Description
<p>Catherine Hale is a pioneer in creating workshop and event spaces with care and safety at the core. She calls this ‘a culture of care’. </p><p>The sexuality workshop scene is evolving with ongoing revelations of unethical, unprofessional and often dangerous practice. Shining a light on bad practice is essential, and so is defining and promoting best practice.</p><p>We had this conversation to explore how the sexuality workshop scene has changed over the years, the risks of intense, cathartic processes, why safety in the nervous system allows you to go deeper, the importance of integration and how to choose the right facilitator for you and much more. </p><p>Catherine shares:</p><ul><li>How the sexuality workshop scene has changed</li><li>The difference between the gentle and the intense, cathartic approaches to sexual healing in sexuality workshops </li><li>The importance of safety within sexuality workshops</li><li>How workshop spaces can re traumatise people </li><li>The difference between hyper and hypo sexuality and how this plays out in workshop settings </li><li>Why the most sparkly shiny looking workshops may not offer the deepest healing and transformation </li><li>How high intensity workshops match our societal conditioning around sexuality</li><li>What a culture of care is and what that looks like in a workshop setting </li><li>The importance of integration</li><li>How creating safety in the nervous system creates a base for deeper erotic exploration and lasting transformation</li><li>How to establish if a facilitator or a training is right for you</li><li>How a regulated nervous system supports you to be with uncertainty </li></ul><br/><p>Catherine is a qualified trauma coach, sexological bodyworker, and postmenopausal woman who understands what it takes to heal and grow from the inside out.
