Deepening into the power of our subtle sexuality as a divine pathway to authentic liberation.

Most of us will feel deeply repressed or reckless on our way to becoming uncaged, liberated sexual creatures. Beyond the distortions of sexuality today, the erotic current is meant to make you one with wisdom and power moving through all of creation. It is meant to set us free, bring us closer to our authentic self, and make us penetrable by the divine.

Our sexuality is our deepest source of power, clarity, and liberation AND it is a power we are often not trained to deal with. We often play this out in messy, confusing ways without really knowing what we’re doing.

 

 You’re here because you call bullshit on 

  • Commodification and control of female sexuality
  • Misuse of female sexual power to manipulate and collude
  • Continuous attempts to name and cage sexual expression (like linear progression through the “bases” or rigid boundaries that define respectability)

 

And because you feel called to

  • Decolonize eroticism to shed conditioning that keeps you silent
  • Work with the erotic energy as a way to discern and keep you safe
  • Rescue yourself from a world that constantly bombards us with distorted sexuality
  • Embody refined, limitless, and un-fuck-with-able erotic expression
  • Ignite a new sexual transformation that goes deeper than “how to be a good lover”
  • Shed the “should’s” in what you feel, lights you up, and turns you on
  • Clear thoughts, patterns, and energetics from past lovers to let healthier love in

 

 

Open to 10 women identifying humans.
