Daña as an expression of generosity
Tijs Breuer offers some of his work based on Daña. He often offers meditations, retreats and some treatments on a voluntary basis. This is done in the Buddhist tradition of Daña. Daña is a Pali word that means 'generosity of heart' or 'release' means. It plays a central role in the history of Buddhism.

In our contemporary Western culture, many trained Buddhist meditation teachers still honor the traditional form of teaching – meaning that they depend on the generosity (dana) of their students and followers for their income. One of the reasons is that the Dhamma, the Buddha's teaching, cannot be expressed in money because its added value to your life is priceless.
Tijs Breuer: “In addition to the meditations and retreats, I also occasionally work in individual sessions or trajectories based on Daña. This creates an equal starting position, in which you have the feeling that you are with a sparring partner instead of with a therapist or service provider. Afterwards, the other person shares what he or she has benefited from it and decides for himself what he or she wants to donate. Incidentally, donations are also subject to VAT and income tax.”
When attending a meditation class or retreat, it is common for a basic fee to be charged for expenses such as room rental and food costs. The time spent for organizing the retreat and guiding the (meditation) process is then based on dana. In this way, both those organizing the retreat and the participants are invited to practice generosity. The person who organizes the retreat does this unconditionally. Without any particular expectation.
Dana is therefore not a fee for the services rendered, but a gift from the heart. You generally pay for the facilities, the food and the management costs, but not for the teachings offered by the teacher. The teacher devoted his time to the teachings, or retreat, and relies on donations in the form of “daña” to pay for his living. Historically, when a student donates money to support a teacher's livelihood, it is considered a genuine form of spiritual practice, and it is the teacher's habit to humbly accept what is offered.
In the teachings, daña (generosity, letting go) is one of the most important practices from the heart. It is also the first of the ten “paramis” – or character traits – that the Buddha urged his students to cultivate as a way of lessening their suffering and increasing their joy. Dana is so powerful because it can help both giver and receiver develop more loving-kindness and compassion, deepen an awareness of our interconnectedness, and discover the joy and freedom of non-attachment.
Your voluntary contribution and your generosity helps Tijs to live a simple life, devoted to healing and teaching, and also allows him to take time for his own practice, for continuous enrichment of the meditations and teachings.


Meditate together in a Sangha
A Sangha is a circle of (online) friends who practice the Dharma together to create and maintain consciousness. The essence of a Sangha is awareness, understanding, acceptance, harmony and love. The tradition of Sanghas comes from Buddhist communities of monks and their followers.
Together you can focus on different forms of consciousness expansion. For example, there are Sanghas that focus on sharing experiences in the form of a heart circle of sharing circle, in this way you reinforce each other's growth process. There are also Sanghas aimed at creating moments of silence, or to practice specific meditations such as breathing meditation with each other. Personally, I highly value Sangha's aimed at strengthening self-love, self-touch and mindful masturbation, because in a small, safe group you can get to know each other and inspire each other.

Why establish a Sangha?
It is not so easy to create a routine of regular meditation on your own without the help or support of others. A Sangha is therefore the best way To practice meditation regularly, participating in a Sangha can be extremely helpful. Such a group offers you deep support and wisdom. This applies to both beginners and experienced practitioners.
How do I start a Sangha?
It is best to start small, with a minimum of four practitioners. Agree with each other that you help each other to create a routine of meditation or other forms of personal development and awareness expansion. Schedule fixed moments when you can meet each other (online), so that in addition to your individual practice, you can also practice together and inspire each other. You will find that as the group gets to know each other and become more familiar with each other, there is an energy of a community in which understanding and compassion is present for each other.

Thich Nhat Hanh on the Sangha
Thich Nhat Hanh explains that sangha is more than a community, it is a deep spiritual practice.
We need a sangha. In my tradition, we learn that as individuals there is not much we can do. Therefore, taking refuge in the Sangha, taking refuge in the community, is a very strong and important practice. When I say, "I seek refuge in the Sangha," it does not mean that I want to express my devotion. No. It's not a matter of dedication; it's a matter of practice. Without being in a Sangha, without being supported by a group of friends motivated by the same ideal and practice, we cannot get very far.
If we don't have a supportive Sangha, we may not get the support we need for our practice, which we need to nurture our bodhichitta (the strong desire to cultivate love and understanding in ourselves). Sometimes we call it 'beginner spirit'. The mind of a beginner is always very beautiful, very strong. In a good and healthy Sangha there is encouragement to the mind of our novice, to our bodhichitta. So the Sangha is the ground and we are the seed. However beautiful and potent our seed is, if the soil does not give us vitality, our seed will die.

