What does Yes feel like in your body? How do we find Yes? What can we say Yes to? Yoko Ono created this beautiful conceptual art piece where she invites the audience to climb a ladder. At the top of it you find a dangling magnifying glass. You look around with it and on the ceiling, through the magnifying glass, you see the word: Yes When we engage in healing with curiosity, finding the very act of finding Yes can be playful and delightful. Learn more about an embodied Yes by participating in The Desire Series, a workshop for femme-of-centre people. Dates: May 24, 31, June 7. 615pm to 815pm Facilitated by Prapti and Meg. www.somatictherapytoronto.ca Picture from: http://www.artbouillon.com/2013/07/yoko-ono-yes.html #yokoono #conceptualart #expressiveartworkshop #healing #findingyes #knowingyesterdayexplainswhatgoesontoday #yes #desireseries #sexpositive

For generations, women have been taught that their erotic desire is wrong, non-existent or dangerous. Many of us have grown up with these beliefs ingrained in our bodies and our minds. We can often feel scared, aline and sad when these beliefs arise. This workshop starts from the idea that joy, pleausre, fun and erotic heat in our bodies can be an incredible resource for healing, connection and transformation.
