WHAT HAPPENS DURING YOUR RETREAT?

"Meeting the Pleasure Edge"

"My biggest 'aha' from Mystic Rapture was finding out how much pleasure I left on the table. I didn't think of myself as someone who said, well, you know, that's me, and that's just what it is. But apparently I would, because I was afraid and ashamed, I set a rule in our relationship that we would do it twice a week for sure.

And. We would have all night long. 'cause I knew I could do THIS twice a week.' But now I, we, in this time, we experimented with connecting every day and oh my God, I really thought that there's a whole bunch more pleasure in the, the yellow part of the curve. You know, it wasn't just the, not just reaching for the 'amazing one.'

But having something consistent, I was willing to do an experiment and try something in this container where we're all experimenting to find out what is our Pleasure Edge, and it was just one exercise that the Amara put together where she said, 'find your edge and breathe and see if you can rest and go further'.

And that, just thinking about that thing, it slowly penetrated. And seeded and grew and we nourished this and now we're going home. We're continuing."

"We have gone places that we have never gone to"

 "My favorite thing has been the new connection that I have made with my lover. We have gone places that we have never gone to. For, and it's just a piece of my heart. Thank you. The biggest change that I saw in myself was that I was willing to surrender more fully to my partner. And the biggest change that I saw in my partner is. he started feeling some of his inner feelings in a very beautiful way."
