We live in a f*cked up society and don’t even notice. Like fish we swim thought the water without noticing the water. We f*ck ourselves over believing that if we can become perfect all will be well. We f*ck others over to have our needs met. We f*ck around looking for connection. We f*ck the planet up. We are all f*cked up but it is possible to start the UNf*cking process.
This 6 week workshop will help you create safety in your nervous system so that you can become your true self and discover the beauty of you within. We start the UNf*cking, step by step undoing the conditioning that has brought you to who you are today. No matter what you have experienced you are not a bad person, we all develop unconscious survival strategies in order to feel accepted and have our needs met, e.g. lying, pleasing, over giving, going along, saying yes when you actually feel a no, enduring, etc.
Our cultures don’t truly understand safety and don’t focus on it. Instead, they tend to focus on threats and danger. The absence of a threat isn’t the same experience as relaxing and thriving in safety. Our body need cues of safety. We need refuge, and our nervous systems are wired to get that need met through social engagement. Our bodies are not machines that need to be fixed, they are feeling organisms that need to feel safe in order to heal themselves.
This course offers you ways to learn engagement and communication tools to start breaking old patterns, and learn how to respond to the world in authentic ways. It helps you to establish the organic balance between desire and boundaries. You learn how to ask for what you really want, and how to go into an authentic action for your own benefit while respecting the limits of others.
The core embodiment of Somatic Consent is making empowered choices and communicating consent.
These foundational teachings will guide you into the base of Somatic Consent, where the main focus will be to activate the ability to feel yourself, improve the quality of your touch, explore consensual touch, and learn how to separate doing from giving and discover deeper layers of receiving.
This workshop includes many interactive games and exercises offered to help you learn in an easy, playful, and conscious way. After the course you can take these into your personal or professional life. No prior experience is necessary for this workshop. Both beginners and professionals are welcome, as we can always find new levels of awareness.

Participating in this training is creating the foundational groundwork for an empowering journey into yourself and your personal integrity. It helps you to remember that your pleasure and your truth is your birthright.
This training invites a new paradigm in personal choice and ways of authentic relating that will keep deepening as you practice your embodiment of it. As we learn to take radical responsibility for ourselves and what we take action to create in our lives and our relationships, then we can also remember we can have choice in and impact in what we choose to participate in, what we choose to go along with, and what we choose to create in the world at large.
