Reviews of the book
The magic of unintentional touch
Will be published in bookshops in Switzerland, Austria and Germany in the next few months.
In order to provide my readers with well-founded knowledge, I have consulted with a large number of experts. The result is a book that has been carefully checked and proofread.
“Based on my work and expertise, I have experienced and observed that sustainable change requires a longer process - and it can happen that you stumble. I wish you, dear readers, with all my heart that you find trustworthy companions and guardians of your secrets on your journey.
Psychotherapeutic conversations alone are not enough to heal, because not all experiences - especially traumas - can be consciously remembered. They are deeply anchored in our soul and must therefore be processed through the body. Only then is true healing possible. In addition to body psychotherapy, a tantric massage can also be a very enriching element - another piece of the puzzle in the healing process. This book and the therapeutic approach described are therefore a valuable addition to trauma therapy.
This book is recommended reading for any woman who wants to deal with herself, her needs, her body and its healing. As a professional, I can wholeheartedly recommend the approach described as a complementary accompaniment to (trauma) therapy! ”
“With her open, empathetic, easy-to-read and very personal book, Esther Janssen has managed to explain tantra to me as a trauma-sensitive lawyer in a sympathetic, objective and open way compared to other forms of therapy for traumatized victims. It seems to me that the ability to touch without intention and the trust in this as the basis for unconditional acceptance is absolutely central. Esther Janssen's book needs to be read!”
“Dear Esther, every woman should read this book! It has become a sensitive and loving work. It sheds new light on Tantra massage. It not only teaches the technique, but also the mental and physical injuries for which the massage can have a healing effect. You are a master at transporting readers into a world of mindfulness and sensuality. With clear instructions and inspiring stories from practice, the book is a valuable companion on the path to more intimacy and self-love. It is a true gift to femininity that encourages you to pamper yourself and explore your own sexuality in all its facets.”
“Through the tantric massage I was able to heal my last wounds of sexual trauma, and I felt personally addressed while reading - as if Esther had written just for me. As a therapist, I also heartily recommend the book because of its holistic approach.”
“Esther Janssen's book should be read by anyone who wants to enjoy a sensitive and respectful approach to a yoni. Many women have experienced traumatic or unpleasant experiences and do not know their yoni well or only in a negative context. Then it is wonderful if every wonderful woman can have a fulfilling, joyful and carefree experience of sexuality and pleasure. And this with a close person who only wants the best and can respectfully enjoy the detached pleasure with her.
In her book, Esther guides you to such a fulfilling, respectful and devoted encounter with a yoni. She shares all her knowledge with beautiful pictures and lots of heartfelt energy. As you read, you feel a kind of friend who introduces you to the mystery of Tantra massage and lovingly explains everything slowly and on many levels. So that you can solve a lot of things and enjoy them freely in the end.
I also find the spiritual level simple and easy to explain. What a marvel! From a physiotherapeutic point of view, the pelvic floor and our sexual organs are also an important and powerful place. If the muscles there are strong and relaxed, function well and support and hold us in our everyday lives, many back, abdominal, menstrual and breathing problems are a thing of the past.”
“I recommend this book from the depths of my heart. For healing of all kinds on topics such as femininity, primal power, creator power, primal trust, reconnection, traumas, self-trust, spiritual guidance, liberation, injuries of all kinds, releasing blockages and thereby getting the energies flowing again, etc. I am thrilled, there is so much experience, wisdom and heart in this book. I hope that this book will be carried out into the world. May this book provide many people/souls with valuable tips and techniques on their healing journey. It seems extremely important to me that many can learn of this knowledge and move on to wise application and practice. This book is blessed by the luminous beings who have accompanied the process of this book, I can feel that in every line. May it be crowned with the highest love that has flowed into this book.”
“A touching book!
Through painful, traumatic experiences such as those described in Esther Janssen's book, we can lose contact with our body, our soul and thus with ourselves. In order to get in touch with ourselves again, to take small steps inwards with confidence, we need tenderness and a space of safety.
