A 7-Day Intensive Retreat
Master Your Energy is a 7-day experiential journey that explores your Energy and your Energy Exchange with others. A deep immersion over a number of days offers you the opportunity for a fundamental shift in your lived experience of yourself as an energy being and how others perceive, feel and respond to your energy.
“Everything in creation consists of energy vibrating at different frequencies.”
Why Energy Matters
‘It reconnects us to the part of ourselves that culture forgot - but your body remembers.’​
​Most of us were never taught how to feel or work with our energy body - our energy shapes our relationships, pleasure, clarity, vitality, boundaries, intuition, and personal power. It is common through lack of awareness to leak or lose energy, to be in an energy deficit, to unconsciously override our boundaries - or boundaries of others, to ‘sense things’, but lack the skills to interpret them. Your energy affects everything. This retreat can support you to reclaim it and reconnect with that precious and powerful aspect of yourself.
During this retreat, you are invited to explore energy in a very practical and embodied way - not as a theory, but as something you can actually feel, sense and work with.
Master Your Energy - A Structured & Progressive Journey
We approach energy as it shows up in daily life: in your body, your emotions, your instincts, your relationships and your sense of aliveness.
As your awareness deepens, the flow of energy within you - and the energetic field around you - comes into clearer connection with your body, your intentions and your choices. This often brings more clarity, agency and ease in how you relate to yourself and others.
Throughout the week, we explore how energy moves, responds and transforms, including:
-
how energy flows through the body and nervous system
-
regulation, activation and settling into safety
-
the connection between heart, mind, gut and sexuality
-
instinctual energy, boundaries and self-protection
-
expansion and contraction, charge and release
-
sensual and sexual energy as a source of vitality and presence
The Practices & Rituals
This is a deeply experiential retreat. While there will be moments of explanation, sharing and reflection, most of the week is devoted to practices, rituals and lived experience.
You will begin with foundational practices - sensing, grounding and regulating your own energy - and gradually move toward working with intensity, direction and conscious energetic interaction with others. The focus is not on “doing it right”, but on learning to listen, feel and respond to what is actually happening in your body and energy.
The journey draws from a blend of tantric practices, somatic awareness, shamanic intention and breathwork. These approaches are woven together in a practical and accessible way, allowing insight and change to arise naturally through experience.
This retreat embraces the power of sexual energy as a natural and powerful life force. You are always invited to engage in a way that feels aligned, respectful and true for you. Most practices do not involve touch or direct skin contact. In some sessions, optional touch may be offered as an invitation - never as a requirement.
Why would I need to learn about my Energy?
Energy is part of us and (mostly) we have not been taught how to read, feel and trust this part of ourselves. By some it is perceived or labelled as ‘imaginary’ and often now we are confused as to what is fairy-tale and what is reality. Many overt and covert messages have taught many of us not to value the part of us that is energetic; giving more weight and validity to our physical and mental aspects.

Do you feel it is time to change your relationship with your own energy and its connectedness with others? If you we would love you to join us.
Creator & Facilitator
ELAINE YONGE
My learnings and skills around Energy arise from Tantric and Shamanic practices, combined with 20 years of working as a clinical scientist, using many Energy medical modalities, including ultrasound waves and other energy medicine tools such as light lasers and radiofrequency. As someone with years of experience working with science, physiology and the body, I was a healthy sceptic and cynic when I was first introduced to this concept of ‘humans as energy fields’.
I realised that often people misperceive the relationship between the mystics and scientists. As someone who holds both a Bachelors’ and Master’s degree in Scientific specialities, my understanding is that science at its authentic core is always the question and not the answer.
"Your expression and way of teaching is motivating
and was one of the major turning points in my life.
Thank you deeply."

What participants expressed
after being on a Journey with Elaine
"When I decided to join, I had no idea what to expect. Throughout the week, I felt the journey was planned and constructed in the best way I could ask for - in the first days, learning the basics and experimenting with energy work on my body, gradually learning how to work with others’ energy fields."
“I gained TRUST in my perception and my body. I felt safe, seen and held at all times!!! AND completely in my sovereignty.”
“The way I am now able to feel energy - within and around me - guides me every single day in all my decisions and in how I meet and connect with others.”
“The greatest gift of the journey perhaps - as someone in a male body - is the deep sense of intimacy I have been able to cultivate with myself.”
“As a practitioner, I feel reinforced in my capacity to sense energy and especially in being able to be present and ‘empty’! My capacity to feel energy has expanded.”
“I leave this retreat changed in more positive ways than I ever hoped or expected.”
