Or are you kink aware but want to explore ways to incorporate this into your practice?In this informative and thought-provoking talk, James will help you to explore how an understanding of kink and fetish can be a wonderful gateway to understanding desire, normalise the breadth of human sexuality, and how they can function as symbolic blueprints for unmet needs, emotional wounds, or self-discovery.
