Somatic Consent teaches an approach which builds clarity and connection to self—as well as bonding in relationship with others.
 
You'll be expertly guided to regain your full capacity to experience sensation and feeling—so that you re-learn to perceive through the ‘language’ of your own body.  

This dramatically elevates your ability to be and act as your natural, genuine self—with autonomy and integrity. It supports your body's resilience to stress, promotes emotional intelligence and compassion, and offers an enormous neurological improvement in coping with the ups and downs of life.
 
Somatic Consent enables people to develop their authentic voice—rooted in inner wisdom and guided by their desire to recognise and embody their own inner truth, wishes and needs. This creates incredible space for new uplifting experiences.  
Somatic Consent supports all people in developing the awareness to see life as a way of expressing oneself and to feel safe and at home in their experience of it.
 
The end result is living and working according to your own ideals while knowing that you always have a choice, are flexible, adaptable and free.  
Together, we practice spiritual, cultural, social and ecological renewal and create forward-looking narratives for a new relationship to ourselves, others and the environment and society in which we live.

Values of Somatic Consent  

Somatic Consent is built on the foundation of the following values. We try to maintain these values in every interaction, no matter how big or small, easily detectable and seen or more obscure.
 
Courage
We create a culture in which we feel safe to explore and express what is alive for us. We encourage each other to experience the great depth and breadth of human emotions and expressions—while taking care of individual and group-oriented needs.

Embodiment
The body is a powerful tool to nurture the seeds of growth within us. If we give priority to our body’s wisdom, we can live our values safely and with integrity.

Responsibility and Consent
We are all experts in ourselves and responsible for our thoughts, feelings and needs. We show radical love and respect by asking someone for their readiness to fulfil our desire to connect. We practice staying connected and appreciate the answer despite whether it's a yes or no.  
Radical Imagination We know that human imagination fills our landscape with possibility and is a key element in maintaining a world that serves all. Radical imagination requires; 1. the courage and intelligence to recognise what is possible to change 2. the ability to set new action and collaboration in motion, in order to drive social change forward.  

Collective growth
We utilise intergenerational knowledge, share experience and insight. We strengthen connection to self and others while celebrating our differences. Through this we free ourselves from the feeling of separation and division. We move instead towards a system of life without hierarchical structure—where individual sovereign rights, choice and flexibility is encouraged, while maintaining what is most efficient for the whole.  

Community
We work and regulate ourselves together. By both understanding and reflecting on light and shadow aspects of being and celebrating diversity—we remember how we can thrive together. We prioritise interpersonal well-being, in order to build resilient networks that strengthen collective consciousness. In this way we explore a new form of society in which each individual can align themself with what resonates within.
