Self-Pleasuring Body and Soul - Part 1
Event Information
Description
...And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
T.S.Eliot (Four quartets)
This is a workshop where you will be exploring your own erotic touch as an invitation to sensation. Self-pleasuring your body and soul is a special way to connect to your authentic self. You and you only, can start this process of embodiment that will breath life in a ll your interactions. A special way women can connect to the spiritual power of their bodies and sexuality. There is no right or wrong, the idea is for you to meet yourself and connect to your life force, without dismissing anything that arises. This is both, a practice for you to enrich your relationship to your own sexual body, and to understand where you are at by listening to the deep yearnings of your soul.
The approach is based in taoist tantra, with the emphasis on psychospiritual process work which adds the necessary depth for this enquiry. In this workskshop you will be encouraged to verify the truth of who you are, wherever you are at. In this introduction to this work you will learn techniques such as engaging with breath, body and voice as well as a variety of touchs and movements to engage your body's capacity for sensation. When you take the time and space to feel, sense, think and share about your body and sexuality and your relationship to both, a deeper and rich understanding unfolds. Sexuality is much bigger than our genitals, it is life force, creativity, and our ability to connect to pleasure in our lives.
Addressing your whole being, this workshop is open to all women with the desire to develop intimacy with themselves, body and soul. This work wil be about creating space for your unique sensual self to emerge, a compassionate process whereby you start to get to grips with who you are, the light and shadow. Beneath the floor boards where light rarely reaches, is where we keep many umcomfortable feelings of shame. This is an invitation for you to look through the cracks on the floor boards, welcome the shadow and let the light in.
Group working and sharing with other women enhances greatly an awareness which slowly but surely unravel parts of yourself that had to be buried for a variety of reasons. Your vulnerability will be held with empathy and acceptance of your process, paving a road where you become more conscious of the vastness of who you are and your unique energy.
Through experiential exercises, you will explore ways to connect to your body, inviting sensuality, slowly, gently and lovingly. This is followed by sharing and processing with the group, the thoughts, feelings, emotions and whatever else arises for you. Working in this way with other women ignites a powerful and insightful process of self-discovery which is fuelled by the energy of the group.
The workshop will be playful and experiential, and an opportunity to start a process of transformation where a more authentic way to relate to yourself and to others is possible therefore increasing the chance for a more sane world. We will also look at the anatomy of sexual arousal for women. There might be, weather allowing, work done outside by the fire. More details about the day will be given upon booking.

Testimonials:
".....often think about you and work I did with you. I'm a different person sexually as a result. I am so much freer. Thank you for your profound work. x " H.G. (London)
The workshop was intense and growthful for me. I experienced your skilful facilitation as warm, rich and very available to any nuances of challenge that I, or any of the participants, may have come across." C.W.
"..The content was varied, challenging and enlightening. It was well graded to start with less challenging activities. This gave the group time to gel and connect with each other. The table work was so gentle and respectful. Tania has a wonderful way of normalising every part of the body so that there was no fear or shame working in a group.
Her presentation skills are to be admired. Each person in the group had their own personal stories and secrets that were held within the room. To manage the dynamics around that and support each person on their own personal journey as well as deliver the content of the workshop was truly impressive. Tania was patient and perceptive to the time required for each member to process each activity. She also bound the support of the whole group for each other. Her ability to present what was required depending on the present situation within the group makes me want to repeat the experience as I know each workshop will have its own special energy and healing generated to accommodate everyone.
I was surprised by the amount of activities presented that were simple in concept but complex in the way the energy changed and freedom of expression expanded and filtered into the core rather than bouncing off the outer shell. Very transforming!
The level of knowledge and experience was clear from the start of the workshop. The practical yet sensitive presentation of the anatomy of the genitalia was perfectly pitched. The explanations of arousal and orgasm and the function of the various structures was comfortable and reassuring.
As the workshop progressed and inhibitions faded a sense of connectedness to my femininity and heart took place. I went into the workshop as a thinking, fact based, somewhat self-absorbed, self-critical and very insular individual. I left the workshop embracing my femininity, feeling with my heart, connected to a group of women who were willing to support me and nurture my inner child and with a sense of inner freedom and personal achievement. The transformation was visible as well as felt.
The wonderful thing about this transformation is that it is permanent as far as I can tell. I approach everything with a new sense of worthiness as a woman and not as a “person”. It’s subtle yet profound in that the edges are softer but stronger, open not closed and the connections are heart felt not brain felt. This change has been noticed by my clients as we become more aligned. My business has exploded with “word of mouth” as I allow my intuition to work instead of my intellect. It’s a truly wonderful thing to be unable to explain why a healing takes place other than to say I “felt” it...... Exciting stuff for the future! Thanks Tania."

“I have enjoyed the broad mix of activities and also
loved the softness of the approach - It felt
gentle, loving and safe.” M.R. (London)
"... I felt more connected to my femininity and thinking about it now that has carried on, I'm wearing my earrings again and more in touch with what I wear. I felt connected to dancing and the amazing meditation. I had always thought our private parts were ugly so there was a real transformation around that. The workshop was full of love and femininity and freedom of expression, I loved the freedom of expression.I am on a journey of liberation, truth and love. I believe Craniosexual workshop has touched and opened my heart. Opening myself up to more beauty and in that I can make a difference when connecting to other women. I loved our heart connection, I'm more connected to the heart. So many things." M.B. (New Zealand)
“I felt in safe hands. We were respected and cared
about, and kept on track without dismissing anything
that was brought up” T.L. (London)