How can a Sangha help us?
Gathering with like-minded people offers a wonderful opportunity to infuse the collective energy of the Sangha into our bodies and consciousness. We benefit a lot from that collective energy. We can entrust ourselves to the Sangha because by practicing meditations together, you become familiar with each other. A collective energy of connectedness and awareness is created. We can of course rely on the power of mindfulness, where you increase your own energy and awareness through personal practice. But sometimes that is not enough, sometimes it is difficult to come back to yourself without outside support. In those moments it is nice to know that the Sangha can support you. If you know how to use that energy of mindfulness to receive the collective energy of the Sangha, you will have a powerful source of energy for your transformation and healing.
Do you want help in establishing and developing your Sangha?
Tijs Breuer guides individuals and groups in setting up a Sangha, by bringing people together, by guiding meditations, sharing circles, self-love and tantra exercises and other forms of consciousness enhancement. He does this on the basis of donations, donations and voluntary contributions (daña).

Do you want to completely relax for a weekend, without having to travel far? Do you need time for deep relaxation, time for yourself to let go of the daily stress? Christian and Tijs offer you a weekend city retreat to give yourself this gift. It is an ideal opportunity to connect with your body, enjoy touch and find peace and quiet in your head. You will be completely pampered with fun yoga exercises and we give each other wonderful relaxing massages. This way you will enter the autumn with a healthy inner harmony.
You will come into closer contact with yourself this weekend. The combination of massage and playful yoga brings you more balance for your body and mind. You open your senses, you experience how nice it is to move, stretch, sweat and make your body warm and full of energy. And you also discover how pleasant touch is, in an atmosphere of trust and connection. In addition to yoga and massage, contact and attention exercises are used. We also cleanse our inner self with healthy food that helps to "detoxify" our bodies.

Yoga
Yoga not only gives you peace of mind, it also helps you to let go. Some yoga poses give your organs an inner massage, while other poses lengthen your muscles and tendons. Christian's playful, inquiring and interdisciplinary form of yoga is inspired by ashtanga and vinyasa yoga. With meditation, breathing exercises and postures we work on more body awareness, strength, flexibility and let our energy flow. Some exercises are in pairs, to create connection with each other.
Massage
On Saturdays, the flowing massage mainly provides relaxation. We work with Swedish and Californian massage styles and deep tissue techniques. On Sunday we let everything go and we use massage techniques that remove all waste from the muscle and connective tissue and release energetic ballast. We do this with Alchemy of Touch massage and Myofascial Energetic Release.
Sharing
At various times during the weekend there is room for integration, through meditation and sharing your experiences with others.
Facilitators
Tijs Breuer is a life coach and masseur specialized in in-depth bodywork. He works a lot with mindfulness, body awareness and the power of loving attention. Tijs gives weekly workshops in which playful discovery and connection with yourself and the group are central.
Christian Wicke works as a general practitioner and yoga teacher, in ashtanga and vinyasa yoga. He likes to share his insights about and from yoga with others, in group lessons and 1-on-1 settings. In addition to teaching the practicalities of yoga, he also enjoys studying and debating yoga philosophy and its implications for our daily lives.

Eating and staying overnight
We provide lunch and dinner on Saturdays and lunch on Sundays. The workshop only takes place during the day, on Saturday and Sunday. Do you want to stay overnight on site? Then you can rent a guest room for €30. Or you choose a Bed & Breakfast nearby.
Everyone is welcome. This workshop is therefore open to all genders (including non-binary or transgender) and all orientations. Yoga or massage skills are welcome, but not necessary. We have a notaflof policy, so if you want to participate but don't have the money, please contact us directly.
Location: Heart Center Amsterdam
- District: Gaasperdam, Amsterdam South-East, Amsterdam
- Address: Veenendaalplein 147; 1106 CS Amsterdam
- Card: op Google Maps
Heart Center Amsterdam is a new venue in the quiet neighborhood of Gein (Gaasperdam, Amsterdam). There is a nice atmospheric group room and two practice rooms. The location also has a front and back garden with a fair amount of privacy, a simple kitchen and three toilets.
The space has recently been furnished and is rented out by Auke Jan Ebbinge and his girlfriend Camille. They provide a hospitable atmosphere where everyone feels welcome, regardless of your gender, origin or (sexual) preference. Workshops are given in the group room in the field of meditation, embodiment, breathwork, tantra, etc. Tijs Breuer has his practice here every Friday.

