Our body is our temple, and as our temple it houses the most sacred and scariest truth about us: our sexuality. As lesbian, bisexual, and transgender women, however, our sexuality transgresses conventional norms. When we embrace the Christian mind-body dualism, we lose our body, sexuality, and spirit. We also lose our freedom and our identity. Rev. Irene Monroe leads this workshop to help us find our way back to our body as we move from brokenness to wholeness.
This workshop takes us on a safe and sacred journey to reclaim our physical, spiritual, and sexual bodies. Through body stories, experiential exercises, meditation, music, play, guided imagery, and ritual, we cure our self of our own body hatred and of society’s homophobia, and learn to enjoy our sexuality and our sexual needs and desires. In the process, we also tap into our body wisdom as an authentic and intuitive guide to the creation of an abundant life.
In O, The Oprah Magazine, Rev. Irene Monroe is described as “a phenomenal woman who has succeeded against all odds.” As an African-American feminist public theologian, she is a sought-after speaker, preacher, and writer about women’s and gender issues. Her forthcoming book is Let Your Light Shine Like a Rainbow. irenemonroe.com
