Book Description
Grounded in years of experience as a teacher and practitioner of sacred intimacy, Caffyn Jesse guides us in understanding how our biophysical need for love, and our autonomic nervous system reactions to the threat of being unloved, can lead us into dysfunctional patterns and roles that make our relationships feel hurtful, fruitless, partial or provisional. To truly live into our capacity for love and our longing for belonging, Jesse guides, we can stop accepting as "good enough" all normative patterns of love and belonging based on threat management, fear and greed. Elements of Intimacy offers practical strategies and poetic inspiration for identifying reactive patterns and using them as gateways into more spacious, archetypal energies. We can learn to interact in ways that foster intimacy, and empower a dance of loving connection based on goodwill and welcome. We can choose kindness, practice gratitude and generosity, and attune our energy with the biosphere of belonging. As we learn to create a neurological feedback loop that supports a wonderful world within and around us, we find ourselves welcoming more and more joy and intimacy into our lives.