Our location and how to get there
Public transport: City bus 47, stop Wamelstraat (2 min walk). Metro 50 or 54 to the Gein stop (5-10 min walk). Car: Good accessibility from A9, A10 and A2. Free parking in front of the door.
Gaasperplas
Just a few minutes' walk from Heart Center Amsterdam is the Gaasperplas and the Gaasperpark. This is a large recreation area where you can run, cycle, walk (with or without a dog) and exercise.

The deep lake has very clean water, so you can swim well. There are several beaches, including a nudist beach.


Silent days – one or two days for yourself
You will find inner peace this weekend in nature. At the Maarsseveense Plassen, between the fields and the trees, we enter the silence together. We open our senses, we feel the wind blowing over the lake, we hear the movement of the tree branches in the wind, we watch the waves on the water and listen to our silence within. We would like to share this inner peace with you.

Practical
- Dates: Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 August 2022
- Times: From 9:30 a.m. (optional from 8:00 a.m.) to 17:30 p.m.
- Costs: voluntary contribution (e.g. € 50,00 per day)
We are silent all day, we are aware of our breath, we take moments for ourselves. We meditate by sitting still, by moving and by breathing. These days can be a good way to find out which form of meditation works best for you, so that you can create your own rhythm of “mindfulness” where you learn to accept and appreciate what comes in life. Yoga is on the program on Sunday.
This is a small scale mixed event, so everyone is welcome, all genders and orientations. You can participate for one or two days. Feel free to come at 8:00 am (for the early birds) at 9:30 am for coffee/tea, or at 12:30 pm. There is no evening program, but staying overnight is possible. There will be four meditations every day. In between you can read, walk, cuddle or just relax.
Everyone is welcome. We are open to all genders (including non-binary or transgenders) and all orientations. Some experience with meditation and yoga is welcome but not necessary. The meeting will be spoken in both Dutch and English.

Location
At Tijs Breuer's home.
Address: Chalet 69;
Westbroekse Binnenweg 56a;
3612 AJ Tienhoven (Ut)

Supervisors
The meditations are guided by Tijs Breuer, who has been practicing mindfulness and various forms of meditation since he was 15.
Eva Breuer is a certified yoga teacher and has about ten years of yoga experience. She likes to share her enthusiasm for yoga through weekly online classes. For her, yoga is really about the state of oneness with all that is. Eva's yoga classes are diverse, with a mix of breathwork, flexibility, playfulness and expression.

Program on Saturday
8:00 am walking meditation (for early birds).
The practice of mindful walking was developed by Thich Nhat Hanh. It is a profound and enjoyable way to deepen our connection to our body and the Earth. The earth is sacred and we touch it every step of the way. We breathe, take a conscious step and come back to our true home.
9:30 am Arrival / tea / coffee
10:00 PM Silent meditation
The nature of your mind is to generate thoughts. Like the ocean, it has its own rhythm and flow. It is to be respected, not feared or contested. Once you stop fighting your thoughts and let it flow naturally, you can begin to retreat into the depths of your inner self beyond the chaos and distraction.
12:30 pm Lunch (a salad is served, feel free to bring food to share).
13:00 am Breath Meditation
Connecting with your breath can dampen stress and open a door to a healthier and more mindful lifestyle. One of the easiest ways to reduce stress is to simply focus on your breathing. You will notice an immediate sense of relaxation that over time can help protect your health. There are many forms of breathing meditation where you consciously change the rhythm, speed or depth of your breathing.
15:30 Tea
16:00 PM Movement Meditation
Sitting still is quite difficult for most people because we are used to being exposed to stimuli all day long, while your body needs exercise. Movement meditation ensures that you quickly find your peace and return with your attention. You make an inner journey through an alternation of intensive and subtle movement. By focusing attention on your body, you experience what is going on inside you.
17:00 hrs Part round / closing circle (you can share how you feel).
17:30 End
Yoga on Sunday
The program is the same on Sunday, but instead of silent meditation there will be yoga at 10:00 AM. Yoga with Eve is not just about yoga poses. I see yoga as a way to connect with your inner self, your voice of wisdom deep within. Knowledge is in your body. By deepening your connection with your body, you come more and more at home in yourself and in the connection with that inner voice of truth. This is also where you find confidence that everything is exactly as it is intended and you are carried by life. We start the class with a guided meditation, before breathing (pranayama). This allows us to focus more deeply and clear energetic blockages. By shaking, the energy goes through our entire body. Then the yoga postures (asanas) will help you to become more flexible, gain more strength and connect with your body. At the end there is relaxation in silence.

