Cozy Connections Circle Cuddle Party

Experience the healing and joyful practice of Mindful Connection!
This 3-hour retreat offers a dynamic practice in connecting to self and to others through practicing safe, platonic intimacy in a facilitated and free-flowing environment.
Affiliated with Cuddle Party, Inc this Practice follows a tried and true format designed to create a safe space for platonic intimacy with self and - to the extent mutually desired! - with others.

What to Expect:
*We have a specified start time and late arrivals are not permitted. (You are - of course - free to leave at any time!)

• 30-45 minute Welcome Circle to establish a safe container emphasizing common language of consent, embodiment, and

• Balance of our time is spent in mindful connection - individually and collectively.

At all times, the energy stays platonic, mindful, and authentic.
