Chances are, you weren't raised in a perfect home, with a perfect family, in a perfect community... but don't worry, none of us were.
We weren't taught how to be in conscious, intimate, kind, gentle and loving relationships, and neither were our role models.
We didn't have people to look up to or follow when it came to being in a conscious society, and as a result, we've all suffered.
We've all felt the pain of loneliness, the fear of rejection and the shame of pretending to be someone we're not so we can feel accepted.
We know the feeling of being in a room full of people we've known for most of our lives, yet feeling lonely and disconnected, as if we're in a room full of strangers.
We've all abandoned ourselves, lied to ourselves and others and sometimes even pretended everything was ok...
...when in fact everything was NOT ok.
I imagine that we've all dreamed of a world where we're deeply connected with those around us, and where we feel like we're at home everywhere we go.
I imagine that we've all dreamed of a world where our needs are met, where it's safe to be who we really are, and where we're celebrated, rather than condemned for our differences.
I tell myself that we dream of this world not because it's some imaginary fantasy, but because it's a vision of the future we can all experience if we take action to create it.
And that's why we're hosting our next Conscious Intimacy Facilitator Retreat in Moncton, NB, Canada from September 28 to September 29.
This 2-day retreat is for leaders and facilitators who want to guide humanity to a more conscious, intimate world through their own personal example.
NOTE: YOU DO NOT NEED TO STAY AT THIS RETREAT IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE. You can stay at home, rent an Air BNB or a hotel.
This retreat can help you:
-Learn the skills to navigate conflict so you can create loving
relationships without spending years in coaching or counseling
-Forgive yourself for past mistakes so you can accept the person you are, regardless of how you once behaved
-Face the fear of rejection so you can share your true self with the world, even if you’ve been frozen from fear before
-Discover your deeper mission and purpose so you can live a life that inspires you, without losing yourself in the process
-Feel safe expressing your truth in the world so you can live a life that's authentic to you, even if you've been a people pleaser in the past
-Experience safety in the presence of people you barely know, so you can have greater faith in humanity, despite how dark our history might be
If you have a stubborn ego that keeps getting you stuck in the same kinds of painful, toxic relationships...
...then this retreat is for you.
If you "get" how the universe works, but you just can't seem to steer it in the direction of your deepest dreams and desires...
...then this retreat is for you.
And if you accept that you are the one responsible for creating your life and relationships but you just can't seem to create what you really want...
...then this retreat is most definitely for you.
Throughout the weekend we will play Conscious Intimacy Games, a series of talk and touch based games and exercises designed to teach you to be in the kinds of relationships that society and your parents couldn't teach you to be in.
The talk based games will help you learn to resolve conflict, set your boundaries, express your truth and say no in a compassionate but direct way. They'll help you'll feel confident when you communicate and will offer you strategies for how to deal with difficult conversations.
The touch based games will help you relax and regulate your nervous system in the presence of others so you can feel safer to be your true self. They're intended to help you reprogram and repattern your nervous system so you can take off the mask, stop people pleasing and be yourself.
There is NO nudity, kissing or genital touching at this retreat. The games are sensual but not s*xual, intimate but not romantic.
We will also have Ecstatic Dance, Breathwork, Bodywork, Song Circles and Self-Expression sessions where you'll practice getting out of your head and into your body.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Q. I feel nervous and socially anxious around other people, will this help me?
A. YES! Conscious Intimacy Games are especially designed to help nervous people feel more relaxed.
Q. What if I don't want to play a certain game?
A. We encourage you to listen to your body and play at your own edge. You're always welcome to take a break or simply choose not to play a game.
Q. What if I don't want to play with a certain person?
A. We want you to practice setting your boundaries, and we don't want you playing with anyone you don't want to play with. You can simply say no, ask someone else to play or sit out.
Q. Where did Conscious Intimacy Games come from?
A. Ricky Goodall created Conscious Intimacy Games after 6 years of traveling to Peru, Mexico, Costa Rica and USA to learn a variety of healing practices, including Authentic Relating, Radical Honesty, Nonviolent Communication, Somatic Patterning, Indigenous Shamanism and various forms of Mysticism.
Q. Is this the same as counseling or therapy?
A. While Conscious Intimacy Games have been created with the help of counselors, therapists and psychologists, they're not the same as counseling or therapy. They're something completely different. If you have any type of serious mental or emotional illnesses, we recommend speaking to your doctor before attending.
Q. Is this going to be a triggering event?
A. Some people have felt triggered during a Conscious Intimacy Games event for different reasons. We welcome all types of emotional experiences, so long as it's safe for the others in attendance. At any point you can take a break or ask for support from the facilitator.
Q. Am I allowed to teach Conscious Intimacy Games after this retreat?
A. After this retreat you'll be allowed to host your own events where you can share Conscious Intimacy Games with others. The only "catch" is that you have to call the event something OTHER than "Conscious Intimacy Games."
If you want to host official Conscious Intimacy Games events, more training will be necessary, but this retreat is the first step.