Donations
The silence days are on a donation basis, so a voluntary contribution (eg €50 per day) is appreciated.

Five-day retreat – Experience tantra as a way of purification and way of life
For many people, tantra is equivalent to giving and receiving a sensual massage. Less known is that tantra is also a way of life. Recently I met Sunil, a Buddhist monk who lives according to tantric traditions and is eager to propagate this. He has no fixed income, but lives on donations. I would like to offer interested parties to get acquainted with the tantra way of life, by following a five-day retreat with Sunil, in my house at the Maarsseveense Plassen.

Practical
- Start: Thursday, August 18, 2022 at 15:00 PM
- End: Tuesday, August 23, 2022 at 10:00 AM.
- Location: At Tijs's home (Neptune Wellbeing).
- Address: Westbroekse Binnenweg 56a, Huisje c69 Tienhoven
Realizing Nirvana – the ultimate liberation – is a longer term goal. However far the destination is, one must start with a first step on the path, only then can one expect to bridge the distance path and reach the final destination. If you do not take the first step, you will not be able to reach the destination. This retreat will be for many the first step towards the destination (which is freedom from suffering and peace within yourself). You will know the path and you will know how to advance on the path.
This retreat does not promise any kind of bliss or miracle with supernatural experiences, but this retreat will help you understand your true nature of mind, identify or notice your own habitual blind (involuntary) reactions to the events and phenomena around you and in yourself (the reactions are primarily a craving for the feelings you experience pleasant or an aversion to the feelings you experience unpleasant, which are the cause of suffering and instability).

Slowly you learn to remain equanimed about such feelings and experiences (by working directly on your energy), and you begin to test your calmness and mental stability. You will learn the technique of coping with the inevitable changes of life and staying equanimed, so that you can apply these lessons in daily life after the retreat. This retreat will help you change your unhealthy habits (involuntary blind reactions) and adopt healthy habits (mindful reactions and actions). You will live 'Tantra' and as you walk further on the path you will become more peaceful and stable from within.
Two goals of retreat
- To ensure that no new sankharas (involuntary mental reactions and their mental imprints that yield {resulting} fruits in the future) are collected.
- Old accumulated sankharas are broken down and blocked energy is released.
Focus of the retreat
- Energy reorientation
- Tools to Balance Your Being
- How to cleanse your being and restart life wherever you are.
- Learning to experience the truth moment by moment
- Accelerate your awakening through Tantra techniques

