About this Event

Join me at Community Cuddles with Mare where you can relax in a welcoming environment and feel connected to yourself and a sweet group of people. All genders and orientations - individuals, groups and couples - are all welcome.

HEALTH REQUIREMENTS - To keep our events safe, here are our health requirements for attendance: Do not attend if you are feeling sick or have closely been around someone who is sick.

Community Cuddles with Mare is a guided social experience that includes a welcome circle, easy relaxation activities, communication exercises and a description of cuddle etiquette. The event culminates in a "cuddle laboratory." Touch is always consensual and never a requirement to participate.

At Community Cuddles with Mare, you may experience an increased sense of well being and belonging, a boost in compassion and playfulness, a decrease in blood pressure and a better night's sleep.

Community Cuddles with Mare provides opportunities to meet new friends, connect with partners and pals in a soulful new way and be part of a warm, safe and huggable tribe

Agenda
6:45 Arrive and get settled. NOTE: doors close at 7:15 sharp
What to Wear

Info: Dress in clothes that are comfortable for snuggling. Soft, cozy pajamas, cotton t-shirts, sweatpants, leggings are all welcome. Tank tops and shorts are okay for the warmer weather. Feel free to change clothes when you arrive. Hygiene is important at cuddles - be squeaky clean and minty fresh - it's easier to get close that way! (Note: come free of perfumes, colognes, body spray, and cigarette smoke. Some of us have sensitive noses - thanks!)

Guidelines

Info: These guidelines are like the “etiquette of cuddling." We’ll go over all of them and answer any questions you have during the workshop. Here are some important ones: Keep attendance confidential (unless given permission). There’s no touch required (and you can change your mind at any time). Respect the boundaries of others (ideally with enthusiasm). Keep activities at a Rated G level and conversation at PG-13. Ask and Wait - if you want to touch someone, ask. Then wait for the answer.

What to Bring

Info: You are welcome to bring a pillow or blanket - cozy comforters, sleeping bags, all are welcome with the cooler weather. You are also welcome to bring a healthy snack or drink to share. (No alcohol, please)
