PART 1 : THE EROTIC SHADOW

OVERVIEW

Our shadow is our murky underworld;
the part of ourselves we often want avoid, to escape, because it’s just so painful, uncomfortable.The part we often don’t dare to speak of, because it so often feels nobody else does.Our shadow is the part of ourselves we often don’t even know exists as many of us live in a culture of “functional coping” in which we have learned to numb everything.

As it remains unexplored, it can affect every area of our lives.

Beyond simply “resolving it” shadow work can allow us to access hidden gems that can transform our lives by awakening our truth.
The shadow can be a tool to tune into our highest creative and transformative force, our gateway to being who we were meant to be in this world.
Sexuality and Eros is also a particularly fertile terrain for this exploration; often involving our greatest fantasies our peak sexual experiences and our darkest shame.

You will be invited to explore the different aspects of your erotic landscape; desires, fantasies, fears, shame…
You will learn techniques that harness the power of the energetic orgasm to awaken the healing medicine that lies within us, and remember that…we are held, supported and nourished in every moment.

What is a Dive?
A deep and rich guided meditative process of energy work and spontaneous movement.
