Snuggles & Sound Bath

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 facilitated workshop exercises will be lead like usual that happens in a cuddle workshop (cwtch connections) then there will be option to rest into a group(s) for a 40minute sound journey (the space will still be held by an assistant to ensure safeguarding), or to rest into your own space during the sound journey - which you can decide at the end. Then there will be time to come round from the deep immersive sound journey and share in circle our experience before closing and departing. 

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.
