How do I prepare for a session?
The only strong request I make is that you arrive for your session freshly showered. If you are unable to shower before arriving, then you are welcome to have one before we make a start. This time will not be charged. It is also a good idea to think about what you want to get out of the session. Before beginning we can discuss setting an intention for your time with me.
What will happen during a session?
After our introductory talk time we will sit together and begin to create connection using various practices, including breathwork and eye-gazing. Please do not worry about this, as I will explain fully how to do these practices before we start. We will then undress and the session will begin. Gentle soothing music will play in the background. If at any time you feel uncomfortable and want to stop the session then this will be respected. Remember, you are in control at all times, and your own boundaries will always be respected.
I am embarrased by my body, is a session of Conscious Loving Touch a good idea for me?
The usual arrangement for a session is for both you and me to be naked. If you are uncomfortable or embarrased by your body then a session of Conscious Loving Touch presents a wonderful opportunity to heal this. Please rest assured that you will be welcomed and honoured by me exactly as you are. As someone who struggled for years with negative body image, I can testify how healing touch can help improve how you feel about your body. Come along and let's celebrate the person that you are.
Is this service only for gay men?
No, not at all. The service offered by Conscious Loving Touch is available for all men regardless of your sexual identity. Perhaps you have never been touched by another man before and would like to experience this. Perhaps you identify as gay or bisexual, and have previous sexual experience with other men. All men are welcome.
Will we have sex?
While a session of Conscious Loving Touch is an intimate and sensual experience, it is not a sexual service, and the session will not lead to sex. It is important that the boundaries between us are clear and respected to make both of us feel safe and relaxed during the session. Boundaries can be discussed in more detail before the session starts.
Can I shower at the end of the session?
Yes you can.