In a protected and mindful environment, as described and lived by Esther Janssen in her book, healing and transformative processes can arise. I was particularly touched by the soft and sensitive illustrations in the book. I sincerely hope, dear reader, that you will also be touched by these gentle images. Especially if you are drawn to the topic of the book but still need some distance or time from the text.”
“I have known Esther for a few years now. Reading her book and experiencing her personal healing process fills my heart. The way she describes the connection to the spiritual world is so wonderful. To engage with this book is to be healed and to connect with the universe to experience magic.”
“I read Esther Janssen's work with great interest and can warmly recommend it. Her approach is powerful, personal and inspiring. It's wonderful to see how people with traumatic experiences can find new ways of processing and releasing blockages through alternative approaches - mindful, individual and supportive.”
“Esther has managed to bring lightness, beauty and meaning to a socially difficult subject. She encourages the world to engage with and heal female sexual energy - so that women can find their greatness and connection again. Thank you for your years of dedication and profound experience that you now share with all who may receive it.”
“Healing a trauma does not mean that injuries and scars are erased, but that the pain no longer determines your life.
Esther Janssen shows traumatized women a way of healing through tantra. Tantra is explained simply and clearly. It is about reconnecting with yourself and living a self-determined life. The author herself has also followed this path and gives an authentic account of the joy of life, spirituality and healing.”
“Esther manages to show tantra in a new, revolutionary light. People who have experienced sexual violence or abuse in their lives often suffer a lifetime of emotional and mental blocks that prevent them from living a pleasurable sexuality. Using the gentle touch approach, guided by the ancient technique of Tantra, Esther offers guidance to release these blocks. This book is for anyone who wants to work through their experiences, learn to let go deeply, and experience a new connection on a deep level.”
“This wonderfully sensitive book about tantric massage is much less about the physical aspects and processes (which are of course also explained in great detail) than about the profound emotional transformation that is possible when two people meet in a safe, non-judgemental space characterized by love. At the center of this is the power of unintentional touch, which, held by a clear intention, can convey precisely this safety both externally and internally. In this way, trauma healing becomes intuitively possible, beyond a classic therapeutic setting and without detours via mental concepts. Through step-by-step instructions and the interweaving of her own many years of experience, Esther makes the necessary knowledge accessible to everyone and thus tangible. The reader can either decide to engage in a tantric massage without fear or prejudice or to become active as a “giver” herself.
Seen in this light, this book is not only a beautifully illustrated manual guide to tantric massage, but also a sensual and completely “feminine” tool for finding more access to one's own self-love and self-acceptance and thus embarking on the path to physical and psychological wholeness.”
“Esther's work, whether it is expressed through her wonderful book or her magical touches, has a very special, very healing quality.
She is a special healing soul who reaches people in the depths of their being. As the all-encompassing channel that she represents, she allows universal divine healing power to flow into people's true essence...exactly where emotional wounds are located. This touches deeply and can bring about profound and comprehensive healing from there to all levels of the human being. That is something very special and wonderful. May her book spread this valuable message and help many people to heal.”
Seen in this light, this work is not just a beautifully illustrated manual guide to tantric massage, but a sensual and fully “feminine” tool for finding more access to one's own self-love and self-acceptance and thus embarking on the path to physical and psychological wholeness.”
“As a passionate cycle mentor, I am particularly pleased that Esther not only takes the menstrual cycle into account in her book, but also addresses it in such depth. She shows in an appreciative way how closely the menstrual cycle and sexuality are interwoven, thereby creating an important awareness. In a world where often only the external factors are discussed, it is refreshing to read how Esther describes the cycle as a central influencing factor on thoughts, feelings, desire and energy. With this book, Esther opens up new spaces for women to understand and accept their own femininity. I can wholeheartedly recommend her work and am grateful that she makes such a valuable contribution to the topic.”
“It is a masterpiece to transform these still very complex taboo subjects into a therapeutically understanding synthesis. The book manages to illuminate the world of tantra massage with deep attentiveness and respect for the individual healing journey - without drifting into esoteric exaggeration or clumsy physicality.
This book is an invitation to experience the body not just as an instrument, but as a temple of truth - as a place where not only pleasure, but also old wounds, grief and deep healing can have a place.”
