| Date(s): | July 22 (Sunday) | |
| Time: | 10:00am - 3:00pm | |
| Description: | Are you wondering how to bring the insight of your practice into the challenging world of sex and relating? Are you wrestling with the place of desire? Want to get real about lust, jealousy, obsession and taboo? Join us for a daylong exploration of mindful sex and relating. Engage in honest conversations about sex and desire. Extend your practice of mindfulness into intimate touch - feeling more and staying present when things get hot. Learn to work with the stuff sex stirs up, like jealousy, shame and taboo and experience greater connection in some of the most challenging areas of life. The daylong will consist of dynamic dialog, provocative inquiry, meditation and experiential exercises (clothes on, no explicit sexual touch). Couples and singles welcome. Taught by Trudy Goodman and Justine Dawson ABOUT JUSTINE DAWSON: Justine has practiced Vipassana meditation since 1998 and recently completed training as a teacher under Jack Kornfield. After extended periods of intensive silent retreat, a desire to integrate her practice into the realms of sex and relating brought her to OneTaste, where she has also studied and taught for the past five years. Driven to ignite awareness and connection in all areas of life - Justine focusses on including desire, shadow, power and purpose in daily life practice. | |
