About cuddle+:
Relax and let your Cuddle Facilitator, Stella, guide you step-by-step into the charming realm of platonic touch aka Cuddling. No touch is ever required.
Cuddle+ expands the cuddle experience into other forms of connection - it weaves platonic touch with gentle, playful movement and connection practices. Explore platonic intimacy, presence, and trust in a grounded, heart-centered way that nourishes the nervous system and honors your "yes" and your "no."
We’ll follow well-crafted, playful exercises designed to create a safe and meaningful space for connection and consensual touch.
Exchanging no-strings-attached platonic touch with a stranger reduces brain overwhelm within seconds and re-calibrates the body's fight-flight-freeze mechanism.
