WHOLE SELVES, WHOLE SEXUALITY
A TRAINING GROUND FOR BUILDING INTIMATE RELATIONSHIPS:
 A 12 week group for women
DATES: January 14 - March 31, 2008
TIME: 6:30pm - 8:30pm
WHEN: 12 Mondays
WHERE: Civic Center area, SF
WHO: 6 - 8 women
FEES: $40 per week
The relationship between the mind and the body is the foundation of sexuality, but
developing that connection can be challenging for many reasons. Often feeling
shut down sexually is symptomatic of other concerns not being expressed. Feeling
safe and in touch with our bodies allows us to take risks, honestly admit to ourselves
and others what we need, as well as begin and end relationships with more confidence.
Through participation
in discussion and experiential exercises (originating out of
Aikido and energy work), learn embodiment skills that support
a deeper connection to your sexuality, intuition and power. This
is a process-oriented therapy group. New members are
rotated in every 12 weeks.

Our sexuality has
more to do with who we are in our relationships than our body
parts and what we do with them. It is the "thinking,
feeling, growing, changing, decision-making, relationship-building
person" (Deborah Roffman) who is attached to these parts.
Many of us have
a limited relationship to our whole sexuality, because religion,
culture or sexually traumatic experiences tell us our body
is unsafe and uncomfortable to be in. Often feeling shut down
sexually is symptomatic of other concerns or stressors not
being expressed.
Feeling safe and
in touch with our bodies allows us to take risks, honestly
admit to ourselves and others what we need, end and begin
relationships and move towards the life we want.
WHOLE SELVES,
WHOLE SEXUALITY: AN EMBODIED APPROACH TO INTIMACY
Location: SF-Good Vibrations, Valencia store
Tuesday, February 15, 8-10 pm
$25 or $40/pair
The relationship
between the mind and the body is the
foundation of sexuality, but developing that
connection can be a challenge for many different
reasons. Charna Cassell, a former Good Vibrations
staff member and a Certified Master Somatic
Practitioner, can help you learn the embodiment skills
that support a deeper connection to your sexuality.
You'll learn how to deepen your ability to connect
with your intuition and power, which can help you to
take risks and move toward the whole sexuality that
you really want. Through participation in discussion
and experiential exercises you'll leave with more
awareness of your own sensations, what they are
telling you and how it feels to ask for what you want
(and get it). This class is open to couples and
individuals.
