Welcome to Cuddle Party!A workshop on Consent and Communication, cleverly disguised as a Pajama Party.
Have recent events left you feeling deprived of opportunities for touch? Do you feel stressed, overwhelmed, isolated, or alone? Have you ever said yes when you really wanted to say no? Do you struggle to ask for what you really want?
If any of this sounds like you or you are just curious then you are invited to pack your PJs, your favorite pillow, and a snack to share and give yourself the gift of a Cuddle Party.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
The first hour will be a workshop on consent and communication. We will discuss the rules of cuddling, play games, and practice saying Yes and No. This will include an opportunity to state boundaries and set intentions. The remainder of our time will be devoted to "Freestyle" cuddling. Here you will be invited to explore with your fellow cuddle enthusiasts and practice the skills you learned during the workshop. You will have a safe space to ask for what you want and negotiate with others to find connection that is mutually supportive.
Possibilities Include:
❤ Massages
❤ Head Scratching
❤ Spooning
❤ Watching/observing
❤ Saying "No" to everything
❤ Talking
❤ Dancing
❤ Holding hands
❤ Napping
❤ Hugs
❤ Reading a book
Conscious, consensual, non-sexual touch possibilities are endless. You can expect to experience a deeper sense of connection that can sometimes lead new friendship, personal insights/awareness, feelings of belonging, tears or laughter.
WHAT TO BRING:
❤ Bring your curiosity, playfulness, and sense of adventure.
❤ Please wear clothing that is cozy, clean, comfy, and helps you feel relaxed. There will be space to change when you arrive.
❤ You are encouraged to bring your favorite pillow or blanket. Stuffed animals are also very welcome.
❤ There will be some snacks provided. Please consider bringing something to share.
