Essentials
|
Sarongs/ Travel Towel
Two or three sarongs are recommended. We will use these to cover our mats, as cover in massage etc. Travel towels also work exceptionally well, Some women like to wear sarongs for practices in the warm weather. 
|
White Clothes
Bring a set of white clothes. We will use for some rituals. For men, simple pants and t-shirt is fine. For women you can choose either pants or a dress, as you like. We only use these one or twice, so don't invest too much into this. 
|
Sexy Clothes
We ask you to bring an item of clothing that you feel celebrates your sexuality, or opens up a new expression of creativity. It need to be a typical "sexy" outfit...just whatever liberates energy. From animal print to see-through, burlesque, all-white lacy, your favorite underwear or something you never dared to wear before! Go for it! 
|
|
Notepad and pen
To make your own notes in. You will be getting a course book from us as well. Some people like good old fashioned pen and paper, others use an ipad etc. but note that power sources can be a limitation if your technology runs out (or bring a back up battery) 
|
Natural Massage Oil
This is an essential of any Tao tantric kit! It is best to have some completely un-fragranced and natural oil...if you can eat it then it is natural! You can buy coconut oil easily when you arrive if you have a few days. 
|
Yoga/ Qigong Clothes
You will want a few sets of light and comfortable clothes for yoga/qigong. Bear in mind that it is about 30 degrees every day in Thailand! If you have some, then bring them with you. But there are many great options available at excellent prices locally to the retreats.

|
Blindfold or a Headphones Eye Mask
You will need an eye mask for blindfolded meditations. We may also have strips of material you can use, but many women like to have an eye mask. We also recommend (but not essential) to buy an eye mask with headphone embedded inside as this is amazing for resting to music or sleep hypnosis in your breaks or when travelling. Find on amazon.com

Dance Veil (for women)
We like to have a veil to use as a dance prop for women. Once you have used one, you will want to keep one always! You can buy a proper veil or you can buy 2 meters of semi see-through material from a fabric store. 
|
Water Bottle
They have a water filter at Neshima Restaurant for free refills. However, you will need your own container. We recommend to write your name on it in permanent marker so that it is easy to identify. 
|
Flash Light
The location is set in jungle landscape. It has low level lighting, but you may want to bring a torch to navigate the landscape at night. 
|
|
Mosquito Repellent
We are all different when it comes to mozzies! You know your own relationship with them! It's always better to have some repellent incase you need it. There are many natural and effective brands available. We recommend avoiding brands with DEET in them as this is a very harsh chemical. 
|
Sunglasses
OK...we might sound like your mother even reminding you of this...but it is worth getting proper UV protection glasses before you come rather than cheap copies once you get here! Look for a UV symbol inside the arms of the sunglasses. 
|
Small to Medium Sized Luggage
As you are likely sharing a room with others, please keep your luggage small to medium. 
|
|
Red Dress
We celebrate our sexuality and power with the colour red. Look for a simple red sun dress, or something more sexy and wild if you feel drawn! You can buy these easily in the local area.
