🌙 Tantra Touch Temple Night Schedule
Step into the Tantra Touch Temple, a sacred space for deep somatic exploration, presence, and conscious touch. Unlike common perceptions of Tantra, this temple is not solely about sexuality—it is a somatic journey into connection, embodiment, and the profound healing power of touch.
🌹 Guided Program: Cultivating Presence & Connection: 6:30 PM – 10:00 PM (Doors close 7:00 PM sharp).
The first two hours of the temple are a carefully guided experience designed to bring you into a state of inner fullness, nervous system regulation, and deep self-awareness. Through boundary exercises, somatic practices, and meditation, we slow down, attune to our bodies, and cultivate a state of balance and receptivity.
From this place of wholeness, we explore different layers of touch:
- Remedial Touch – Therapeutic, supportive touch such as massage, learning to communicate our needs and truly receive.
- Nurturing Touch – Soothing the nervous system, offering comfort, safety, and a deep sense of connection.
- Sensual Touch – Awakening joy, bliss, and life force energy within the body, whether through self-touch or shared experiences with others.
This is a guided experiment in human connection—an invitation to explore how touch affects us when it is conscious, safe, and attuned to our personal boundaries.
🌹 Free Play: Honoring Your Individual Needs: 10:00 PM – 11:45 PM
Following the structured exploration, we transition into a supported Free Play space. Here, participants are invited to follow their own desires, whether that means receiving a cuddle, a nurturing massage, or engaging in a deeper sensual connection. While sexuality is not the focus of the guided program, the space is open for those who wish to explore their sensuality in a conscious and consensual way.
A spacious time to integrate, move freely, and deepen your experience.
Follow your curiosity in a safe and supportive environment that allows for releasing blockages and inviting intuition.
💆♀️ Relax & Rejuvenate: 11:45 PM - MIDNIGHT
Enjoy the internal Temple space for quiet reflection or gentle connection.
🌙 Closing Ceremony & Group Pack-Up: MIDNIGHT
We end with a beautiful closing ritual, bringing the group together in shared presence, reflection, and gratitude.
Gather as a community to close the space with intention, gratitude & cuddle puddles.
