Join us for a unique and transformative one-day workshop to redefine your approach to consent and intimacy.
You'll discover the social conditioning you’ve endured to ignore your needs and body signals, which can lead to years of overriding or ignoring body signals.
This is an immersive experience with techniques that support nervous system regulation, experiential learning, and deep mindset shifts that you can easily integrate into your interactions with others directly after.
Here’s what you’ll get:
Understanding Consent: Learn how consent is an ongoing dynamic process, of negotiable agreements that change based on context, timing, environment within every relationship
Asking for What You Want: Move away from people pleasing & over-serving as you start to develop trust in yourself & value your worth by voicing what you really want
Knowing Your Needs & Desires: Increase your awareness of your own body signals, emotions, and responses to touch
Self-Compassion: Cultivate self-compassion and reduce self-criticism in the context of intimacy and desire as you speak your needs out loud
How To Say No & Stay Connected: Saying no can be uncomfortable, awkward, edgy & bring fears of impacting the other person. We often say yes when we mean no, leading to resentment and misunderstanding within relationships. Learn a new skill set for navigating any interaction.
Enhanced Relationships: Knowing what you want, prioritising your needs & desires, having the skill set to communicate that. Authentic relating, honesty, courage - conscious connecting.
This workshop is informed by the Wheel of Consent developed by Betty Martin - a pioneering approach that offers a deeply nuanced way to practice consent as an agreement that brings integrity, responsibility, and empowerment into human interaction.
Please note, this workshop is fully clothed - any touch practices are introduced slowly with simple body parts like the hands and arms.
Your guides: Karen Egan is a Somatic Sex Educator & Embodied Consent Coach with over 20 years experience working with people around sexuality and empowerment.
Máire Ní G is the founder of Feminine Sexual Alchemy, a Senior Taoist Instructor and trained in the Wheel of Consent. Máire is also currently training in Mindful Sex Therapy for Couples.
Join us for a day of profound learning and personal growth, and walk away with the skills to connect more consciously and authentically in all areas of your life.
