Pleasure is a feeling of happy satisfaction or enjoyment...pleasure could be as simple as listening to the birds call outside your window, stopping and smelling flowers along your walk, cooking, singing, dancing, and, what most of our society links the word "pleasure" to, sensuality and sexuality practices. All forms of pleasure are important to our well-being as humans. Our sensuality and sexuality are certainly some of the most ignored and repressed of the simple (and often transformative, life-affirming) pleasures in life. Valentin will guide us through a mindful, intentional self-pleasure practice. We'll begin with a brief discussion about the importance of a self-pleasuring practice, what it means from different perspectives, and the benefits from this form of self-care -including the potential for healing and perhaps our bodies' untapped potential. This will be followed by a short meditation to tap into our blocks and beliefs surrounding self-pleasure, flowing into further education on how to go about creating this kind of ritual in one's life, and the possibilities for play (setting, modalities of touch, full-body activation, etc)... The intention is to leave feeling more grounded in the possibilities of taking better care of ourselves, and to treat ourselves with greater love, coming from a more informed space. Suggested: -Comfortable space with privacy -Optional: Items with which to explore some sensation play: Something soft (feather, cloth, stuffed animal, etc), Something scratchy (fingernails, comb/hair brush, scalp scratcher, fork), Oil (coconut, olive oil are best for the skin) or body lotion.
