We are presenting two workshops in Singapore – Art of Soul Gazing and Art of Deep Listening!
These two workshops were well-received at Wonderfruit (Dec 2018), at Conscious & Mindful Eroticism with Dr. Martha Tara Lee in Manila (March 15 and 17), and at Philippines Flow Festival March 29 – 30 this year! These workshops are simple yet profound, practical yet life-transformational, and you really want to attend them at least once in your lifetime! The practices you will be learning will change the way you relate with people – personally and professionally!

The Art of Soul Gazing – Open to Singles/ Couples
At this event, we will ensure an even number of people will meet and split into pairs, each of whom will spend up to two minutes looking into each other’s eyes. Let time and space stand still – and see if sparks fly!
Pre-registration and payment is required.
Testimonials:
“It was very deep, with busy life and routine we often forget about who we are and how we develop our contact with our souls. This workshop, though very simple, will make you different and more connected with yourself and sympathetic to others. Thank you Martha.” – Nouf Alammari, Kuwait, 4 Sept 2018
“Soul gazing not just helps you understand others but also yourself. As in what is a soul seeking, wanting and focused on. It gives another dimension of who you are and how to perceive the greater world around you.” – New age enthu guy, 26, 2 July 2016
“It was admittedly quite disconcerting at the first try – gazing into a stranger’s eyes with the sole intention to sense/ understand him/ her. But once you get past the initial discomfort and observe the thoughts and feelings that arise, it became an amazing experience to feel another person’s soul in a non verbal way.” – Tan Jiatong, 2 July 2016
“I wasn’t sure what to expect at the Soul Gazing workshop, but I was very pleasantly surprised and appreciated my insights and connections from the workshop. While it was strange to be consciously and mindfully looking into someone else’s eyes, after the first few seconds, I felt more at ease and could connect in some sense with my partner. The most touching exercise was the mirror work, the opportunity to look deeper into myself. It was a very well thought out programme. Thanks Martha for facilitating and cooking dinner!” – Ling Ling, 36, 2 July 2016
“It was a very liberating experience. It taught me confidence and to come out of my comfort zone to actually look at my partner in his eyes when I talk to him. It has also helped me in better connecting with my partner. I have actually started to make a conscious effort to look at a person’s eyes when I talk to him/her.” – Pearly Phua, April 2012

2) The Art of Deep Listening – Being Male/ Female
Do you know the difference between hearing and listening?
Have you been told you don’t listen?
Would you like to be a better listener?
This is a practice circle where there is no teacher other than life itself.
We want to listen better because listening is about information, knowledge, and wisdom.
Listen because your life depends on it.
Without deep listening, we cannot be there for our beloved.
Deep listening connects, heals, and is love.
We want to love deeply… feel deeply… and so let’s listen.
Listen deeply.
Let’s listen with our heart.
P/S… every practice circle will be different! Join us and meet new friends!
Testimonials:
“Really eye opener, simple yet effective way of listening that we may ignore in our daily life. Also, kind of reinforcement to our believe for any positive attributes and attitudes, and let us correct, improve anything negative of lacking into positive and achievements.” – Anonymous Male, 18 Sept 2018
“Martha, many thanks for a lovely evening. I was amazed at how complete strangers opened up to each other in a controlled and safe environment. Enjoyed the listening experience very much.” – Mark McGeoch, July 2018
“Fabulous, fun, friendly. What a fun time I had at your evening. I had a chance to meet new people some of them are friends now. I felt comfortable with how you facilitated it and would recommend it to anyone. I look for to the next one!” – Dr Jeremy R Unwin, June 2018

About Dr. Martha Tara Lee
Surrounded by friends who were sexually inhibited and struck by dire lack of positive conversations around sex and sexuality in Singapore, Dr. Martha Tara Lee set out to make a positive difference in embarking on her doctorate in human sexuality before launching Eros Coaching in 2009. Today, she remains dedicated to working with individuals and couples who wish to lead self-actualised and pleasure-filled lives.
She also holds certificates in counselling, coaching and sex therapy, and her fourth degree – a Masters in Counselling in May 2018. In practice for more than 10 years, she is the only certified sexuality educator and certified sexuality educator supervisor by the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT) in Singapore. She is also a Red Tent Women’s Circles Facilitator from Star of Ishtar.
Often cited in the local media, Dr. Lee is the appointed sex expert for Men’s Health Singapore, and Men’s Health Malaysia. She was recognised as one of ‘Top 50 Inspiring Women Under 40′ by Her World in July 2010, and one of ‘Top 100 Inspiring Women’ by CozyCot in March 2011. She has published four books: Love, Sex and Everything In-Between, Orgasmic Yoga, From Princess to Queen and {Un}Inhibited.
Martha works with individuals and couples in private coaching sessions, and conducts her own workshops. She takes prides in making sure all her workshops are also fun, educational, and sex-positive. This comes easily to her because even though she is extremely dedicated and serious about her work, she fundamentally believes that sex is meant to be fun, wonderful, amazing and sacred. As such, this serious light-heartedness has shone through again and again. For her full profile, click here. Email her here.
