Embodiment + attunement…
Conscious touch…
Deeper pleasure…
Welcome to Mindful Sex Monthly, our monthly free workshop series focused on midlife intimacies, conscious relating, and deep connection. In November, we’re bringing all our holistic and therapeutic wisdom to guide couples into partnerships that deepen, expand, and awaken over time: your Tantric partnership.
Together, we’ll explore what keeps a long-term partnership erotically alive: not performance or a to-do list of sexual positions, but Tantric tools that invite connection to self, to your partner, and to something bigger than either of you. We’ll move through presence, honest communication, and the ongoing practice of conscious relating, treating sexual energy and pleasure not as a destination, but as a practice.
In this workshop, we’ll explore:
- The four pillars of conscious relating: presence, slowness, attention, and intention, and how they show up (or quietly disappear) in a long-term partnership
- Conscious relating as an ongoing practice, not a one-time fix
- A communication practice for desire and connection
- Two guided practices from our popular Tantric workshops that help you drop into a closer connection
- This class is open to everyone: single or partnered, and obvs, we’re queer/kink/trans/polyam/ENM friendly + positive 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
