We set agreements to open a safe container where everyone's voice and needs feel respected and valued
Step by step you are guided to gently guided into this safe container, firstly connecting to ourselves, then connecting to other participants in authentic expression of emotion and desires with non-physical contact.
As and when you're ready, you're invited in for ways to bring in gentle touch in embodied learning of boundaries and consent.
in groups, we open ways to align our own desires for touch with others that long for a similar level of contact.
The workshop ends in a group sharing of cuddles before closing the space and the journey we've shared together.
Everything is an invitation, the workshop is guided so that wherever on the scale of intimacy (within this non-sexual space) you desire then that can be met - and that includes options given for non-physical contact or limited contact throughout the workshop.
Come for a Cwtch, and receive connection, love, safety, nourishment, oxytocin and SO much more that will only be understood once you experience it...
This workshop for women only, if touch & connection feels too much in an open mixed gendered space, then come to cuddle within our sisterhood. A cuddle can look many ways - holding hands, eye gazing, being in presence of love and connection with one another, or maybe a cwtch too.
