FIRST, WHAT IS A SEX PRACTICE?
A Sex Practice is the ritual of your partner and you
routinely co-creating a specific time and place
to clarify, connect, communicate, heal, and/or co-create
with the intention of moving toward naked pleasure and connection together.
DURING THIS ONLINE & GUIDED SEX PRACTICE, identify who you are in the bedroom right now, who your partner wants you to be, and who you are when your sexuality is given alllll the permission to experience pleasure, desire, and arousal exactly the way you want to without getting frozen in performance.
This experience will support you to illuminate what’s in the dark by clarifying, connecting, and healing around your sexual selves. We’ll go through:
An individual gestalt-inspired sexual archetypes practice with four pillows
Holding space for our partner to share four different angles around their highest sexual expression
Introducing our partner to our most pleasurable sexual self and four lens through which to understand ourselves better
FOR QUEER FOLK, HETEROSEXUAL FOLK, ASEXUAL PEOPLE, MARRIED PEOPLE, SEX WORKERS AS WELL AS THOSE PRACTICING CNM OR MONOGAMY.
All loving couples are welcome and invited.
HERE ARE THE DETAILS OF WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM OUR SEX PRACTICE FOCUSED ON HOLDING SPACE FOR SEXUAL FEEDBACK?
CREATE YOUR SPACE: Before you arrive and once we start, you’ll be invited to create a spot—ideally in your bedroom, and the couch or kitchen table works, too—where you feel comfortable and safe enough with each other. You can also bring what invites the most presence and connection for you. Having a candle to light sets an energetic intention to focus on one another, and having a hand towel and your favorite oil or lubricant nearby makes for easier shifts to sexual intimacy if you both want to.
INTRO: I will introduce myself and you both to starting a Sex Practice as well as why we're gathered live and online in service of collective belonging. I’ll invite everyone to turn their mics and video off.
ON A DIAL CHECK-IN: I invite you to check in on a scale from 0 to 10, how open are you to having sex right now? Where zero is, “No, thank you. Not right now.” and a ten is “Yes, please. Let’s take off our clothes.” and anything from 1 to 9 is a willingness, a curiosity, a maybe coming from our sexuality and our body.
SHIFTING & INTENTION-SETTING: Fifteen minutes in we’ll begin the formal Sex Practice with a guided meditation for meeting yourself, coming into presence and connection as well as our intentions for this Sex Practice.
RESOURCING, ARRIVING, & ORIENTING: I’ll guide you to locate a resource within your or just outside of you for any time you feel overwhelmed, panic, or a sense of flashback during the Sex Practice. We’ll finish by arriving and orienting to the space before we move on.
SEXUAL ARCHETYPES EXERCISE: Move through a gestalt-inspired exercise with each of you placing four pillows on the floor or four chairs in a diamond shape to see and then embody:
- Who you are in the bedroom right now
- Who your partner wants you to be around sex
- Your highest, most pleasurable, most alive and confident sexual self
EXPLORING THE DIFFERENT ANGLES PRACTICE: Next, your partner and you will take turns with the four pillows or chairs while one of you at a time connects with and shares what's holding you back from stepping more fully into your authentic sexual self from each of these spaces:
- Fears
- Inner child
- Desires
- Higher wisdom
RECAP & AFTERCARE: The two of you will be given an equal amount of time to share around the following topics:
What did you experience?
What did you feel?
What did you love?
Would you want anything different?
What would support you to feel cared for, supported, safer, and more grounded in yourself and from your partner as you leave the space and head into the rest of your evening?
ON A DIAL CHECK-IN: I invite you to check in on a scale from 0 to 10, how open are you to having sex right now? Where zero is, “No, thank you. Not right now.” and a ten is “Yes, please. Let’s take off our clothes.” and anything from 1 to 9 is a willingness, a curiosity, a maybe coming from our sexuality and our body.
TAKE IT HOME: As we come to a close, I’ll give you a sense of what to expect while continuing to process and integrate this experience and how to bring it home with you. You’ll receive an email from me within 24 hours with our recording and additional offerings for support.
