Cuddles & Consent

During Cuddles & Consent you will learn about consent, with activities to practice setting boundaries, identifying and expressing what you really want, and hearing “no” as a gift instead of rejection. After learning these tools and creating a space focused on authentic choice, we move into a free-form cuddle party. Aside from learning healthy communication skills, physical contact plays a vital role in our physical and psychological health. It's been scientifically proven that people who get more hugs have stronger immune systems. Cuddling releases oxytocin which eases stress/anxiety, lowers your heart rate, lowers your blood pressure, and helps you get a better night's sleep. What if there was a safer space where you could feel comfortable getting these hugs and cuddles? On Sunday, August 16th, from 6:30 PM to 10:00 PM, we invite you to join Cuddles & Consent's thirty-fourth workshop.
