This workshop is about connecting to others in a way that feels safe and respectful of ourselves.
Trust allows us to know when it is safe to open up and connect, and when it is wiser to walk away or close off.
Being able to reach out to others while staying centered in our own self brings meaning and vitality to life and relationships.
You will leave knowing how to connect to others in a way that is authentic and respectful of your own experience of trust and opening up.