Participant References
Sunil's silent retreat was a very nice experience, it felt like the familiar Vipassana retreats I had done before. At the same time it was very special.
Sunil fully embodies a deep southern calm in his presence and the way he guides the sessions.
Sunil's very diverse background as a former gay activist, entrepreneur, Nepalese politician and the spiritual journey he embarks on gives him the opportunity to see the many different ways in which people can enter life on the contemplative path.
Especially his unique approach to the ever-present obstacles in (my) practice is very helpful, accepting and 'light-hearted'. Sunil offers a nice balance between theory and practice; movement and stillness as well as strict structure and ease.
I have experienced Tantra as being present with all my life force, acting/flowing through my whole body. A very grounding experience and very complementary to other Tantric practices (a good combination with the tantra that Tijs offers).
Sunil combines his lifelong embodiment of the spiritual aspects of Nepalese society with the experience and understanding of Western society by living with his husband in the UK. He knows very well how to approach people of Western background who are looking for a more contemplative and compassionate way of life.
I felt so much more aware and present, my senses were fully awakened. Calmer and more at ease with myself and the world. Enjoyed practicing the “two milliliter lift” and the “Buddha walk” as well as the very effective stretches.
Today I had a Tantra massage from Tijs. Quite exciting for a hetero man like me. But what a warm, loving appearance that man has !! He loosened up a lot more than just the muscles. I have experienced this massage as very positive and have an experience richer. It was worth repeating. Tijs is really a fantastic masseur with attention to his client. Simply TOP.
I have now received a number of tantra massages from Tijs.
Every time it was an amazing experience.
Tijs is very patient and loving. He alternates a firm massage with a gentle touch. I feel relaxed after the sessions, and the muscles are loose again.
Since I do these sessions, I have considerably fewer back problems.
Really super. Thank you Tijs
I really liked the combination of deep muscle massage in the places where it was solid and sour, and the pleasant touch and skin contact elsewhere. With other masseurs in the past I have experienced either one or the other, but never combined. The fact that my body memory was activated and also evoked sadness and longing was unexpected, but felt especially appropriate and good: the sadness is just there, my experience is that it can be evoked by everything (from music, photos, films or books to the light in the house) but now through your touch it came up in a very direct or pure form. For the rest of the day I was a little drowsy, relaxed and also sad in a connecting way, not desolate. The following days I felt new energy, as if I had been rinsed clean inside. For that I would like to thank you very much.
I suffered from stress at work and booked a full body massage with Tijs in Tienhoven. I had my doubts because there are many pictures of men on the site. After the acquaintance, that doubt was immediately gone, Tijs is a nice man who knows what women need. What a relief, from the first touch a burden fell off me and gradually I could sink deeper into myself. All the hassle at work didn't seem important after that, I felt that I was alive again. I cycled home as reborn and relieved from stress.
I recently visited Tijs in Nijmegen. It was the first time for me. I was a little nervous anyway. But Tijs quickly put me at ease. He is an honest and kind man. A professional in his field. It was a wonderful experience. I really recovered. Recommended. I'm going again soon!
My tantra massage at Tijs was really great. His calm and friendly appearance gave me a very familiar feeling and made it possible for me to surrender to his hands quite quickly. Due to the combination of sensual touch with fairly strong massage techniques, I still have a wonderful feeling after a few days. I still feel a deep peace all over my body.
Yesterday I met Tijs for the first time. After a brief intake and telling myself about myself, Tijs started to massage my back and buttocks. This way the tension in my muscles was reduced in a professional way. Tijs has a good sense of what you need. I will soon arrange another treatment.
Dear Tijs, thank you for the wonderful massage workshop that you gave at Gravingen. I have learned so many new things and have given you a completely different perspective on massage. The safe and warm atmosphere that you created with your pleasant voice was also very pleasant. If you showed techniques I could feel how pleasant your touch is. I will soon come to one of your meetups or an individual massage if I am in the area. When taking my canvas with me, I also accidentally brought the cushion from the white massage table, which fits into that hole. I have now put it on the phone with Zoddestein. Greetings, Loes
Hi Tijs, I don't write references that fast, but this time it must be clear to me how wonderful your hands and your attention have been for me. I doubted beforehand because there are few photos of women on your site. Your e-mail reassured me and I am glad I came. You gave me exactly what I needed in this difficult and stressful period. Full of self-love and self-confidence, I came home, after which I dared to take the steps needed to move forward. When I'm in quieter waters again I will come by again soon. Greetings, Linda
Hi Tijs, you haven't heard from me for a while, but I often think back to the unique experience I had with you. I learned to discover myself in a new way through your words and your touch. That was nice but also confronting. After that a lot started moving. I would like to share that with you in person soon. I can recommend a session at Tijs to anyone who dares to take the step of self-discovery. Thanks! Thanks for being there for people like me.
Kind regards, Bert
Dear Tijs,
Thank you so much for the fantastic body work! Your loving touches, expertise and emotional involvement allow me to let go of everything and show you my pain and joy. The warmth you put on me during the treatment is soothing and heavenly. In it I can be myself and say goodbye to old sorrows.
Hello Tijs
I want to thank you for the special treatments that you have given me in recent months. During those monthly sessions, which were always surprising, you helped me a lot in my search for who I am as a total person. Those moments were very valuable because of the openness, safety and the space to be there. Now that I have a busy time of moving ahead, it will take a while before we see each other again. Know that the intensive contact will always stay with me, as the starting point of my change process, which is not yet over.
After the break with my partner about 2 years ago it was strange and nice to be touched again and now by the loving and powerful hands of Tijs. The few massages I had in the meantime could not be in the shadow of Tijs' massage.
He gave me a professional massage 'da non dimenticare mai ”(to remember)
Although we were strangers to each other, there was mutual trust from the first moment, which allowed me to fully enjoy the professional and perfect massage from Tijs.
I entered him with vague and untraceable complaints, and with a feeling of 'come on to the world' I left the building after the agreed time.

