Touching the Heart of Stillness

June 25-July 1

With Michael Cohen and Steve Schwartzberg

Combining Body Electric's tradition of honoring erotic wisdom with ancient meditation and silence teachings, this retreat's goal is to begin and/or deepen a meditation practice, and within this context, to explore subtle and rich aspects of erotic pleasure and touch. It's time to slow down and get to know the body, mind, and heart in fresh ways. Included are extended periods of Buddhism's “noble silence” -- time to delve into your inner life, tasting the benefits and mystery of shared silence.

In a safe and nurturing setting different forms of erotic massage and touch are included. Mornings and evenings have instruction in various forms of meditation and stillness practices, as well as yoga. Afternoon sessions focus on erotic massage and intentional touch.

Participants should be familiar with, or interested in developing, a meditative practice. No experience needed. Beginners and experienced meditators will find this a rare opportunity to explore stillness, contemplation, and touch in a brotherhood of open-hearted, loving men.

The workshop begins with dinner on Monday evening and ends with lunch on Sunday.
