The focus is placed on sensuality rather than sexuality. However, with that boundary, erotic energy & arousal are regarded as natural, sacred & welcome in the temple. Disrobing is also welcome to your own personal level of comfort, AND there is no expectation of nudity.

Q: If I am deeply uncomfortable with touch/nudity &/or have extreme sexual trauma I am actively processing, is this a good space for me? A: Probably not. This space is best for those who have a baseline of safety established within them.This temple is best for those who have already done some work around their sexuality and want to continue & are ready to deepen with community. If you have a inner landscape filled with sexual trauma landmines, you will likely be better served to explore some other forms of somatic sexual trauma healing before attending this temple. I offer this type of support and also have a list of practitioners & trainings I can recommend to you. Feel free to reach out. 🙏
