The basics of love
Relationship seminar
For couples & singles
Relationships are a central part of our lives and we all long for them to nourish and fulfill us – in partnerships, families or friendships. It takes a lot of awareness and mindfulness to have a fulfilling, respectful, passionate and loving relationship in which each partner remains individual and takes responsibility for their own feelings, needs and desires.
Relationships need courage
Our 3.5 day seminars are about relearning the basics of love. In guided meditations and carefully designed exercises, we will explore our fundamental hurts, because they are the source of conflict in relationships. When we explore these inner spaces, a door opens to deeply hidden feelings.
By reconnecting with and expressing these tender and vulnerable parts of ourselves, we can begin to understand, accept and transform our old patterns, wounds and protective mechanisms. We begin to let go of negative identifications and open up to depth and passion in life. In this way, we also rediscover our natural vitality, joy, ability to love and stillness.
The focus in this work is on personal responsibility, non-violent communication and the appreciation of who we are. Our seminar offers the opportunity for intensive self-awareness with non-confrontational, sensitive work that is also very effective. In addition, there is room for individual topics, challenges, questions and concerns.
"Love is the foundation of a happy life - not just in a relationship!"

Time for the essentials
A deep relationship with yourself, your partner or other people requires attention and care. Both are often lost in the hustle and bustle of our everyday lives. Everything else seems more important, time for ourselves or our relationship falls by the wayside.
It is time to take a courageous step and trust our own greatness, follow our hearts and surrender to what connects and nourishes us.
We recommend this seminar to couples – but also to people who are in a relationship and want to delve deeper into relationship issues without their partner. This seminar is also valuable for all singles who want to deepen their ability to relate to themselves and others. In addition, this seminar is suitable for young couples who are at the beginning of their relationship and wish to create a healthy foundation for closeness and intimacy.
Love is the basis of a happy life – not just in a relationship!

Testimonials
Feedback "Fundamentals of love"
At the weekend I had the unique opportunity to take part in the "Fundamentals of Love Seminar". An incomparable, nourishing, deeply touching, horizon-expanding, energizing experience! I feel blessed and would like to thank all participants from the bottom of my heart. Especially to the seminar leaders! THANK YOU for this great opportunity to participate, which I can only wish and recommend to everyone. You two are a blessing. This peace work on a small scale is so healing and gives hope for peace on a large scale. Aho !!!
I am so grateful for these days of coming to myself, of recognizing and feeling.
I was able to surrender with confidence. My heart was able to expand when I listened, when I was in contact, in the encounters with myself and others. I experienced a feeling of coming home to myself. Getting to the bottom of my shame and then feeling the irrepressible life force within me was pure joy. It felt like a triumph, a victory of life and love!
Since those days, I feel more present and with sharpened senses and a clearer and finer perception.
I would like to thank you both, Manuela and Carsten, from the depths of my heart, for setting up these days, for the safe framework, for your attentive accompaniment to our injuries and healing. For the gift of getting in touch with my essence, feeling its beauty, its power and its tenderness and love!
Still touched by this experience of inner liberation, of giving our love the deep space we wanted again. In the countless seminars I have attended during my life, your seminar is absolutely outstanding, I would even say the best I have ever attended. You two, Manuela and Carsten, live the heart man with his profound knowledge and showed us through your authentic interactions during the seminar that it is possible to free yourselves as a couple from crises and to reposition yourselves.
What a gift! What a divine spark! THANK YOU BOTH!
My partner and I were looking for ways to deepen our relationship and get closer to each other. The seminar gave us both and much more. We were able to understand our patterns and emotional stories and how they show up in our relationship. This gave us the key to changing the way we interact and communicate. We finally saw each other more clearly and now understand each other better. I am so grateful for the work that Carsten and Manuela do. They have helped us to recognize the inner work that needs to be done so that we can love more deeply and fully. They also gave us a concrete structure that we can use in our daily lives to maintain personal responsibility and positive ways of communicating in the relationship. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for tools and space to grow their relationship.
The "Fundamentals of Love" seminar was so wonderful for me personally and for my relationship. We gained a deeper understanding of the causes and ways of dealing with difficult and recurring situations, especially in everyday life as a couple. We now have a new language to address these, to understand them better and to be able to resolve them, which is so wonderful. I was also able to reconnect with my inner child in such a good way, which feels very healing... Every exercise this weekend worked. Manuela and Carsten are wonderful seminar leaders - very empathic, very holding, so authentic, very good notes and they created a great space to feel safe, feel inspired and let in. Thank you so much!!! Learning, but above all for this space full of mindfulness, appreciation, protection and love! To be allowed to be as you are, to be able to show yourself with everything that is there, to bring yourself out completely, that is what I was able to experience. I came back from this training week with renewed courage and strength. Dear Manuela, dear Carsten, I feel that what you both bring into the world is so infinitely valuable! Thank you from the bottom of my heart and see you soon from Anne.
Thank you for 4 rich and deep days with Manuela and Carsten in the seminar "Living Love". Through your presence, experience and openness, you create a space in which (re-)connection with yourself and your partner, healing of old wounds, empowerment and orientation towards a future in lived love takes place. The tools are very valuable, the practical exercises go deep and the theoretical inputs are well thought out and are presented in a good and catchy way. You can also feel that you are carried by a vision of a "new world". An all-round recommendable seminar for all those who are tired of "more of the same" and have the courage to leave their comfort zone.
The training for equine assisted coaching was so incredibly loving and at the same time so instructive. You have created a wonderful space where learning was possible in such a playful, intensive and at the same time professional way. The connection between you, the horses and us as participants was "tangible". This makes learning fun and easy! Many thanks for that!
It was an absolute heartfelt experience and I am so grateful for this wonder week full of experiences, which allowed me to travel a little further to my heart and inspired me so much. Thank you to Manuela and Carsten, you put so much heart into it and our group was absolutely amazing.
I felt really comfortable, seen, safe, protected, supported and accepted by you. These days of training are a great enrichment for my life. You held the space for me in such a loving and present way as I have never experienced from others. Thank you so much for that!
We look forward to seeing you
