Sexuality and Intra-psychic Consent: The Intersection of Depth Psychology and Neurobiology

  • Jane Clapp Movement 18 Hook Avenue Toronto, ON, M6P 1T4 Canada (map)

SOLD OUT

The conversation of consent is most often focused on ‘the other’ outside of our bodies and psyche yet we are often not guided into understanding the many emotional parts we carry within ourselves that might be in conflict with one another limiting our capacity to truly engage in consent with the other.

Space is limited to 20 live participants hosted in a Zoom meeting format. Live participation is required due to the sensitive nature of the content (cameras and mics off are ok) and a recording WILL NOT be provided. This is to create a safer and more contained space for everyone.

Saturday, February 5th 12-3 pm EST

Cost $149 Canadian (plus applicable taxes) per participant.

After payment is received, you will receive notification of registration within 24 hours.

Through a Jungian Somatics lens harnessing the tools of intuitive movement, active imagination and creative expression, Jane will bring the concept of consent to your inner psychic experience AKA intra-psychically, to explore the parts of you in agreement or disagreement with sharing your body and most intimate Self with others.

  • Is our sexual expression coming from a complex or the Self?

  • How does attachment trauma or cumulative relational trauma activate younger parts (or in Jungian terminology, complexes) that need to be worked with and explored in order for us to be fully present in relation with others?

  • When we consent to sexual experiences with other people, how do we make space to be aware of parts of our psyche that might be in conflict?

  • Are we engaging in sexual relationships from a fully conscious or dissociative place?

  • When we are sexually engaged with another, how do we notice if our social engagement system is online or if we have moved into dysregulation or persona?

  • What shadow parts might be driving our yes or our nos?
