Join us for an evening of Authentic Relating to explore the nourishing medicine of human connection through:

· Consent Based Connection

· Playful Relating Games

· Compassionate Witnessing

· Healing Intimacy

Authentic Relating is for those who are longing to connect with community in a rich & meaningful way by leaning into our vulnerabilities & sharing our deepest truths. Together, we will drop deeply into the power of the present moment, & practice being with what is, with courageous & compassionate curiosity.

This is an opportunity for us to get some of our most core human needs met, including being heard, felt, seen & honored exactly as we are. We intend for this to be a welcoming space for us to deepen the relationships, strengthen the bonds & empower the interconnectivity within our beloved community.

This is a FREE event. Information will be provided on site on how to make an optional donation to Nevada County Pride, which is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
