Fostering Intimacy
I’d like to hold a BraveSpace Online session exploring how we foster intimacy in our lives. I’m speaking to intimacy with ourselves, others, and the divine. I believe a key basis of intimacy is being genuine and open to connection, and that being tuned in to our bodies can help us find that state. We can stop performing and be real.
Intimacy can be scary for innumerable reasons, and I think one of the most prominent is shame. In myself I have seen a tendency to project my own shame onto others in the form of expectations I think they have of me. Then I become defensive and closed. We are so programmed to feel that we need to be one way or another—its difficult to trust that our bodies and our selves are worthy of just being. Add to this a genuine desire to be our ‘best’ and it can be very difficult to meet ourselves, others, or any sense of divinity nakedly and honestly. Into-me-see uncovers everything.
There’s no one answer: Each of us has our own path for intimacy and likely even our own definitions. I know I’ve seen amazing intimacy and healing moving together in community. I’d like to invite you to an experiential discussion on the topic—both moving and speaking—in BraveSpace. BraveSpace is an opportunity to take the risk of being vulnerable.
