EMBODIED EROS:
Awaken your sensual self and activate your inner sovereignty
Sunday 11/1/26
1 - 6 pm
Affelder House in the West Woods (Geauga County, OH)
Inside you is a wild woman.
She isn’t soft or quiet. She is isn’t a people pleaser.
She takes up space and is unapologetic in her desires.
She is confident, creative, and lives life according to her own rules.
Find your spark
Welcome to EMBODIED EROS, a group retreat to awaken your sensual self and activate your inner sovereignty.
In this intimate gathering for 8-10 women*, we will rediscover our connection to our senses, reclaiming our bodies as intuitive channels for wisdom and creativity. Through meditation, movement, and ritual, we will unlock the embodied sensual power of our wild self.
Retreat includes:
Sacral chakra awakening
Fire ceremony
Guided nature meditation
Intuitive movement
Restorative yoga & massage
*Thanks for understanding that this retreat is not designed for men and masc-identified folx. Trans women and femmes welcome.
Activate your power
This retreat might be for you if
you are interested in deepening your connection to your intuition and creativity
you’re ready to increase your capacity for pleasure and sensuality
you want to feel more aligned with your authentic desires
Follow your pleasure
Our bodies are creative instruments. Our erotic energy is meant to flow freely. One of the biggest misconceptions keeping women from our power is that our desires need to be contained.
Your desire is your compass. Your body is your map. In this space you are allowed to be your most unholy and unhinged self. You are encouraged to howl and shake and moan. You are invited to feel and express the full range of embodied sensations and emotions. You are safe to reclaim your sensuality and your right to pleasure.
The Affelder House

Yoga mats will be provided, along with coffee, tea and snacks. Please dress in comfortable clothing and bring a journal if you would like.

“The very word erotic comes from the Greek word eros, the personification of love in all its aspects - born of Chaos, and personifying creative power and harmony. When I speak of the erotic, then, I speak of it as an assertion of the lifeforce of women; of that creative energy empowered, the knowledge and use of which we are now reclaiming in our language, our history, our dancing, our loving, our work, our lives.”
― Audre Lorde, Uses of the Erotic: The Erotic as Power
