Let's talk about: Death, Sex & Wealth

Come join us for a weekend of thought-provoking exploration into three topics that have fascinated and unsettled humanity for centuries.

We’ll gather in Stoke Newington Church Street to dive into the deep and often taboo subjects of death, sex and wealth.

This isn’t a lecture or debate. It’s a carefully held space for conversation, embodiment and personal reflection. Together, we’ll explore what we’ve been taught to avoid and discover what becomes possible when we face these truths openly.

Whether you arrive with curiosity, skepticism or a longing for honest dialogue, this event is for you. Expect a mix of group discussions, journaling prompts, somatic practices and spacious time for integration.

You’ll leave with:

• New perspectives on life’s biggest taboos
• A deeper connection to yourself and others
• Communication tools for conflict resolution
• A sense of clarity, freedom and possibility
• A feeling of having gently taken part in 16hrs 45 minutes of good therapyWhat to expect

Over two and a half days, we’ll move through:

Friday Evening – Arrival & Opening

Casual meet and gratitude, grounding and setting intentions together.

Saturday Morning: Death

Facing mortality, grief and endings. Befriending death as a teacher rather than a fear.

Saturday Afternoon: Sex

Unravelling shame, desire and conditioning. Exploring the shadow and light of pleasure and power.

Sunday Morning: Wealth

Interrogating our stories about money, scarcity and greed. Reframing wealth as value, freedom and relational capital.

Closing Circle – Weaving the three threads together and leaving with clarity, lightness and personal commitments.

How we’ll work

• Embodied practices (breath and gentle movement, somatic inquiry)
• Journaling and reflection prompts
• Small-group dialogues and whole-circle conversations
• Space for integration, rest, and choice

This is a unique opportunity to engage in stimulating dialogue and embodied practice, surrounded by like-minded people who are ready to get real and be more healthily human.

It is a chance to broaden your perspective, connect deeply and step into conversations that actually matter because they might just change the tragjectory of your life for the better...This is not about fixing yourself.

It’s about meeting yourself more honestly.
