Join us for this weekend intimacy and relationship intensive. This workshop is for anyone and everyone- singles, couples and also those with alternative relating styles.

In this relationship laboratory we offer you the extremely unique experience of mind-blowing, heart opening, playful explorations of emotional, erotic and physical intimacy.

Embodied Intimacy provides a safe environment in which participants practice transformational processes of relating that accelerates the path towards deeply fulfilling relationships.

The heart of the practice we will utilize is Belly2Belly, a relationally attuned dialogue and meditation practice. Body to body. Heart to heart. Moment by moment. This practice and all the practices we guide are aimed to create deep presence and embodied relational attunement. We reach these deeply embodied states through the application of the tantric tools of breath, sound, movement, and touch.

Together we will create a playful relational laboratory by simplifying the components of relating, intimacy and physical closeness down to the most basic and fundamental elements. We are creating new possibilities by consciously putting the elements back together through consensual explorational interactions.

We invite you to relax and let go of the unique and shared ways we “try” to be in order to be accepted, loved, and wanted -from “doing” intimacy to “being” intimate. Within the safety of the environment you are gently invited to feel into what actually happens when you are together with another person.

All the experiences that arise within each interaction are welcomed within mindful awareness, including feelings of rejection, abandonment and critique, as well as feelings of attraction, connection and appreciation. We are just being together without any other agenda.

At an Embodied Intimacy workshop you can learn how to:

✨Establish a somatic sense of safety.

✨Identify a yes, maybe, and no in your body.

✨Hack your emotional operating system.

✨Optimize human connection.

✨Create transformational relationships through empowering vulnerability.

✨Alchemize your social anxiety into the very stuff that connects you to your own humanity and brings you closer to others.

✨Comfortably ride the oscillation between the need for safety and connection, and the desire for freedom and individuality.

✨Practice intimate relating and communicating in such a way that you can enjoy the ups and downs of your social evolution.

✨Find your voice, activate your sound, and use it.

✨BREATHE more and deeply!

You will not be required to do anything. Everything is an invitation to consider; all activities are optional. Your full consent is the only requirement for your interactions with others.

More About the Belly2Belly Practice:

The core of this practice involves slowing down the sympathetic nervous system until the whole body is relaxed and open to the wisdom of the gut and heart. Conscious use of breath, sound, movement, and touch increase embodiment and attunement to one another. It gently melts away the barriers to love and opens to the possibility of being nurtured by human connection. It is a tribal group practice where everyone practice with everyone. Each person is seen as a mirror and holds a key to unlock a deeper self-acceptance and harmony within yourself. Within the peace and safety of the container being held, individually and collectively, the tribe members can start to heal their relational wounds. At the speed of love we learn how to live from the wisdom of our heart instead of the worry of our minds.

More About Embodied Intimacy:

Very few of us have any formal, or conscious, education in intimacy. We live in a word that teaches us how to read, write, calculate and solve logical problems but we aren’t taught how to love and be loved in a way that fits the unique shape of our heart.

Embodied Intimacy is a partnership founded by Rachel Rickards and Buster Radvik that teaches workshops, seminars and retreats for thousands of people around the world. The work asks participants to show up and reveal themselves authentically — to take risks in vulnerably and let others see you as you are. To hold others in non-judgmental awareness as their mirror to let them see into and reflect you.

The truth of each moment has the potential to set us free by allowing ourselves to be all that we are. Embodied congruence, authenticity and vulnerability has the power to shave off the dead callus of defensiveness and leave us more naked and available to be touched, met, intimate, and to transform and upheaval the way we relate.