That was great enjoyment! But more than that: this reflects how we, as people, should deal with our bodies in contact with each other. I can hardly put it into words, but we often still have a cramped image of nakedness and sexual energy that prevents us from being fully human, in openness and respect for each other. The Tijs massage is the ideal image of how it could be done. I became aware of how beneficial that is and how much influence it can have on my life, not only my personal life but also my social life. My neck, which I have been troubled by osteoarthritis lately, was remarkably flexible afterwards.
Today, for the first time, I had a tantra massage at Tijs. Never expected a massage to be so relaxed and enjoyable. And that I (as a straight man) can feel so comfortable with another man. For me this is worth repeating. Thank you Tijs!
Tijs, great to read your website. So honest, warm and yet open, exactly as I experience you in our sessions and meetings. You show your qualities and also your weaknesses and learning processes. For me you are an example of how I would like to present myself in a work.
Sincerely,
emmalia
I didn't expect much from it, an online coaching session. But I was just sitting up and needed to spar with someone. It was very special to experience a deep contact so quickly and to talk about very personal things in my life together. I immediately felt at ease, you are very disarming and inviting. Thank you for your candor, you make me feel like I'm all right the way I am. I just needed that. I would like to make an appointment for a follow-up soon.
I first submitted an application, and then there was mutual contact in which I made known my background and goals. Tijs indicated by telephone what would suit me, MER, a form of bodywork. That helped me to make a choice, because I got lost in the range of various types of massages, bodywork and hugging treatments, tantra and so on. His voice immediately gave me the confidence and a good feeling that I ended up with the right person. At the first meeting, many emotions were released. Afterwards, we discussed coaching, which could take place in addition to the treatment. It was nice to experience that my previous contribution had been thought through, and Tijs made a good assessment of the underlying problem and thought about solutions. I experienced the first treatment as very pleasant, where I could relax enormously and let go of initial nervous tensions. A week later he asked how I was doing. I thought that was very thoughtful. We have made a follow-up appointment, because I feel inside that this is the right treatment method. I can honestly say the choice of treatment for neptune wellbeing is one of the best decisions I have made in 2020. I am now looking forward to the third appointment, where I hope that the corona measures will not be a bummer. Fortunately, he also handles this very carefully.
After the first treatment I recently had my 2nd session with Tijs, where we also planned some space to have a conversation. The more than healing effect of the bodywork, and the support it gives to remove blockages are a benefit for my body and above all my mind. I try to maintain the inner peace after a session as long as possible. We will continue to work on this in the coming sessions, to further accept my being and take my feelings and needs more seriously and give them a place in my busy life. I praise myself for the day that I took the step to go to Tijs for bodywork.
Hi I received a sports massage at my home. It was very relaxing and nice to be massaged in my own home. Tijs had his massage table and some music with him, I took care of the heating and candles and in no time my living room was turned into an attractive massage room. I immediately felt at ease, while normally I don't get undressed in the presence of another man. Tijs worked hard on my muscles. In many places I became aware of the waste products such as lactic acid that was still in my tissue. He also made me feel areas that were overloaded or stuck. Gradually a deep feeling of peace and pleasure entered my body. After that I slept like a baby and achieved good sports performance the next day. Thank you Tijs!
Thank you Tijs, thanks to your coaching and encouragement I have a new meaning in my life, I see new opportunities to find pleasure in my work and the relationship with my love has also taken a new path. It has delivered me so much more in a few months than I hoped.
I have no words! I am fascinated by the massage done by Tijs. It was such a great experience, so unique too. At any cost I will repeat this session. Thank you Tijs, very much. It was just amazing!
Last Monday I met Tijs for the second time and this time for a tantra massage. A great experience with this lovely and sweet guy. His magical hands together with his lovely body, cause a heavenly pleasure.
It was great and I will definitely come back.
It was my first acquaintance with Tijs. It took me a while to get used to him. But soon I felt safe with him. He gave me a nice massage. I would like to come back again. The surrender to his hands and the connection with him and with myself will certainly gain even more depth.
Had a session with Tijs today. Experience this as heartwarming and loving, so that the life energy flows again and connection is palpable. Thank you Tijs! Kind regards, Marianne
Dear Bert,
Your experience evokes recognition… I also gained similar experience with Tijs. It was really nice and worth repeating!
That which has been set in motion in you, has it continued to move? Do you experience development?
Just a spontaneous response from me…
Best regards from Peter
