Frequently Asked Questions:
-
Yes! Awaken is for singles, friends, and couples of all relationship styles. We’ve had many folks attending by themselves who’ve had incredibly rich experiences.
-
You get to decide what your experience is going to be at Awaken. There is no pressure whatsoever to share physical intimacy with others. Awaken is also a beautiful space to explore intimacy with self and nature first, and to simply share emotional intimacy with other participants.
-
No! While nudity is welcome at Awaken, it is by no means expected or required. Many of us simply enjoy feeling the sun our skin, and the ability to swim or sauna nude - just the ability to be wild and free with the elements, rather than being naked for sexual reasons. You are encouraged to wear exactly what feels most comfortable for you.
-
Awaken is an experience that will allow you to participate in intimate and sexual connections to the extent you are comfortable, within the bounds of enthusiastic consent. It is best described as a week-long facilitated sex-positive community.
-
We encourage each participant to move at their own pace, and to always connect with self first. Throughout the week, we provide many practices to support everyone in grounding, regulating their nervous system, and learning how to express, uphold and receive boundaries comfortably. If you have something come up that you’d like support with, you can approach any of our team members at any point. We also have two trauma-informed psychotherapists on our team this year that are available to provide deeper support when required.
