ENERGETIC SEX
FEB. 22ND | 1-3pm | penha de frança, lisbon | with SIMON
WHAT IS ENERGETIC SEX?
Energetic Sex explores the electrical, energetical side to our sexuality. You may have felt it before: that spark of aliveness inside you, that jolt of lightning when you’re getting turned on, that heightened frequency when your erotic energy is flowing. That’s what we’re talking about. It’s real. It’s in your body. And it’s wonderful!
Or maybe you’re not so familiar with these sensations. That is way more common than not. No one really teaches us this stuff. You might be more used to sex being a friction-based, or purely contact-related experience. Or maybe you feel disconnected from your sexuality. No matter your past experience or reference points, you’re welcome here.
why it matters
- why it matters -
why it matters - why it matters -
When we reconnect with our erotic energy as a living current rather than something purely mechanical, sex becomes more spacious, conscious, delicious. It allows pleasure to expand beyond the genitals, deepen intimacy and increase presence as well as sensitivity.
Energetic Sex opens a doorway to another layer of sexual experience, one that has been explored for thousands of years in mystical and Tantric traditions. Many of us already practice it without necessarily being aware.
Understanding your energetic sexuality can help you develop greater awareness of your own arousal patterns, regulate intensity rather than being overwhelmed or disconnected, nourish your body deeper than the physical (great for when your body is actually depleted).
This work reminds us that our bodies are not just matter, but also energy and both are deeply sexy (you‘ll know).
WHAT WE DO HERE.
In this workshop, we’ll uncover the other-worldly current of life that we are so lucky to have come through our bodies.
You’ll experience how to notice it in your body. How to kick it off, how to share it with others if you want to, and how to regulate it.
The workshop will explore the following:
Activating erotic energy in your whole body
Connecting breath to sexual energy
Making love with the third eye, heart, and base energy centers
Down-regulating your energy
It’s a beginner’s workshop, but all people, no matter your gender or sexual orientation, will benefit from it.
You can come with a partner, a friend, or by yourself. If you come with a partner, you can participate only with one another.
