Poly High Tea
1:00p-3:00p - Monday thru Saturday
Just what is Poly High Tea? -
First, it's a Tea Party. We will be serving Tea and Cookies...
All you Polyamorous, poly-curious, and poly-friendly folks out
there on the playa are invited to join us for a discussion about
the practical issues of loving more than one in an open,
responsible multi-person relationship. There are many workable
forms of Polyamorous relationship - polyamory is polymorphic!
There is much wisdom in the poly community which can be helpful
to people trying to make *any* relationship work, monogamous or
Polyamorous. There will be a facilitated discussion in which you
can get your questions addressed and some of the knowledge in
our community can be shared.
If you'd like to cool off and de-dust yourself after our tea
party, bring a water donation to enjoy PolyParadise's famous Human Carcass Wash.
Hiney Hygiene Station
1:00p-4:00p - Monday thru Saturday - other times by
signup sheet
Let’s
face it. It’s not only the exposed parts of your body that get sore,
chafed and red from Burning Man, it’s also your nether region. Not
being able to use baby wipes in the porta-potty and the endless
hours biking in the desert take their toll.
The Hospital Gowned Personnel at the Hiney Hygiene Station are here
to help.
Our highly professional staff of “Hiney Hygienist” will use baby
wipes, warm Shea Butter soapy water and Moisturizing Lotions with
Aloe Vera, Vitamin E, A, B5 and Minerals on your… Well you know
what.
So why not let us “Pamper Your Posterior” at the Hiney Hygiene
Station today?

Human Carcass Wash!!!

Herpes/STIs Out of the Closet!

This is an info session and meet up for people who struggle with how
to communicate about STIs with their partners, people who have
developed practices of communication that work, and those who are
simply curious, uniformed, or scared. All welcome.
Revolutionary Honesty
3:30p - 5:00p - Tuesday
This is not your everyday honesty, where you say the things you have
safely preapproved for mass consumption, but the sticky gooey stuff
it's hard to get out. We will model and practice together as a group
with an eye for change in personal, political and social
relationships.
Mind Melt
8:00p - 9:00p - Monday thru Friday
Mind Melt lets your mind be changed from Fear of the unknown, to
finding Hope in the Future, by experiencing 3-D Images of lights and
sounds and the peace only found within the receptive mind and
experience of every thought, feelings, sensations, and level of
awareness through corresponding brain wave patterns.
Mind machines change your perception by stimulating balanced,
abundant neurotransmitter production, expanding neural pathways, and
programming desirable, ecologically sound behaviors. The use of mind
melting can enhance physical healing and homeostasis, intellectual
performance, and greatly improved a sense of well-being, which
allows one to See beauty where others do not, and a new perception
of life that is the Future for all Mankind.
Remember; nothing really exists, it’s all in the electrons of your
mind.
The Heart of Now
10:45a - 12:45p - Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday
The essence of the Heart of Now is the practice of being present
with your whole self. In The Heart of Now workshop, you’ll come to
know yourself more deeply. You’ll discover the possibility of
reconnection with your innate beauty, wholeness and be honest with
yourself and and with others in a safe circle of love. You can
discover those places you’ve felt stuck, while you are supported in
letting go. You learn to become aware of those times when you get in
your own way, and come to see the choices open to you. You embrace
what you desire the most, and deeply commit to letting your dreams
and your visions be more important than you past wounds. You will
find yourself reconnecting with your innate beauty, wholeness and
power in each moment.
Heart of Now workshops include numerous assistants to support you
and to create a sacred space for transformation. A deeply nurturing
environment is created. This teamwork approach deepens the
experience of service and camaraderie, where all are able to
experience their vulnerabilities, allowing trust and growth. For

Understanding Jealousy
11:00a - 1:00p - Wednesday
No matter what type of relationship you are in or
want to be in, jealousy seems to always rear its ugly head. Join
me in discussing this topic along with tools to identify,
understand, and work through your own jealous thoughts.
Radical Honesty
3:00p - 5:00p - Wednesday & Thursday
The Radical Honesty technique includes having practitioners state
their feelings bluntly, directly and in ways typically considered
impolite. People who practice Radical Honesty employ a collection of
techniques to shift them out of acceptable norms of "white lying"
for the purpose of having a more truthful relationship with
themselves and others.
In this workshop we will cover Radical Honesty in business, personal
interactions, legal situations, relationships, and SEX! Practicing
Radical Honesty as an individual is hard, but it doesn't have to be.
Me and people like me have developed a calm and peace from this
practice. This does involve immense change in those who are used to
telling white lies or lies in general.
If you are ready for a RADICAL change in your life or you just want
to learn about this crazy practice, come to Practicing Radical
Honesty for Beginners.
