though I know the answers are coming from the same central well of cosmic knowledge that I feel within myself. So, writing often feels like remembering to me.
I experienced and wrote about chakra healing, kundalini, astral energies, other-dimensional experiences, shamanic ceremonies, conscious and sacred sensuality, and how to work through the inner processes on the spiritual path; such as fears or emotional pains.
For myself, I found that there is one formula that surpasses all: LOVE. When LOVE is present, then multidimensional healing and growth follow.
