Connect with your natural gift to Love
The Alchemy of EcosexualLove combines practices and principles from Tao, Tantra, amorous inclusiveness, and sexual fluidity to empower participants to reconnect with their natural gift to love.
By Dr. SerenaGaia, aka Serena Anderlini-D’Onofrio
This sequence of three workshop is for people with the desire and courage to love fearlessly and unconditionally. When you overcome your fear of getting lovesick, of being rejected, of being consumed with jealousy, and of pleasure, what will keep your loving nature from becoming fully expressed?
This introductory training helps to dissipate these four major obstacles to love. We welcome diversity, appreciate consent, emphasize confidentiality, and support all forms of amorous expression.
Join us as we transform fear into love with the Alchemy of Ecosexual Love.
This content is organized in a sequence of three main 90-minute segments or workshops.
- # 1: Know and Love the Ecosystem called Thyself.
- # 2: Know and Love the Partner We all Share, the Earth
- # 3: Know and Love those Who Share this Partner with You, Humankind
Workshops # 1 and # 2 focus on Tao and Tantra, workshop # 3 adds fluidity and inclusiveness (compersion).
The sequence can be complemented with an introductory evening, which may include a puja and a 30-minute documentary film, and a final ceremony called Wedding of Ecosexual Love. The ceremony may be followed by a facilitated celebration party.
The transforming program helps people overcome their fear of love. It works successfully with groups and in communities. Segments of it can also be included in gatherings and festivals. It has been produced in Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Italy, and Estonia.
As a recent attendee commented:
“The Alchemy changed the way I can receive or give touch, the way I feel about sexuality and the Earth. You created a bubble where we all could connect and be true to ourselves and show ourselves. You inspired me with the power of the energy that hands can create for another person in connection with the natural elements.”
– Karolina, attendee of the workshop

What is the Alchemy of Ecosexual Love? Che cos’è l’Alchimia dell’Amore Ecosessuale? It’s the alchemy by which widely diverse people come together to celebrate each other as lovers who already always share a partner, the Earth. E l’alchimia che fa si che persone molto diverse di trovino insieme per celebrare loro stessi come amanti della compagna che già comunque accomuna tutti e tutte: la Terra.
Recognizing each other as metamours involves a new energetic awareness of those who also love this partner. Riconoscersi come metamori comporta una nuova consapevolezza energetica per chi come noi ama questa compagna.
For me this was a wonderful way to offer the world some of my most 
cherished gifts. Per me è stato un modo di portare al mondo alcuni del miei regali preferiti. It’s exciting to feel part of a new tribe and connected to a whole new set of friends. E eccitante sentirsi parte di una nuova tribù con un nuovo gruppo di amici e amiche.
I feel a very deep sense of gratitude for all those who could be with us this time, for those who supported us, and for those with a wish to participate (again) in the future. Sento un profondo senso di gratitudine per tutte le persone che hanno potuto unirsi a noi questa volta, per chi ci ha sostenuto, e per chi desidera partecipare (di nuovo) nel futuro.

provided these expressions take place among people who are fully consenting adults. Sex-positive education encourages self-awareness, open communication, good listening, and complete respect for the wishes and non-wishes of others. Learning to respond to a proposal with a NO, and to accept that NO with respect and gratitude is a first step in sex-positive education. A NO offered without apology or excuses is often a sign that the person who speaks is taking good care of themselves. Accepting this response with respect and reverence is a way to contribute to co-creating spaces where a profusion of authentic YES’es is possible.
Respect for diversity is a way of being in awe of the diversity of nature, including human nature. When we come from a place of love, we can appreciate the value of people’s choices even when they don’t correspond to ours. For example, we can respect open relationships without practicing them, and learn to experience compersion as a way to overcome the fear of being consumed with jealousy. The programs in The Alchemy of Ecosexual Love are designed to empower participants to evolve their talents in the arts of love and to become artists of Ecosexual Love.

participants for the vows. The practice called “Know and Love the Ecosystem Called Thyself” performs an attunement with one’s own personal ecosystem. The practice called “Know and Love the Partner We All Share: Earth” performs an attunement with the all encompassing ecosystem called Gaia, and the four elements that characterize it: air, water, fire, earth. The practice called “Know and Love those Who Share this Partner with You: Humankind” attunes participants to fellow humans as “metamours,” or people with whom we already always share a partner. The Wedding is a moment of union that synergizes the attunement process.
