Are you curious about a buffet of options that exist to choose from?

Do you want to have greater confidence communicating with your partner or partners around what's important to you around sex along with what your boundaries are?

We stick to the same

THREE MOVES

and

TWO POSITIONS

and rarely dare to explore our pleasure beyond our immediate comfort zone.

If you're struggling to: 

1. Embody and communicate the spectrum of your boundaries

2. Explore what sexual experiences are possible

3. Identify what you need and want around sex

4. Know how to communicate your desires and what you’re not up for

This exercise will guide you into deep sexual connection and intimacy with yourself for powerful clarity so you can communicate with your partner(s).

Join me for an hour long in-person workshop where I will usher you toward embodying the spectrum of your responses, exploring a buffet of sexual acts on paper, and developing confidence sharing what you need and want around sex.

Whether you're single, dating, in a new relationship, or one that’s been through some things,

This experience will name, educate, clarify, and support you to communicate:

  1. What you need because it’s important to you

  2. What you want or like or might want or like

  3. What you’re open to along with your boundaries

  4. What you’re not open to at all

FOR PEOPLE IN ALL BODIES, OF ALL EXPRESSIONS, AND IN ALL RELATIONSHIP DYNAMICS WHO WANT TO DEEPLY CONNECT, REKINDLE, & FEEL RADIANT AND ALIVE

Including queer folk, asexual people, single people, married people, sex workers, people who are dating or are in a relationship as well as those practicing CNM or monogamy

SKILLS & CAPACITIES WE WILL BE EXPLORING:

  • CLARIFYING different sexual acts that are possible

  • CONNECTING with our NOs, YESes!, maaaaaaybes, and "if you're into it, I’m open to it"

  • COMMUNICATING around the importance of honoring our curiosity, our partners' as well as everyone's boundaries

  • HEALING purity culture, patriarchy, misogyny, and rape culture by embodying curiosity and authentic choice

  • CO-CREATING our sex life with exploring, expanding, and communicating

When we've been stuck for too long doing the same things over and over again, we need a spacious, open opportunity to consider things we haven't done in ages or have never heard of.

HERE IS WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT:

  • BRING FROM HOME: A pen, pencil, marker, crayon, or something to mark numbers with. A pillow for your hips and a yoga mat and/or towel to lay on. Some pens, pillows, and yoga mats are available at A Healing Place if you don't have them to bring or forget. :)  

  • CREATE YOUR SPACE: Once you arrive, you’ll be invited to create a spot where you feel comfortable enough. For this event, setting up on a yoga mat with a pillow nearby is the first invitation for the embodied practice. You can also sit in a chair or on the floor. The latter part of the workshop will be exploring a worksheet, and you can shift to sitting on a chair, on a mat, or on the floor. A Healing Place has four different types of chairs available. It’s your choice based on your body’s comfort and access needs. You can also bring what invites the most comfort and presence for you.

  • INTRO: I will introduce myself, and I will not invite you to introduce yourself to everyone else. This is a workshop for you and not a group workshop or community-building event.

  • SHIFTING: We’ll begin with a guided meditation for meeting yourself and resourcing within the space.

  • EMBODYING A SPECTRUM: The invitation will be to lay down on a yoga mat or towel, and this can also be done and/or imagined from a chair. We’ll move through embodying our NO, our YES!, our maybe, and our "if you're into it, I’m open to it" as a fluid, open spectrum of possibility. This is so we'll be able to recognize how our body feels and what shapes it takes when communicating different responses.

  • EXPLORING SEXUAL EDGES: With a worksheet, I'll give you time to translate your body's communication to numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3. Given what you've embodied and experienced, you'll go through a list of sexual acts to identify, name, and clarify your response.

  • QUESTIONS & SHARINGS: I will be able to answer questions individually or for the group depending on people's preferences for privacy or sharing. We'll gently shift out of the exercise, and if there's time, I'll invite people to share only if they want to.

  • TAKE IT HOME: We’ll finish as I give you a sense of what to expect while continuing to process and integrate this experience and how to take it home with you. You’ll receive an email from me within 24 hours with a guided audio and additional offerings for support.
