Abdominal and Pelvic Floor Release, Sexual Healing and Opening

with Amara Karuna


Do you find yourself often too busy, too scattered, stressed or distracted by other people’s needs?
Is it sometimes challenging to know who you are, what you want and how you are feeling?
Do you feel emotionally numb or have digestive issues?
Feelings of being lost, overwhelmed and numb are symptoms of our inner disconnection from our deep core wisdom. We are trained by our culture to live in our minds, and ignore the beautiful beast that lives in our guts.

Power in Your Belly
That wild self is our connection to our old magic; the part of us that always knows the next step to take, that feels the flow of the subtle energies of the world around us. The Hawaiians call it the Na’au, the deep wise self, the wild child.

We will learn solo skills that you can using in everyday life.

Core Chi Activation-
Breath and movement for activating the core

Belly Bliss Self Massage-
Techniques for healing and moving chi in the intestines, bladder, prostate and uterus

Pelvic and genital massage for healing –
This is a unique and amazing kind of slow and penetrating touch on the pelvic area,
which most people have never experienced.
It is wonderful for healing any issues around sexuality, shame, body image and for
expanding our capacity for aliveness, pleasure, juiciness and full body orgasms.

Subtle Energy Self Discovery: clothed self massage around the belly and pelvis (wear loose clothes).
Loosen the tight spots around the perineum and genitals!

*Pelvic Breathing & stretching- Bringing aliveness to the pelvic area
*Acupressure points for pelvic healing

Amara Karuna

Amara has been studying healing since 1978, was a licensed masseuse in Oregon, having studied Swedish, Esalen and deep bodywork, Polarity and pressure point release. She was trained in psychic reading, healing and meditation, and taught Re-evaluation Co-counseling, an international method of peer counseling, for over five years, and has been studying and practicing it since 1983. She has been a professional counselor for over 30 years. Amara also developed Heartbeat Nurturing Therapy, a method of healing the inner infant-self using cradling, hypnotic induction and suckling to address emotional issues stemming from lack of breast feeding & loving closeness as an infant. She is the author of "Heartbeat Nurturing Therapy- Healing Our Hearts Together". In 1994 she began developing her own approach to peer counseling, called Wholistic Peer Support, integrating many ideas from RC with spiritual meditation practices, psychic healing and body centered techniques. She taught it to hundreds of people in Eugene, and then in Hawaii. This approach has been renamed Holistic Peer Counseling and has spread through the Northwest through several of Amara's students. It is constantly being expanded and re-created. It is actively being taught in Hawaii, Eugene, Portland and Seattle. She began studying Tantra and Sacred Spot work, a method of sexual healing, on Maui in 2003, and has since studied 6 different methods of pelvic bodywork. She has taught Sacred Sexual Healing Work for men and women, and led Tantra Pujas since 2007. She has been involved with Network for New Culture for many years and is the Director of the New Culture Hawaii Winter Camp. She lives in Oregon and on the Big Island of Hawaii in the New Culture community called La’akea Permaculture Community. Amara is a main organizer of the Oregon Tantra Festival, and the Cascadia Tantra Festival, both events that offer a variety of classes on sacred relationship and sexuality as a spiritual path. She also organizes for International School of Temple Arts, for their Level One and two week long trainings in sacred sexual healing through Karuna Retreats, in Hawaii, Oregon and Washington.
