VIRTUAL & IN-PERSON EROTIC EMBODIMENT SESSIONS
((somatic intimacy coaching))
Eroticism is the art of aliveness, feeling, and desire. Embodiment is the tangible expression or representation of something. Erotic embodiment is the practice of listening to what excites us on a soul level, and bringing that to and through the body. Erotic energy goes far beyond the act of sex, and relates to anything and everything in life that brings you pleasure - poetry, dance, food, nature, music, touch, crying, laughing, etc. For most, if not all, of us, there are many layers of shame, conditioning, trauma, dissociation, and shutdown standing in the way of our fully embodied experience of pleasure, intimacy, and connection. These sessions are to help you identify and work with these blockages through experiential practices.
Do you feel disconnected from your body or your desires? Do you have a hard time acknowledging and speaking your boundaries? Do you fixate on your partner’s pleasure as a way of avoiding your own? Are you frustrated with a pattern that keeps playing itself out in your relationships? Are you disappointed in the sex you’re having? Are you fed up with unfulfilling intimacy in your sex life and beyond?
All of this is normal. All of this can be worked with. Healing and freedom are possible.
These one-on-one sessions are for anyone who would like to become more in touch with themselves and enhance their relationship to their body, self, and other. Influenced by trainings with SkyDancing Tantra, Somatica Sex & Relationship Coaching, and International School of the Temple Arts, we will work with somatic exercises such as breathwork, guided movement, and touch practices, as well as more talk-oriented practices, such as identifying desires, fears, boundaries, fantasies, frustrations, or working on communication skills. The intention of these practices is to move toward deeper self-awareness and fulfillment in relationship. You will be introduced to tools that assist you in showing up to relationship with more authenticity & integrity. These sessions are based on the philosophy that our sexual energy is not solely for the act of sex, but rather, it is creative life-force energy that serves as an internal compass ~ guiding us with divine intuition when we listen closely with relaxed attention.
We use vulnerability, mindfulness, and compassion to address deep wounds and tensions that may be restricting aliveness. We use movement, breath, sound, and touch to deepen connection with the body and access somatic release.
Specialties: queerness, ethical non-monogamy, religious conditioning, shame, body de-armoring, emotional release, inner child work, communication tools & movement practices
Before your first coaching session, I require a complimentary 20-minute phone consultation, as well as an intake form, to discuss what you would like to work on and see if we are a good fit. If you schedule a coaching session before a consult, the booking will be cancelled. This intake process is necessary to make sure we are on the same page before beginning work together.
