Reclaiming My Sexual Body

Alert! Our sexual bodies have been hijacked by mainstream media and culture.

From porn scripts to wellness trends to productivity-style pleasure tips, we’re constantly told how our bodies should look, feel, and respond. This 3-hour virtual workshop is an invitation to interrupt those messages, unlearn harmful myths, and reclaim pleasure on your own terms.

Join Ceci for a live, interactive online experience focused on embodied pleasure, curiosity, and self-trust. Together, we’ll explore what science actually says about pleasure and arousal, how our bodies and nervous systems work, and why so many of us feel disconnected from sensation, desire, or enjoyment. This isn’t about fixing yourself, it’s about remembering what’s already available when the pressure comes off.

The workshop is experiential and playful. Through guided practices, we’ll experiment with breath, sound, movement, attention, and imagination to inhabit our bodies more fully. Expect moments of awkwardness or feeling a little weird (a feature, not a bug). We’ll explore pleasure as something expansive and personal, not limited to genitals or goal-oriented outcomes.

There will also be space for optional reflection and sharing. You’re invited to name insights, ask questions, and celebrate discoveries, while helping create a temporary online bubble of acceptance where all identities, bodies, and expressions are welcome.

What we’ll cover

• How mainstream culture, porn, and performance narratives shape (and limit) our experience of pleasure
• What current science says about pleasure, arousal, and the nervous system
• Expanding pleasure beyond genitals, orgasm, and “doing it right”
• Practices for sensing, noticing, and inhabiting your body more fully
• Building self-trust and choice in intimate experiences
• Bringing curiosity and play back into pleasure

Important practical notes

• This is a fully clothed workshop
• There is no genital touching

Think of this as a “dry run”: safe, structured practices that help you build awareness and confidence to bring into your own intimate life later. The real wet happens elsewhere.

The 3 hours will include short lecture segments, guided solo and partnered exercises (adaptable for joining solo), group discussion, and breaks. You can participate from your own space, at your own pace. All exercises can be adapted to different bodies, abilities, and access needs, and opting out is always welcome.

Who this workshop is for

• Anyone curious about reconnecting with pleasure with more ownership and agency
• People who feel disconnected, stuck, numb, or overly in their head around sex or pleasure
• Folks wanting to unlearn shame, performance pressure, or “shoulds” around desire
• People interested in science-informed, body-based approaches to pleasure

No prior experience is needed. Come as you are — curious, skeptical, excited, nervous, or all of the above — with a willingness to explore and question what you’ve been taught about pleasure.
