About this Retreat
Nils is a visionary, author and guide. His work focuses on emotional openness, inner balance, and living in deeper connection with ourselves, each other, and the world around us. He offers support in areas such as emotional healing, forgiveness, and creating safe, honest spaces for human closeness and hugging meditations.
His approach includes heart-centred presence, secluded time in darkness without distractions, exploring the balance of feminine and masculine energies, and gently meeting and embracing the hidden parts of ourselves. He shares about nourishing the body and spirit through fasting and tuning into the body's natural energies. In relationships, he explores open, connected and mutually caring ways of living within a relational network.
Much of Nils' writing is guided by a sense of trust in something greater – a deeper consciousness within life, Mother Earth, and the wider universe.
Details of this retreat
Would you like to support others emotionally and energetically by offering one of the oldest and most powerful forms of medicine known to humans? We're talking about conscious, caring, non-sexual touch, such as hand-holding, hugging meditations, and full energetic presence. You would offer this to your future guests with an open heart, in a clear and safe setting.
This is what an Energetic Heart & Soul Companion does. During this 10-day one-on-one training course at Finca Sanuela in Tenerife, you will be guided step by step through the core practices, including heart chakra breathing (the foundation of everything), conscious hand-holding, energetic heart work, various somatic practices, and hugging meditations in different positions.
You will learn how to hold a safe space, communicate clearly about allowances and boundaries, and stay grounded and heart-centred when you or your guest experience strong emotions.
Along the way, you will also move through your own inner process: meeting old fears, shame and protective layers with compassion, because you can only hold space for others as deeply as you have learned to hold it for yourself. This happens naturally as part of the training.
By the end of the ten days, you will have the understanding, the experience and the inner confidence to offer this healing presence to others, during sessions, in friendships and partnerships, and in the way you move through the world.
What Makes This Retreat Special
In addition to detailed explanations of the practices, you can experience them for yourself, step by step. This includes Heart Sharing, the Embrace of Trust, Energetic Heart Chakra Bubbling, a technique for dissolving energetic knots and blockages, Heart Storm, Light Painting, various forms of hugging meditation, Sacral Bloom, and more. You can practise all of these in real-life interactions and integrate what you experience into your body and being.
Safety and consent form the basis of everything we do. You will learn how to prepare a guest for a session, how to communicate consent effectively throughout the session, and how to handle emotions (including those that may be inconvenient or confusing) without losing your grounding or crossing a boundary.
Your own inner opening is part of the process. You cannot hold a high-frequency space for another soul if your own doors are closed. The training includes shadow work, forgiveness practices and honest sharing, so that your personal transformation happens alongside your learning journey.
Full immersion intensifies the experience. Going phone-free and trying a light raw or plant-based diet for ten days gives the training the quality of an initiation. Once your nervous system has settled and your energy has cleared, the practices will no longer feel like techniques, but rather like an integral part of who you are.
During this personal training, you will work one-to-one with Nils at Finca Sanuela in Tenerife. There is no fixed curriculum or certification exam, only a guided immersion into the healing frequency of LOVE, personalised according to where you are and what your heart is ready for.
The Retreat Experience
It doesn't matter what time you arrive. After picking you up from the nearby bus station, there is no pressure to begin anything. We settle in, share some food or tea, and simply get to know each other. If you like, we can draw some oracle cards together to receive a first intuitive sense of what this time wants to bring you.
Before we begin any practice, we talk openly about where you are, what has brought you here, and what you hope to gain from the training. We also cover the fundamentals of safety and consent together, which is not just a formality, but the first practical exercise of the training. You will see that this conversation is already an example of what you are here to learn.
From the first full morning, the training begins to take shape. People are often surprised at how quickly the practices move from feeling unfamiliar to feeling deeply natural. Heart breathing and hand-holding are not complicated. They simply ask you to slow down and be fully present.
As the days unfold, the practices deepen. You may experience unexpected emotions, such as a release, a memory or a quiet realisation. There will also be moments of unexpected lightness and joy. Both are welcome here as part of the work.
By the midpoint of the training, you will begin to step more fully into the role of the Companion – practising how to hold space, how to offer presence without agenda, how to remain grounded and heart-centred. This is where the learning becomes most alive: not in the theory, but in the actual experience of offering this human medicine and feeling what it does.
The final days carry a quality of integration. Something has usually settled. The practices feel less like things you are learning and more like things you are remembering. You leave with something that cannot be taken away: a lived experience of what it means to be a truly open, present and loving human being – and the confidence to share that with others.
