Educating families and individuals how to connect through safe, consensual and nurturing touch.
The touch work that I teach was developed for connection, but also, and most importantly, consent. This is taught through the child and/or adult’s own body awareness, learning the ways they like to be touched and the ways they do not. This safe learning environment and the sacred space you build allows for one to practice saying yes or no. (intturn)And learning to trust themselves. There are specific sequences taught to engage in safe touch, with each stage of development, including adults.
+++studies show that Connecting Families through(with) touch grow a deeper connection and an over all improved wellness. Educating people how to touch in a safe nurturing way along with the many benefits of touch such as, regulating their nervous system, which in turn regulated all the systems.
I hope that you choose to come along this journey with me, if you have further questions and want to learn more about the Connected Family Project, please contact me.
