When women talk about sexuality & How my sexual healing journey began

Have you heard about the "Pussy Dialogues"? Its a space I opened, I guess a year or so ago, for women to talk consciously about our bodies, our cycles, our relationships and our sexuality, without any judgement or advice.

Within the Temple of Sacred Womanhood it's also a space for learning from each other and exploring practices that enhance our radiance, confidence and love of life. 

Each time I open the Pussy Dialogues it's super lively and fun. I get the feedback that it brings so much relief to finally have these conversations. 

It seems to take some emotional charge out of where we might otherwise be feeling frustrated, confused, sad, ashamed or lonely. 

Through sharing and connection we realise we are not alone, there is nothing to be ashamed of, we are all so similar and we are definitely very loveable. Oh my goddess, we realise how absolutely incredible we are as women, in these amazing bodies.

This unlocks joy, innocence, playfulness, sensuality and energy that is innate in all of us. We start to experience and enjoy more of the natural aliveness, juiciness and wisdom in our bodies.

AND all of this it opens us up to being intimate because our biggest fear in intimacy is that when we reveal ourselves fully we will not be loveable. 

Actually, by becoming more intimate with our bodies we discover the sacredness of womanhood, the innocence of sexuality, the magic in life. 

If you respond Yes to any of these questions I invite you to read on below, as I share a little of my personal story and an invitation to our next series of Temple gatherings and Pussy Dialogues.

• Do you feel some shame around your body or any aspect of being a woman?

• Do you find it challenging to open up to true intimacy ?

• Do you feel disconnected from your sensuality and sexuality, or that you separate heart and sexuality?

• Are you lacking radiance, passion for life and energy to follow your dreams?

• Do you hold back or diminish your radiance and sexual energy because you think you are too much?

• Do you struggle to know or express your own desires and set clear boundaries? 

• Are you longing to feel radiant and confident as a mature woman?

  
  Probably many of us can relate to ALL of them!! 

When I start to talk about the Temple of Sacred Womanhood I notice both fear and curiosity in eyes. What on earth could we be doing there?

I hear thoughts like, "That's not for me - I'm not feminine or sexy or sexual enough?" or "I'm too old" or "I'm too scared to be seen in my shame and fear."

Its easy for us to feel challenged by facing aspects of ourselves that are more easily hidden away or suppressed. But they are impacting our lives even more from the shadows. 

Perhaps it can help if I share a little bit of my story and why I feel this work is so important. 

Healing my sexuality - how it began 

2015 was I when I truly began my healing journey with my sexuality. Years of yoga, bodywork and circle had opened me enough to realise that sexual energy was at the core of EVERYTHING, and especially my health and vitality after burnout. It was time to go to the core! 

At that time I felt shame about my blood and my vulva. I felt immature, uneducated and unsatisfied with my sexuality, and embarrassed about it but I didn't know how to navigate through that. I felt unclear about my needs, desires and boundaries and this was creating messiness in relationships. 

I wanted more conscious, mature and healthy relationships - after being more or less single for a decade. I was longing to feel more freedom and pleasure in my sexuality.

I also knew instinctively in my body that this was the portal to a more grounded spirituality, to the wise and wild woman within, and me being able to be in true service in this world, beyond self-doubt, fear and self-absorption. (that's really important)

So..... I started with the 7-day Spiritual Sexual Shamanic Experience led by the International School of Temple Arts (ISTA). That was one hell of a jump into the unknown, and I was terrified, every day!!

What kept me going was my longing for truth, a very safe container, beautiful people all on the same journey, and knowing that, as a facilitator and bodyworker, I couldn't take people where I had not gone myself already!! 

During that training, together with 50 men and women, of all ages and sizes, ethnic origins, religions and sexual orientations, I realised I was not at all alone in feeling so confused, ashamed and hurt in this human body. Everyone had their own story.

Together we met our human fears and emotions. We dove into feeling the pain and healing wounds around relationships with our mothers and fathers, so that finally we could be loving mother and father to ourselves. 

We explored the feminine and masculine within each of us, whether man or woman, in order to heal, awaken, and create an inner marriage of the mature aspects of both and stop projecting immature needs on to others. 

We expressed our personal needs, desires and boundaries, again and again. We celebrated saying "no". We talked about safe sex. And we experienced through beautiful rituals the divine nature in each person.  

It was life changing. I became aware of trauma in my body and at the same time I had my first insights to the sexual shaman dormant inside me. Something in me already knew this work intimately. Of course, it is usually our deepest wounds that become our most important gifts.

Since then I have participated in 20+ trainings on sexuality around the world, assisted on many of them, and am now co-creating with Estera Saraswati, who was a facilitator at that first experience.

My work with Estera is not part of ISTA now. However, this October I am bringing ISTA Level 1 training to Switzerland for the first time ever, with an incredible facilitator team. The training is already fully booked with 50 participants and a waiting list of more than 10, growing every day!

Clearly we are waking up to the essential role of healthy sexuality. I'm delighted. (for other ISTA trainings worldwide check their website)

The Temple of Sacred Womanhood

This is my offering to support us women locally in Suisse Romande. I believe we are ready to go to the core, to awaken through our bodies, to connect heart and sexuality, to birth a new reality here in our community.

And I believe we must start exactly where we are. There are no steps to jump and no rush. Our fears and our protection are there to help us get clear on what we really want.

We start with connecting to the essence of life in our bodies, with caring deeply for each other and our bodies, with respecting and protecting the sacred.
