Sacred Sexuality

Title of Event: Sacred Sexuality

Description of Event: 

"Sexuality and Spirituality have been artificially separated from each other for centuries in Western culture. However, intuition, and even neuroscience, suggests that the feeling of the Sacred naturally co-exists with sexuality for many people. And the Internet is teeming with offerings that combine spirituality and sexology, so the market is meeting a very real demand.In the past 100 years or so, body-positive philosophies such as Tantra have captivated and titillated the popular imagination of the US and Europe, but the basic tenets of these spiritual practices are often lost through translation, colonialism, cultural appropriation, and commercialism.Indigenous expressions of sacred sexuality and rites of sexual maturity have been suppressed, often violently, in massive campaigns of forced assimilation.

In this course, we will discuss how white supremacy culture and sex-negative traditional religion have created the hunger for experiences and communities that marry deep meaning with sexuality, the experience of the body, and gender expression.

Participants will be offered an opportunity to deepen their own personal relationship to the Sacred, and its relationship to Sexuality. This exploration is in service to offering our clients greater depth of presence when they ask us about these topics."
