Sensation is Sacred- Free workshop series

The nourishing power of sensuality is a crucial nutrient to our well-being, joy & connection to ourselves. It has been scientifically proven that both sensuality & pleasure have profound effects on our neurobiology.

Yet, the limited, patriarchal and misguided association of sensuality with only sex and sexuality has led us to unconsciously and unknowingly deny ourselves the fundamental experience of being sensual creatures, as a way of living in the world.

Our access to this nutrient has been misdirected and misinformed. In this way, we unconsciously outsource our need for sensuality and pleasure to superficial and temporary things - often inadvertently furthering colonial and capitalist paradigms.

We have been deprived of our birth right: to be in connection with the abundant renewable resource sensuality offers us to maintain the felt, genuine and long lasting experience of peace, connection and intimacy within ourselves.

During this three-part workshop series, Maanee Chrystal, Founder of the Somatic Institute for Women will guide you through an inquiry into how we can expand our notions of sensuality in a healthy way, in order to reclaim our inherently sensual nature.

The act of reclaiming sensuality is a form of activism. By reclaiming sensuality, we are reclaiming pleasure and aliveness, and no longer relying on the control apparatuses of the present.
