Consensual Cuddles: Group Cuddle

~ QTBIPOC cuddlers + allies ~

Relax and learn consensual communication and platonic cuddling skills in a gently guided exploration with Consensual Cuddles.

We will use an alchemy of well-tested communication exercises to share platonic touch and cuddles in community.

In this guided and experiential group session, you will learn and practice consensual cuddling skills, such as saying ‘no’ with self-compassion, exploring different cuddle positions, and receiving platonic touch in trust and play.

Session Flow:

• opening circle
• somatic grounding
• consensual cuddling practice led by Jozelle
• reflection + discussion
• create your own cuddle adventure in community
• closing circle

While touch is very welcome, it is not required to participate. There will be spaces to stim, witness, and take breaks.

There will also be space for platonic spoon trains, bear hugs, reading, journaling and much more ~
