Embark on a journey of self-discovery and interpersonal exploration in "The Cuddle Puddle: A Platonic Intimacy Experience." This immersive experience is designed to deepen your understanding of platonic intimacy, boundaries, consent, and somatic modalities in a safe and supportive environment.
Through a combination of interactive exercises, group discussions, and experiential learning, participants will cultivate the skills and awareness necessary for authentic connection without the pressure of romantic expectations.
Facilitated by an experienced somatic practitioner, Jessica Langley, "Cuddle Puddle" offers a space for individuals to explore their relationship with touch, consent, and embodiment. You'll learn practical techniques for communicating boundaries, recognizing and respecting the boundaries of others, and embodying consent in every interaction.
Whether you're seeking to enhance your friendships, improve your communication skills, or simply connect with others on a deeper level, "Cuddle Puddle" provides the tools and insights you need to navigate platonic intimacy with confidence and respect.
The Cuddle Puddle was created: to help heal our community through a collaborative social happening, rooted in values of respect, vulnerability, and mutual care. The importance of touch in our culture has been undervalued, and the lasting effects of social isolation is seen in the mental well-being of our communities.
Together we will foster a warm, inviting, and healing environment for us to share in this unique event. Join us and embark on a transformative journey toward more meaningful and fulfilling connections.
