It’s easy to hear the wisdom and see the vibrancy now, but who was he before? What were his struggles back then? And what are they now?

• How did they do it? What woke them up? And what trials and tribulations did they face to get to where they are now?
• Were 4th thru 7th grade as painful for them as they were for some of us? When did it change? What can we learn from it?
• Was losing their first sexual experience a spiritual one, or would it take years for that to happen? And why?
• What were their greatest sexual and spiritual challenges in the beginning? And what about now?

Are you curious to know the answers? Well, Reid is too! Come to the Center for Sex and Culture and let’s all find out together, shall we?

Join Reid Mihalko for a rare opportunity:

a candid evening with

Baba Dez Nichols

talking about our pasts.

Whether you’ve been studying Tantra for your entire life, are brand new to Sacred Sexuality and Sex Magic, or just curious to find out the real-life, behind the “guru” story of how a man grew up to create the Sedona Temple, the School of Temple Arts, and the Annual Daka-Dakini Conferences (now spreading across the globe)…

Come to Reid’s event space, Fruitopia, in East Oakland and get a taste of the story behind the man. Together we will find out…

• What’s the connection between sex, spirituality and transforming the world…
• How sex can “heal” our bodies and, quite possibly, the planet…
• How understanding and experiencing a conscious connection with our nervous systems can bring us all the way into living freedom and bliss…
• How we can deepen our ability to support ourselves, our people, and all humanity in conscious evolution.

Eavesdrop in on this intimate, one-on-one conversation. Participate in the Q&A period, and ask Baba Dez your questions. Meet Dez and Reid, and mingle with like-minded, sex positive men and women. Come experience one of the great influences of and contributors to the Sacred Sexual movement!
