Conscious Intimacy Games
Details
Real connection, practised with real humans. ๐ฟ
๐๏ธ Two quick steps to join us and help spread the word!
1. Secure your ticket on Luma:
https://luma.com/tonge8c0
Luma is the official registration platform, so please register there to confirm your place.
2. RSVP on Meetup too!
If you're planning to come, please also RSVP here on Meetup. Seeing familiar faces and growing interest encourages others to join, helps build our community, and makes it easier for everyone to see who's coming.
Important: Your Luma registration secures your spot. A Meetup RSVP alone does not reserve a place.
Hosted by Apollo, a fellow Toronto vegan of almost 15 years (and vegetarian for over 30 years before that), trained and mentored directly by CIG founder Ricky Goodhall.
Conscious Intimacy Games has been running globally for years across Canada, the US, Mexico, Costa Rica, and beyond. Toronto now has its own monthly residency, and this is your invitation to be part of it.
๐ In a city this fast, interactions can stay on the surface.
We say "I'm fine" when we are not. We nod along when we actually disagree. We swallow our truth to keep the peace.
This is a space where depth, warmth, and real connection are not only possible but practised. You will practise speaking your truth without apology, listening without fixing, and responding in a way that actually lands.
๐ค You'll also experience co-regulation
Simply being present with another nervous system can calm your own. It's a skill you can take into every relationship in your life.
โจ The structure is part of the medicine
Each game is gently timed, which keeps the mind from overthinking and drops you into a flow of connection. We move from verbal connection into non-verbal, touch-based presence.
๐ซ There is no nudity, no kissing, and no genital touching. This is not a dating event or a singles mixer. It is a space to practise being human together.
๐ฅ No partner needed
Most people come alone, and that's how it's meant to be experienced. If you bring someone, you're welcome to stay together for every game.
๐ฏ๏ธ The Flow of the Night
4:55 to 5:30 PM: Arrival and connection
5:30 PM: Doors close. No entry after this time, no exceptions.
5:30 to 6:30 PM: The Talk Phase (honesty, truth, boundaries, authentic communication)
6:30 to 6:40 PM: Break, then we move into Noble Silence
6:40 to 8:00 PM: The Touch Phase (non-verbal, consensual, non-sexual games for nervous system regulation)
8:00 to 8:30 PM: Integration and gentle social time
