Background in Conscious Sexuality
Stephen's background in conscious sexuality is partly personal experience with, and exploration of, his own sexuality. He has explored, theoretically and experientially, different expressions of sexuality and relationship in search of his own truth and authentic expression. From 2002, his personal work in this area was initiated in part by a series of courses called the Harlequin Experience facilitated by Christopher Neville. This provided a foundation for developing self-awareness and personal-power.
Being interested in working positively with sexuality and looking for a basis from which to do this, Stephen trained for two years in a counselling modality with Yehuda Tagar of Persephone Institute. This form of process work, based on Rudolph Steiner's Anthroposophical approach to personal development, integrates spiritual awareness, body consciousness, innate inner-wisdom and self-healing.
Stephen continues to delve into spiritual/shamanistic/esoteric/mystery traditions such as the Lojong Tibetan Buddhist, Mexican Toltec and Eastern Tantric teachings, developing inner-awareness and compassion.
In his association with the Advait Tantra School, under the experienced guidance of his colleague Dr Shakti Malan, Stephen has been facilitating awareness and conscious/sacred sexuality practices through talks, workshops, retreats, personal sessions and group work since the beginning of 2009.

It's a pleasure Lindy. It's moving from aloneness and separation to togetherness and integration... and a little compassionate, loving holding is wonderful support as we step into the beauty of our vulnerability and our awesome strength.

Thank you for those insightful words on Maya's fb page. It is nice to know that others have an understanding of what you are experiencing. Then you can better get to grips with the frightening part, knowing that others have travelled this same path, and come out better people on the other side. Thanks, Regards, Lindy

Hi Alan, thank you for getting in contact.
Ideas around sexuality and intimacy are a huge aspect of what is thought about men and masculinity. I completely support this being introduced into men's groups/programs. I am pursuing some of this myself to see where knowledge and experience of Tantra can bring men into greater awareness of themselves and their relations. The Masculine Identity workshop I'm running is a starting point.
I've sent you an email and look forward to hearing more.
