What is The Art of Being® ?
The Art of Being® is a remarkably human path of personal and spiritual growth. Touching, passionate, humorous, and celebrative, it is potent in its power to transform and awaken! It calls you into the present and teaches you how to keep being here when old habits would shut you down or impair your wholeness and your intimate connection with life happening here and now.
Art of Being® workshops and courses cut through the intellectual and verbal layers of knowledge and information to the sensing-feeling depths where you can learn to truly befriend and appreciate the totality of your being. They enable you to heal the wounds that keep you limited, open to all your inner resources, celebrate your nature as a sensual man or woman, find fulfillment in your friendships and intimate relationships, and live in an ever-deepening communion with the spiritual dimension of existence. They nurture consciousness, compassion, grace and beauty in the way you live your life.
The workshop themes are those which touch and move us the most deeply: sex, love and intimate relating; our death and birth; and the art of being fully ourselves in our daily living. Whatever the theme, the essence is the same; to be here now is to be in love!

About Alan Lowen
Alan Lowen has been teaching for 34 years and has established an international reputation as a guide for people seeking to accept, integrate and celebrate all the aspects of their personal life and being. He studied psychology at London and Oxford universities, trained in many areas of personal growth and spent 8 years as a disciple of Osho Rajneesh. In 1986 he returned to the public arena and founded The Art of Being® as a path to happy, healthy and enlightened living. His workshops and courses focus on the energies of the body, feelings, emotions, sex, self-expression and the soul. The purpose is self-realization, heart awareness, life fulfillment and spiritual awakening. He chooses to engage with the essential personal themes of our lives - with our nature, our stories and relationships, with sex and love, with the influences on us of our birth and childhood, with the universal experience of death and dying. Above all he invites us to honor and celebrate our own unique art of being.

About Jan Day

Jan, who lives in Hawaii with her husband Frieder, has trained with and assisted Alan Lowen for the past 19 years. She began teaching Art of Being® workshops in 1999, and has taught extensively in Europe.
Her life and work have both been strongly influenced by her own experiences with The Art of Being®. The themes of sexual healing, self-acceptance, forgiveness and loving kindness are central to her life and work.

“I have been divorced and married. I have known the darkness of depression, the despair of great loss and the joy of finding my way home again. More than ever, I have seen the basic goodness of life and of people. Forgiveness, meditation, gratitude and the all-embracing life acceptance of Tantra are the core values of my life.”

The Hoffman Process is an 8 day intensive residential course in which you're skilfully and compassionately shown how to let go of the past, release pent-up stress, self-limiting behaviours and resentments, and start creating the future you desire. Since 1967, more than 50,000 people world wide have used the Hoffman techniques to achieve personal strength, clarity, and inner peace. They have also felt the benefits of developing loving relationships with family members and being able to communicate more effectively at home and at work.
You're skilfully led through a carefully structured series of powerful experiences which enable you to discover and resolve negative conditioning, allowing you to recover your natural self confidence and self esteem.
" The Hoffman Process is the most systematic method I know for properly exploring the role of childhood as well as offering a motorway back from the past" Oliver James, Clinical Psychologist, author of 'They F*** you up' and presenter of Britain on the Couch
