About this Event
Note this is a WOMEN ONLY workshop
We all have desires in different area’s of our lives: romance, relationships, friendships, at home, at work, when we spend our free time and in intimacy.
Why is it so difficult sometimes to know what you want? Why can it feel so vulnerable to express a desire or to act on your desire? To really allow yourself to have it. Acting on desire can feel challenging sometimes.
On the 23rd of July we will explore and gently shake up this world of desires. We find playful ways to practice and inquire into this beautiful topic.
Having worked with many women I know that women often deal with the following questions and perhaps you can relate:
- ‘I have fear of expressing my desire. What if the other person responds negatively?’
- How do I see no?’ If my desire evokes arousal in the other but proposes things I don’t want to do. How do I deal with that?
- ‘I don’t feel I can hold my boundaries clearly. How can I make sure I take care of myself?’
- ‘I would like to ask more directly for what I want, I usually talk around it, how can I feel more confident?’
- ‘When I get in my head I lose connection with my joy and my body and I shut down. How can I stay true to myself?’
Desire is a vulnerable topic. We will explore how you can find gentle loving ways to open yourself up to what you want and ask for what you want in a way that feels inviting.
Women often suppress what they want. We are really good at taking care of others and putting our self and our needs last. Rather than being vulnerable and open, we start to avoid intimacy. This often leaves us feel empty, frustrated and with the feeling something is missing.
Truth is, we haven’t learned how to express ourselves powerfully and freely in this area of life. And we definitely didn’t grew up in an environment that encouraged us to speak about these things. Now it is the time to educate ourselves and give ourselves that nourishment and loving attention.
In this day workshop we will do excises that will help you free up and be connected to your desires:
- I create a safe space where you can be who you are. You discover, you are not alone.
- We do exercises to give words to your desire. You find YOUR self-expression.
- By sharing and being with other women you will be inspired and encouraged to find new levels of vulnerability and showing yourself.
- Learn how to communicate what you want in an open and inviting way.
- Practice setting boundaries.
- Leave with practices to implement in your life.
- We do exercises where we learn to feel into our senses and body. This will guide us connecting to desires and knowing what we want and need.
Note: there is NO nudity in this workshop.
I have worked with lots and lots of women in this topic and when women come together, it’s magical. You participate on a level that feels comfortable to you and you can always opt out of an exercise.
I keep the group small and we will have a maximum of 16 participants.
