I am now a totally unqualified YES! I had a major break-through. The workshop cut through all my defence mechanisms, cautiousness and suspicions

Elizabeth Juen, Norfolk

Rose as a symbol for opening the Heart

Presence is what we all, men and women, love and long for. Intimacy is boundless. It fully engages our whole being as we open to all that is happening when we open to ourselves and open to each other without a goal. We cannot then help but open to spirit too and sex and intimacy becomes a sacred journey. Sex meets soul.

On this day, you are invited to begin to connect or to reconnect with your deeper feelings and reclaim your natural wholeness. This is a journey of infinite exquisiteness and insight, a journey into the realms of touching and being touched physically, emotionally, and spiritually, a journey which is always new and unknown. The art of being intimate is however one that can be learned and re-membered, in these explorations of all it means for us to be intimate as men and women.

You have a gift to make the other to feel heard. Where my words might fail you read with your heart. Heidi Ovarassi, London

I feel juicy and in my power as a woman Rashnu, Edinburgh

 

Our habitual and often unconscious patterns – which we believe can protect us but which cut off the senses and feelings, frequently become barriers to intimacy with the people we meet, with our loved ones, with our own being, and with spirit. You will experience a simple meditation and guided processes, and an open sharing circle to begin the profound opening that can lead us into real friendship with and acceptance of those patterns - in ourselves and others - and into an opening far beyond them. You will have insights into your ways of shutting down or hiding, your ways of communicating or not, your choices and boundaries, within a very safe space held with integrity. There will be opportunities to gain clarity about who you are and what you need in relation to others and how to stay clearly connected with your own simple beingness as well as staying open and available to others – and to see and feel and befriend all that gets in the way of that.Our alchemical work will include meditations, guided structures, and open sharing circles which open your heart allowing trust, confidence and sensitivity. This can lead us into real friendship with and acceptance of those limiting patterns - in ourselves and others - and into an opening beyond them. Men and women will spend some time separately with their own sex.

The invitation is to shed limitations and realise more deeply the peace and power of presence. You are guided on a journey to reconnect with our feelings and reclaim our natural wholeness, into the realms of touching and being touched physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

You will re-member how to be more and more fully present with the person you are with, to create safety and holding, how to be more intimate with your own being, more fully honouring of all you are and of what life is bringing you now, how to surrender more and more to your essence. It is a very powerful liberation and healing to be in circles like this, sharing and responding, nourishing each other, celebrating being together in the way we all need deeply and can claim again for ourselves.

Through opening to our natural innocence we free ourselves into playful, joyful and loving relating into reconnection with the depths of being and with all that is.

Suitable for singles, couples, those with experience of intimacy work and beginners, this day offers a gentle, powerful way to re-discover yourself as a sensual and spiritual being, to live with more awakeness, joyful aliveness and presence. It invites the possibility for more passionate connection with ourselves and others. A deeper yes to all that you are, all that others are and a surrender to all that is in existence.

I can't recommend Joy highly enough for wisdom and effective facilitation
