Conscious Connected Touch

06/03/2026

Hi beautiful ones, to celebrate International Women's Day, I’m holding a women only cuddle puddle:

It’s going to be an afternoon centred on nurturing, nourishing and loving, platonic touch - a dedicated time and space for you to ask for and receive the holding/touch that your body may be craving.

Is there something that would make your shoulders drop, your jaws unclench and your chest sigh in relaxation and release? A human weighted blanket, having your hair brushed/stroked, foot rub…? Maybe being cradled or a hand held in compassion.

These 2.5hrs are for you, to honour you - we don’t always get asked what touch we really want/need but on 8th March that’s the exact question we’ll be asking ourselves and each other.

With clear communication around consent and boundaries, all touch is optional and you can choose how you participate.

The afternoon closes with the group cuddle puddle.

📆 Sunday 8th March
🕙 12pm - 2:30pm
📍 The Space Within, Astwood (near Cranfield), MK16 9JU
🎟️ £15 - https://consciousconnectedtouch.com/cuddle-puddles

Please also share with any of our women that you know who'd benefit from a little nurturing and holding or even better, bring them along with you.

Much love and hugs,
Samii

Much respect to those of you who showed random acts of kindness to others today! 🤗

Just as much respect to those of you who were kind to yourself today! 👏🏻

And whilst it's a good way to bring awareness to the importance of kindelness - let's remember that we shouldn't and don't need set days to be kind to others.

Much love and hugs to you all

Have you ever felt closer to someone or to a group after sharing an activity together? A concert or sporting event for example

Sharing experiences or doing activities together is also a way of being intimate.

Have you ever felt more connected to a person/group after a shared experience? After a cuddle puddle perhaps 😉

Drop yours below (whilst there are many ways to share experiences, let's keep the ones in the comments platonic please 😊)

Much love and hugs

I hear almost exactly the same comments at every cuddle puddle and today was no exception.

As soon as I announce that we're on our penultimate song, the desire to stay together longer in this moment becomes vocal from everyone, every time.

And it just shows that once we allow ourselves to give and receive in this platonic, nurturing space, our bodies remember how normal it feels to be in co-regulation and connection. Because it is normal, we've just forgotten that over the years.

Did we just turn up and lay down together? No - we create a safe and bonded space first through some touch based activities, centred in communication and consent - that's why, by the time I announce the time drawing tona close, these comments are related time and time again.

Emotional intimacy - it's a big one!

This is one that we often crave or notice the absence of when we don't have it in our relationships (not just romantic ones).

So how do we build emotional intimacy?

Sharing our emotions - or fears, our vulnerabilities and insecurities. Also sharing our joys, excitement, sorrow, love (all kinds) and much more.

When we feel safe to share our emotions with another or in a group, we feel connected.

Having empty for each other is important - intimacy isn't one sided.

Emotional intimacy also builds when we experience or witness emotions together, for example, laughing or crying together.

For some, emotional intimacy comes easily and for others it can be a real challenge - but, when we can build it with another or as a group, it can create some very deep and special bonds.

How do you feel about emotional intimacy, does it come easy to you, do you wish you could open up more emotionally with others? Here's your opportunity to build some now by dropping your feelings on the matter in the comments.

Much love and hugs

Spiritual intimacy is sharing your beliefs and values with another. This can be something that you feel apprehensive about sharing with someone in case they don't share the same views but if you can talk openly and respectfully with each other about your own beliefs and be respectful towards each other, this is building spiritual intimacy.

Another way is to participate in spiritual or religious activities, ceremonies or rituals together, either as a group or just with another individual.

Feeling safe to share and practice your beliefs and values openly in the presence of others is how we get our spiritual intimacy needs met and for some this is a really important part of making connections.

Share your thoughts on spiritual intimacy in the comments.

Much love and hugs,

Today's video is a brief explanation of intellectual intimacy.

It's one of the lesser acknowledged or understood ways of being intimate but it's also one of the most important for some people to allow them to bond and create strong connections with another.

Being able to share your thoughts, opinions, ideas and dreams etc. also sharing the things you love with another such as books or art. Sharing your ideas on topics that could cause disagreement such as politics for example can be quite vulnerable and it doesn't mean that you have to agree to be able to build intimacy and connection this intellectually, it's all about being open and creating space to hear and receive the other's views in a receptive way so you both feel safe to express yourselves authentically.

Do you need intellectual intimacy to form connections?

What other ways can you think of to build intellectual intimacy?

Stay tuned for the other videos which will cover spiritual, emotional and of course physical intimacy.

Much love and hugs
