Gayatri Beegan
Ritual of Release & Renewal and Our Temple Night Opening
What if the capacity to expand into love, joy and ecstasy is only as deep and wide as the capacity to meet the pain, anger and sadness of existence?
Supported by the twin pillars of community and ceremony, this is a space to compost the debris of life and challenging feelings that might hamper being fully present and connected to yourself and others. To see what can flourish from the fertile soil of rightfully expressed feeling. It’s a “shower for the Soul”.
Gayatri is known as an Erotic Mystic * Sacred Initiatrix * Pleasure Activist
Gayatri works and dwells in the intersection between sacred sexuality, spiritual devotion, and Earth activism. Since 2012 she has been a guide for hundreds of people to discover the aliveness of their being through conscious touch and sensual awakening. Known for her refreshingly natural and joyful approach, Gayatri is a full earth-bound goddess. Central to her work is grounding in safety, cultivating sensitivity, and embodying the Sacred.
Deeply moved by the current state of the world, Gayatri offers spaces of community and ceremony to process our collective pain in life-affirming and enlivening ways.

Through her own creation of the movement practice of "Moving Connections", Julia invites us to move and be moved, to relax into our bodies and to explore physical connections and all that arises as we meet without words, in a light and embodied way.
Julia offers a safe and gentle space for us to explore connecting with care and respect for each other, and most importantly with the choice and freedom to choose how and when we are in contact with others and when we feel to be alone.
Emma Buggy
Meeting in Intimacy
Emma is a Relationship coach and facilitator of Compassionate and Authentic Relating (aka Nonviolent Communication). She loves to bring people together and create warm and sensual connections between humans by inviting awareness, presence, curiosity, vulnerability, honesty and play into human relating. Her work invites you to dive into a space of deep listening and honest reflection with yourself and others, cultivating awareness and finding your own language of curiosity that supports you to speak your heart’s and body's desires, needs and vulnerabilities.
Emma facilitates workshops in Nonviolent Communication as a way of building a community of humans who embody a language of life that supports compassion and authenticity to flow between them. She also supports individuals and couples to explore relationship dynamics, inner child work, body empathy and needs based coaching as ways to find clarity and awareness of where we get stuck, so that living from the heart becomes more tangible.
Her workshop will explore coming into intimate connection with yourself before opening up to others and exploring connection, desire and the energy of eros together. Emma will guide you through a series of exercises to support you in noticing your body's desires and reactions to connecting sensually and playfully with yourself and others.

Priya Tourkow
Coming From Love
I'm a psychotherapist working mainly with couples and am passionate about relationships, both with ourselves and others. When we come from a place of love, everything moves and changes, even when it's difficult. Sometimes, there are situations when loving ourselves has to take priority.
In this 90 mins session, I will invite you to explore being with and moving your body with an emphasis on coming from love. Then, to meet others from this place of love within you. How will this enhance the quality of your connections, whether you know or have never met those you encounter?
Letting your heart be your connection tool creates a deep foundation on which to build deep friendships and partnerships.
This could be a moving and loving experience for you.
