November Snugglefest and Communication Workshop

Experience a snugglefest! Come join us for a 3-hour event focusing on communication and non-sexual touch. Meet other people in the community in a welcoming, authentic, and caring environment while you learn and practice connection and communication skills. What is a snugglefest? A snugglefest is a safe space to engage in non-sexual touch while practicing open communication and maintaining personal boundaries. It is a place to learn and practice communicating around touch and asking for what we want, being vulnerable with our wants and needs, honoring our own emotions, experiences, and boundaries, and respecting those of others. It is also a place we can develop a new way of seeing rejection as an honoring of someone else’s desires and boundaries. You can come to the snugglefest to meet new people, to have a great conversation, or just to cuddle!
