Cuddle Club
meets the 1st Thursday, Monthly
|
Check-In
After you arrive and
check in you're directed to a changing area where you don your
favorite pajamas. Wear clothes that are lose and comfortable
so you can relax and enjoy yourself.
Welcome Circle
 |
The evening begins with a Welcome Circle where you and the others
introduce yourselves, tell us a bit about you and explain what
brought you to the group. You listen to the others and tune
them in as we go around the circle, learn who they are and what
led them to this evening. You notice attractions and
repulsions, see where you're drawn and note those with whom
you'd like to chat or cuddle. We encourage you to meet
everyone in the course of the evening for all have messages for
your soul or you wouldn't have shown up to be together in the
first place.
|
Your Cuddle Club Party hosts, Sasha and Kira and
other guest facilitators explain the Cuddle Club
philiosophy and rules. They lovingly prepare you for an evening of
friendship and fun.
Ice-Breaker
Exercises
|
We begin with mixer and ice-breaker exercises designed to help
you meet everyone, get to know them a bit, relax and feel grounded
and connected. We play boundary establishing games like
"Yes, No, More, Less". You learn how to state your needs and
wishes, negotiate and make requests while you address the needs
and invitations of others. You create connections according
to your comfort levels and desires. At first you may
chose to simply talk. Here you are free to be who you are.
There's no requirements to meet anyone's expectations.
|
 |
Cuddling and
Connecting
 |
Taking into
consideration the energy of the group and based on consensus, we
may begin the evening with directed cuddle circles or shoulder or foot
massages. After some initial exercises, the rest of the evening's
non-directed. Relax and go with the flow. With rules
and boundaries firmly established and set in place, it's time to
get out of your head and into your senses, enjoy giving and
receiving without fear or repercussions.
|
|
Socialize, laugh,
cuddle and benefit from a cozy environment enhanced by a
charming mix of recorded (or sometimes live) music played at
a volume that enhances conversation. Some cuddle in groups
while others enjoy one-on-one time. Touch feet to feet or
enjoy embracing head to toe. Hug, rub, pat, scratch,
massage, caress, spoon. It's all up to you.
|
 |
Closing Circle
 |
We usually end in a
puppy pile then gather in a closing Circle to share our thoughts
and feelings. By this point many participants are often in a
state of cuddle intoxication. They feel connected to the
group, experience unity consciousness, a state unimagined at the
beginning of the group. But after long hugs and goodbyes,
exchanging cards, numbers, emails and names, we break ourselves
apart from one another and bid our farewells. |
