    • From a Tantric perspective, why is slowing down so important in lovemaking, and how does it deepen intimacy?
    • What are the small, mindful rituals that create more freedom, trust, and love in our partnerships?

  • Ep 12. The Power of the Feminine

    In this powerful episode, Iris dives deep into the essence of feminine strength and explore the untapped power that lies within every woman. From history's suppression of women to the modern reclamation of feminine energy, she asks: What was so dangerous about women that they were once burned alive for their power?

    This conversation challenges the conventional notion of strength and success, offering a new lens through which to view power—one that doesn't require competition or suppression, but embraces authenticity, receptivity, and the deep wisdom that comes from being in tune with both our emotions and the natural rhythms of life.

    Whether you’re a woman looking to reconnect with your inner power, or simply curious about the feminine energy that shapes our world, this episode offers rich insights and a fresh perspective on what it means to truly embrace the feminine.

  • Ep 6. – Iris Disse on The Inner Rebel - S1 Tantric Wisdom & Shamanism

    In this episode Iris talks about the inner rebel and what it means to be a spiritual warrior.

    The only way to change ourselves, our relations, society is to start working for what we want. We have to do everything we can do so our life’s get aligned with what the great spirit wants from us. As humans the only freedom we have is to decide. Every decision we make to change ourselves also changes the world around us. That’s what we do as peaceful warriors. Step into a silent rebellion and recognize how the visions we create in our surrounding changes the world.

    “The school brought me to know that everybody that comes out is a seed of change. So, when they go back into their lives, they will create little islands of change wherever they go. For me that means to be a spiritual warrior now. To create spaces where I trust that people can experience themselves through different techniques, so they find themselves and transform the world.”  Iris Disse

    The Ritual: The ritual that we share today is a decision making ritual. Take 4 stones, create a triangle with 3 of them and the other one goes a bit further than the triangle. Two of the stones represent the possibilities that you're trying to decide. Go and meditate in each stone, imagine how your life would be with this possibility, what would happen when you take this decision full hearted. When you have it clear go to the next stone. Meditate and see what happens if you take this path. From there you go to the third stone and you meditate without judging and feel the energy that both stones give you. Don't try to decide just feel it. And then you go to the 4th stone and you see all the options from very far, by this time maybe you have it clear and you know which path you want to take and if not and ask for guidance and allow great spirit to show you. Sometimes the answer comes after the ritual.
