Join us for the weekend: November 15th-16th 10a-6pm in Saxpahaw, North Carolina for a deep dive into the Wheel of Consent ®

• Would you like to better understand what YES and NO really feels like in your body? 

• Would you like to improve your ability to communicate clearly with friends, lovers, family or co-workers? 

• What would it feel like to ask for what you want & feel totally okay receiving it? 

• What would it be like to say NO with kindness, confidence and self-love? 

• Have you ever wondered if you’re missing something, if you might be able to experience more pleasure in your body and in your life?

To dive into the practices of the Wheel of Consent ® is to step through a gateway into a way of being in the world that is more deeply aligned with who you truly are. 

Come and play, dive in and explore, slow down and become present with what is in this intimate group journey into the foundational somatic practices of the Wheel of Consent ® developed by Dr. Betty Martin. 

• This is a fully clothed workshop that does not involve any sexual touch. 

• Exploring touch individually or with others is an option in this workshop, but never a requirement. 

• This experience is all about the process of CHOOSING not DOING

These practices are simultaneously simple and deeply profound.  They will help you start to notice when you are just “going along” with something & when you have been enduring unwanted touch. As you explore you will start to cultivate a deeper sense of safety in your own nervous system that is independent of outside circumstances & comes from a place of deepening self-wisdom & self-trust. Through these practices you will start to show up with more authenticity in all areas of your life.

Agreements: 

• Confidentiality: anything that is shared in this container stays in this container

• Speaking from your own experience using I language. Not speaking for others or groups.

• Nobody will do anything that they do not want to do. Make sure your taking care of yourself.

• If you are feeling unwell & think you may be contagious please stay home

• Thank you for not wearing strong scents

Join us as we dive into the foundational practices of Dr. Betty Martin’s Wheel of Consent® & improve your communication skills & your somatic awareness.

This workshop includes group discussion, as well well, guided embodied practices to help participants attune to their somatic sense of YES and NO in the body.

We will explore a guided individual practice that helps to awaken the natural sense of pleasure through simple touch. Towards the end of the workshop there will be an opportunity to partner with a practice buddy and explore touch of another persons hand. This is a clothes on workshop & does not involve intimate touch.

We strive to create a safe-enough container for all folx to explore the process of somatic awakening and deeper understanding of consent. All are welcome, join us on your own or with a friend or lover.
