Yoga for Sexual Wellness & Intimacy

​Our practice together will be very specific to what is needed,
​from day to day, as well as from moment to moment.
​

​Intentions may include resting, mindfulness, sensate focus, healing, releasing, processing, opening, strengthening, expanding...
​or simply playful exploration!

​As we begin our exploration together, all postures and practices are approached from a perspective of "Invitation" and "Inquiry". Initially, I will gently guide clients through yoga-based mindfulness experiences of him or herself in the present moment. And whatever happens in the present moment - physically, emotionally, intellectually and spiritually - finds richness in relationship to the bigger picture of how one is being/expressing in the world in daily life - work, play, family and relationships. 

The practice of yoga utilizes movement to allow for bringing into awareness, shifting, and/or removing that which does not serve in order to make space for growth and vitality. This is a powerful time to meet your body again in a new way. If it has been a while since you have paid yourself attention, or if you have gone through some life changing events, and you are ready to feel safe in your body again; private Embodiment Sessions can help you to gain confidence, to better understand your emotional holding patterns, and to discover your pain free range of movement. (I work with men, women and couples)

Tap Into Your Body as a Source of Awareness - and Tap Into Body Wisdom

Neuroscience explains it as "experience-based attentional plasticity". When we practice focusing our attention on breath and internal bodily sensations, it changes our brain, strengthening the experiential attention neural pathway. Perceptual experiences are heightened. And, it gets easier to access these pathways and we integrate attention to internal experience into daily life.
​And this can absolutely integrate into our expression of sexual health, wholeness and vitality!
