Have you ever felt disconnected from your own body? Does sexuality seem elusive or too taboo to be discussed and embraced? Join Jodi Epstein and Katie Jennings for a women’s workshop that combines movement and breathing to connect with the pelvic floor, and discussion to explore female sexuality.*
*Within this workshop we will discuss sexual desire, arousal, and pleasure through an educational lens. This is not meant to be therapy or a coaching session, rather it is information sharing that offers opportunities for self-reflection. If you have questions about this workshop or are unsure if it's for you, feel free to email Jodi at practicewithjodi@gmail.com.
The first hour will be a movement practice led by Jodi and the second hour will be an education lesson led by Katie. We will:
Discover stretches and relaxation techniques that help create a pelvic floor connection.
Explore spinal and hip movements to deepen body awareness and release tension.
Learn about how the brain registers desire and arousal while acknowledging our unique experiences.
Engage in self-reflection exercises to help maximize sexual well-being, learning about what turns us on, what turns us off, and why the body might not always respond as expected in both scenarios.
Each component of this workshop involves contemplative and mindfulness exercises. It is through these practices that we can find more confidence and comfort with our bodies and sexuality. Please bring a notepad or journal and a pen.
