Understanding & Embracing Your Erotic Self
Understanding & Embracing Your Erotic Self
Saturday, December 4, 10:00 am -1:00 am PST
S-E-X can bring incredible pleasure, intimacy and connection to our lives -- and it can also be awkward, mechanical, terrifying, painful, triggering or disappointing. What makes the difference? And how can we have much more fulfillment, and much less frustration?
Sex matters. Your erotic life matters. But for lesbians and queer women, it has been almost impossible to find frank, intelligent, compassionate sex education that speaks to our experiences and needs.
That's why Conscious Girlfriend's Lesbian Bed Life programs exist!
Here's just some of what we'll cover in Understanding & Embracing Your Erotic Self on Saturday, December 4:
-- How to "de-shamify" and honor your erotic nature and overcome or work with the challenges imposed by homophobia, sexual shaming and trauma.
-- How to understand the role of sexual fantasies, and how they can serve you not only in sexual turn-on, but also in healing.
-- Why deep sexual satisfaction has little to do with "who does what to whom," specific techniques, and even orgasm -- and what research shows really does make for great sex.
-- The five most common turn-on templates, and how and why knowing your own can give you a powerful route to arousal and fulfilling sex.
-- How knowledge of the templates can help crack the code of sexual incompatibility, as well as help you be an amazing lover to others.
-- What really causes many cases of "lesbian bed death," and what the remedies are.
Why We're Doing This
I personally know the deep pain of having sexual desire and longing, but feeling sexually unfulfilled and even hopeless about ever getting my needs met.
That frustration led me to three years of intensive training at the Somatica Institute, and becoming certified as an experiential sex and intimacy coach in the Somatica Method. In the process, I learned soooo much about sex and about myself as a sexual being. Yet every single day, I also keep learning more!
I see sex as one of the most powerful aspects of being human - a minefield of joy and trauma and shame and the possibility of profound connection and healing.
And I see teaching and learning about lesbian sex, in particular, as a radically self-affirming act for our community.
That's why I'm so passionate about making high-quality, affirming, open-minded sexual education and help available to self-identified women who love women, or want to. Non-binary folx are welcome, too.
Life and relationships really do get easier with Conscious Girlfriend skills.

Why Join Us?
Because Your Heart is Worth It.
Lesbians and queer women are courageous and powerful,
and relationships between women
can be the very best relationships on the planet.
You deserve happy, healthy love --
and you can have it!
But because two women can bond so deeply and quickly,
and because we often lack the know-how to date
in smart-for-our-heart ways,
our relationships can also go bad fast --
if you don't choose a partner wisely,
or don't have the skill, compassion and self-awareness
to navigate conflicts when they arise.
The Conscious Girlfriend Academy exists to support
women who value growth, and are willing to take action
to learn how to be the right partner, as well as find her.
If that sounds like you, we'll see you in class!
XOXOXO
