Short Presentation: Erotic Freedom Trance Movement*

Many tantrics believe that the path to spiritual attainment and liberation can be achieved through a thoroughly sensuous appreciation of life. In this gathering with Rev. Goddess we will explore sensuous play while wearing a blindfold to achieve the deepening needed to altered states of consciousness. This altered state of consciousness is a pathway of releasing blocks and embracing the Divine/your Freedom Spirit.

Music, chanting, song/chants. sensual to erotic movement connecting heart and sex center will play a role in our altered state of being.

Not seeing and not knowing what will happen next while wearing your blindfold opens you to a deep level of awareness and trust that will open you to the freedom that we all possess.

More than half of this gathering will be participated blindfolded. We will guide our erotic spirits on a deepening expedition of our soul to free our ability to love fully in our Holy Bodies in this life.

*Please bring a towel and a blindfold.
