This workshop will lead participants though a guided journey of self-love, both inside and out. We'll practice opportunities and skills for deeper connection, intimacy, and acceptance that attendees can apply at NAB weekend and beyond. We'll examine our relationship to pleasure and notice our habits related to shame, fear and guilt, while exploring the expansive healing power of Eros. We will be modeling and practicing consent and choice, as participants are invited to shed layers that no longer serve. And we'll have a lot of fun in the process. NAB Weekend Home Page

• Come to understand that it’s fully your journey, and it is about your consent and choices: “Your body. Your pleasure. Your choice.”

• Expand your capacity to experience greater pleasure, aliveness, and satisfaction throughout your everyday life as you are guided through the integration of body, heart, mind, and spirit.

• Be led through guided exercises focusing on breathwork, self-pleasure, heart-centered touch, and full-body massage.
