Come Home to Love, Eros & Your Body

We all carry a collective trauma. We fumble in relationship, we struggle with loneliness. We’re cut off from our bodies, their juices and smells and animal desires. We manipulate our sexual partners for external validation. We try to mimic porn sex. Men are men because they get laid. Women are women because they are desired. Happiness is rarely lasting.

Would you like to experience a different kind of world?
A world where we could slow down enough to feel safe in every cell of our body... where we could put the conditioning of our mind on hold… where we can move into our body and allow our senses to open and guide the way.

What if we could build a new culture together — based on trust that comes from speaking the truth?

What if we could bridge that painful gap between who we think we are in our minds – and who we experience ourselves to be through our bodies and hearts?

This world is here now. This is your invitation.

Together, in community, we will live in this new world. We will explore how to cultivate a loving, erotic embodiment in which all parts of us are included, even the parts that feel scary, amazing, too little or too much, different and not fitting the mold.
We will explore how we can relate in new ways and heal one another, unlock our organism’s innate ability to integrate and embrace all our contradictions. Come home, through your body. To your being. To one united whole.

In this community we will cultivate trust, solidarity and mutual support. We will move from experiencing ourselves as isolated, messed up individuals, to stand together in the devastating collective and historical trauma we have inherited. This cultural wound has left us in fear of and at war with love and eros. These sacred energies that created us and are the essence of our joy. This wound lives in every fiber of our nervous system, as a terror of not being worthy of love and a deep mistrust of each other. We come to fear the very essence of what it means to be human. We fear intimacy.

We can't heal these relational traumas alone.

But we can engage in simple and truthful ways of being together, by quieting down the regular, superficial chitchat of social interaction. We can enter into a profound transformational intimacy with one another. Come to a present, attuned, shared reality - breath by breath, sound by sound, movement by movement, touch by touch.

This is your future.

Journey home to your voice

As children and infants, most of us had an innate freedom in our vocal expression. An innocent, carefree attitude; humming as we played, crying out in emotion, copying the sounds and words that surrounded us.

Most of us have lost touch with this innocence and wisdom. It has been conditioned out of us.

The world regularly telling us that we are “too loud” or “taking up too much space”.

We find ourselves in adulthood, not freely expressing ourselves anymore. Instead, adapting to what we think is expected of us.
Singing in community is a deeply healing experience. It has been practiced in ancient tribes and cultures for millennia.

In The Intimacy Training, we will use the voice as a key tool of connection, community bonding and re-awakening self expression.

Through breath, movement and rhythm we will guide you to (re)-discover the instrument of your own voice. To connect with your voice as a tool of embodiment that can guide you back into your body… Descending into it… then, experiencing your voice rise up through it.

The voice is regulating. Soothing. Softening. Opening us into a collective resonance.

Get ready to explore and celebrate your individual voice as well as the group harmony.

In The Intimacy Training, we will play with both deep listening and hearing one another, as well as inviting individual expression and vocal freedom.

Are you ready to jump aboard this life-changing journey?
