Have you ever felt rejected or abandoned? Or have you felt that you are not getting the attention and love that you would like? Everyone experiences this – it comes from our primal wound; the ‘Abandonment Wound’.
All humans experience the feeling of separation. We first experience it as babies – when we don’t receive the care, attention or love we need, it creates feelings of disconnection and fear.
As adults we may experience it as:
• A hunger for attention.
• Seeking approval.
• A need to feel valued and accepted.
• An underlying fear and mistrust.
• A desire to feel connected.
When we feel rejected or not attended to, especially by who we view as our source of love or self-worth, then our abandonment wound is activated and it triggers suffering. This might look like tantrums, complaining, isolation, blaming, silence, demanding… anything to not feel the emptiness of abandonment.
The feeling of separation or abandonment on the one hand puts us in contact with a primal pain – but on the other hand, it offers us the opportunity to meet it with awareness and love. We can begin to live less in expectation and lack – and more in love and harmony, existing in the flow of life that we are longing for.
In this modul we will dvelve into:
• How our emotional world works and how we have learnt to avoid it.
• What the abandonment wound is and how to manage it in a nourishing way.
• Co-dependent relationships vs. nurturing relationships.
• Demands and expectations: the cover up of the abandonment wound.
• Why we repeat painful patterns that sabotage our love and intimacy and how to stop doing it.
• How we destroy intimacy and self love: Trying to control the other one. Trying to change him/her. Playing cool/being distant. Expecting the other one to cover my void.
• How to handle and manage our insecurities, fears and emotional wounds in a healthy way.
• How to create healthy, mature and nourishing relationships with yourself and with others.
Feelings of not being enough, shame and unworthiness begin early in life. Even as babies we begin to receive a model of how we ‘should be’, how we ‘should behave’ and how we ‘should feel’.
The message we receive is ‘The way I am is not good enough, my natural way of being is not ok, which starts our pretence of becoming “someone else”.
This in turn brings up the subconscious belief: ‘If others see me as I really am, they will not like me, they will not love me. I will be rejected’
This results in a disconnection from our true essence, causing frustration, suffering and eventual exhaustion. Preventing us from being seen and loved for who we really are.
Our emotional world is waiting to be received with acceptance, love, and approval for who we truly are. When we understand how this fundamental fear of not being good enough works, our entire world takes another dimension from that moment; enabling us to relate in love and freedom with ourselves and others.
In this modul we will explore:
• How our emotional world works and how we have learnt to avoid it.
• Why – even after investing so much energy in seeking approval and being loved – do we still experience this feeling of being inadequate?
• What is shame, unworthiness and the sense that I should be different to who I am – and how can you bring the light of love and consciousness to your emotional world?
• How we might hide our shame through: a feeling of superiority, pride, dishonesty, playing the saviour role, addictions, shyness, isolation, etc. How these armour patterns create more suffering – and how to deal with it.
• How to approach shame, unworthiness and the fear of not being good enough in a healthy way.
• Meditation as a method to accept and love yourself.

Bruno is passionate about self-discovery and emotional awareness. He began his journey in a monastery; teaching and practising meditation at the Wat Ram Poeng Meditation Centre in Thailand.
He then spent seven years living at the Osho International Meditation Centre in Puna, India. Here he learnt ways to translate the benefits of meditation into every-day life. He studied and deepened his practice through courses and training on subjects such as active meditations, co-dependency, Eriksonian hypnosis, Tantra, and he has attended training by his friend and master Ketan Raventos.
For more than 20 years Bruno has been sharing his knowledge and experience in relationships and intimacy; teaching and facilitating across Europe, Asia, and online.
Bruno says:
“I tried intensive meditation, silent retreats, therapy, hypnosis, recreational drugs, plant medicines, gurus, tantra. I sensed there was a more satisfactory way into self-love, nourishing relationships, and deeper intimacy but I could not find the answer. I was seeking and seeking, waiting for circumstances to “get better” but never solidly and fully feeling self-love nor life-love…
Then one day, the brightness of the infinite hit on my consciousness. A breakthrough! All of a sudden, after knocking on so many doors, there was nothing else to wait for.
Here it was. The “big embrace”. 360 degrees’ acceptance!
Love. Surrendering. Not one inch to move out of NOW. Nothing to fight, no more war against reality. Connection. Blending with what is.
Since then I have been sharing the joyful expression of what made me experience self-love, life-love and fulfilment.
My sessions, workshops and trainings are an extension and expansion of this discovery. I am honoured to be sharing this life-changing body of work with you.

I always say that in my life there was a point of no return, and that was meeting Bruno.
Yes, it is Love. The same Love that is always ever present and it is here right now as I write this.
Bruno guided us to the place in ourselves where we are Love. He takes you through a transmission ride to open up to this love, to have full permission for all emotions and to recognize who we are beyond the mind.
Attending his workshops and diving in, enjoying his clarity and joy for life, through dancing, meditation and silence, has made my life far richer than one can ever imagine.

I am grateful to have taken part in Bruno’s workshops as they are really the core of any future learnings of tantra or personal development, to be in touch with ones emotional world , learning to accept and hold space for ones own.
Also learning about relationship patterns had bought me to much awareness of it and the obstacles on the road to intimacy, I feel already able to speak more my truth in any encounter with people, healing the past wounds for genuine connections.
I would recommend the workshops to anyone who wants to learn more about emotional awareness and intimacy in relationships.
Thank you 🙏

I was lucky to be able to attend several Mindfulness in intimacy workshops in person with Bruno in Thailand.
For me it was a before and after in my life and in the way I related to myself and other people. It helped me to become aware of my emotional world and above all to connect with my heart.
