I am super excited to share this interview with Diana Richardson who is considered one of today’s leading authorities on human sexuality. Diana is known as the pioneer of Slow Sex and has been running ‘making love’ retreats for couples since 1993. She has also written 8 books on how in practical ways a person can experience a more fulfilling sex and love life.

I have every one of Diana’s books and her work has hugely influenced both my personal and professional life so to chat with her is always a treat.

My partner and I are very honoured and excited that we are now authorised teachers of Diana and Michael Richardson’s retreats - The Making Love Retreat® and we will be bringing this to the UK in Autumn 2025. You can find out more via the link below.

Diana Richardson is considered one of today’s leading authorities on human sexuality, and she is known as the pioneer of Slow Sex. She has written 8 books on how in practical ways a person can experience a more fulfilling sex and love life. Born in South Africa in 1954, she first qualified as a lawyer (B.A.LLB), and then trained as a massage therapist (ITEC) in the UK. Her interest in the body and healing prompted an intense personal exploration into the union of sex and meditation - the essence of Tantra. Since 1993, together with her partner, Michael, she has been sharing her insights and experiences with couples who travel from many different parts of the world to participate in their informative and life changing ‘making love’ workshops in Switzerland.
