The Pleasure Path to Healing: Using Arousal as a Guide
July 30TH, 10AM – 6:00PM,
with an optional, supervised, practice lab 8:00-10:30PM
Building in the series with Dan and Judith, come join us July 30th for the next day long experiential workshop, this time on the connection between Pleasure and Healing. Don’t worry if you didn’t attend the first workshop because these workshops will stand alone. Judith and Dan will map out the bridge that will guide you on the journey that blends the new neuroscience , anatomy of arousal, and brain connections that can directly result in new pathways toward pleasure.
Your physical body, and your psychological freedom are deeply connected to your history and past experiences of your sexuality.
This day long workshop, which includes an optional evening supervised practice, will help you ‘unpack’ some of the things that may be preventing you from your optimal pleasure potential. It will also give you the skills to effectively support and be supported while you discover what hold you back from stepping onto the bridge between pleasure and healing.
This will be a safe, guided container that you will be able to duplicate for yourself, and your partners.
Come ready to be seen, and see one another, as we provide a way expand with grace and vulnerability- toward our exalted human birthright!
The Joys of Pleasure.

After years of study, Dan has a comprehensive knowledge about sexuality, intimacy and relating from a wide variety of disciplines and traditions. He shares his knowledge with private clients and the wider community as a sexuality educator and consultant. He encourages people to gain their own experience and knowledge so they can decide what works best for them and their relationships. He has made it a personal mission to educate people about the healing aspects and energies of human sexuality in a safe and inviting environment. Dan brought his teaching to an international audience and is a sought after speaker. Dan is a Certified Tantra Educator through the Source School of Tantra. In addition, he has completed levels 1-4 of Chuluaqui Quodoushka Spiritual Sexuality training, has studied Taoist sexual healing practices, has attended The Body Electric School, and has become versed in the somatic healing practices taught by Lafayette Morehouse, Orgasmic Providers and OneTaste.

We humans need touch and affection. No Question about it. Consensual, nurturing, non-sexual touch is good for you. Good for your body, mind and spirit. Come enjoy the hugs, the compassion, and the oxytocin (cuddle hormone) high.
Though touch is natural, the skills that make it welcome and enjoyable have to be learned. Hone your skills of communication, boundaries, asking for what you want, and saying ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ with clarity and kindness.
Cuddle Party is led by Vega, a certified Cuddle Party Facilitator. The Facilitator’s job is to guide you into those skills gently and easily, in a fun, safe and light-hearted way. We welcome you and create an atmosphere of respect, and remain available for questions and support.
At a Cuddle Party you gain:
- Clarity and confidence
- Boundary and communication skills
- Comfort, support and encouragement
- The secrets to welcome, relaxed, non-sexual touch
This Cuddle Party begins at 7 pm. Aim to arrive by 6:45 pm to participate. To promote comfort and create safety, the doors will be closed and no one will be allowed to join the Welcome Circle after 7 pm. No exceptions. This ensures everyone is on the same page about rules and expectations.
Cost is tiered and the sooner you sign up the less expensive it is (even though it isn’t very expensive anyway). Pricing starts at $15 and goes as high as $35.
Your advance purchase helps me plan and prepare for appropriate group size. If ticket price is an issue, no worries reach out and contact Vega!
Just contact the Facilitator for options you can get some yummy cuddles, worry free!
