In this episode, we once again talk about the Love Community (#64) – this time through the eyes of co-founder Stefanie Eifler.
Stefanie, who everyone simply calls Steffi, loves to combine her two passions and immerse herself in a world of aesthetics – in the beauty of tangible forms just as much as in the beauty of human connection. Whether as a graphic designer and artist or as an initiator and personal companion, her motivation is to welcome people just as they are. To soften their gaze, to create connection, to open and illustrate new perspectives, and to support each person’s heart energy to flow, and finding the way into their own authenticity.
She will share to you her own journey: how a tantric seminar opened her eyes to deep self-acceptance. How she moved beyond a destructive self-image and societal expectations into her authentic self. She shares about which role sexuality has played in this process, and what new freedoms can emerge when we start questioning norms we grew into.
Steffi will offer us insights into how she puts her artistic skills in service of people: in the form of intimate portrait sessions, massages, cuddle sessions, or tangible expressions such as books to take home. All with the intention of empowering the individuals who come to her.
The first of these propositions is especially close to her heart. One might wonder what purpose a portrait of one’s own intimate area – like the Yoni (Sanskrit for the female genitals) – could serve. For Steffi, it is about recognizing the own, completely individual beauty. About letting go of ideas of how we “should” look like, perhaps processing transgressive or difficult experiences with sensitive support, or simply discovering oneself anew. All of this within a respectful, confidential, and caring space. A jointly created ritual opens the way to the next step of self-empowerment for those interested, and this remarkable step is then manifested in a poetically inspired image.
Steffi has already accompanied several Yoni-bearing individuals along this path, and in the meantime has also begun to support the first Lingam-bearers (Lingam is in sanskrit the word for the male genitals).
We will talk about why this physical diversity is scientifically proofed aesthetically beautiful to the human eye, and how each person’s individuality brings richness into our lives. This episode is about the unity and diversity of being human – across borders, language barriers, or personal stories. Because the language of the heart – affection and empathy – is universal.
If all this resonates with you, feel invited to let this universe of the Love Community grow, and simply contact Steffi directly with whatever proposition interests you most: hello((at))intousia.com
