More Information
The workshop is structured into three parts:
- The space will be open with a collective multi-sensorial meditation to drop in and allow yourself to connect respectfully and authentically. This meditation will set the tone of the practice and will allow the participants to feel safe and grounded.
- Throughout the second segment, we will learn how to connect with a group of strangers without using words (non-verbal communication). Exercises such as:
Contact dance, eye gazing, traditional Tantric partner breath techniques and heart-centred communication exercises.
- The last part will involve one-to-one conversation as in traditional speed dating, but non-conventional questions. The participants will have 3 minutes to share and eventually move on to the next person. Be aware that the content of the questions has deep resonance in people's lives and may help the participant bring to surface traumas and perhaps find opportunities for healing. Some questions may have sexual references and be bold, so we invite our participants to keep an open mind and heart.
We will use tools such as meditation, and mindful touch to encompass wholeness and the idea that we are just one entity.
Like food and water, touch and intimacy are basic human needs.
