Join Monique and I for 4 days of Cuddles, Speed Flirting, Energetic Sex and a Puja in March!
Cuddle Party is a 3 hour workshop experience where participants engage in communication exercises, explore touch in a non-sexual space, experience personal exploration and intimacy, and have fun with like minded friends from the community.
Nurturing and consensual loving touch is good for maintaining healthy blood pressure, a strong nervous system and a balanced emotional health. One’s ability to connect with and develop greater trust in others is emphasized during the group exchanges during Cuddle Party’s. Self-care is a cornerstone of Cuddle Party experience.
As seen on CBS’s the DR’S – http://thedoctorstv.com/
Cuddle Party is a formal, non-sexual event that offers participants an opportunity to explore intimacy with like-minded others. In a relaxed environment, that upholds personal boundaries and maintains a professional atmosphere, at all times, one is encouraged to engage in communication and touch, in a non-threatening, share-affirming environment.
Cuddle Party is a holistic, social environment, that attracts fascinating people from all walks of life. It provides a special and unique opportunity for connection, learning and growth. Come cuddle with us!
About Cuddle Party from Monique:
I have facilitated 100”²s of Cuddle Parties. I am as passionate about the Cuddle Party experience today, as I was the first one, over five years ago. YES! It helped me reclaim my voice and I am passionate about helping others do the same.
Cuddle Party experiences teach participants, they alone create their own safety container. How did it change my life? When I was growing up and received a NO, it felt like I was being rejected. The result was my emphasis on being nice, being lovable and being unconditionally available. The profound learning came when I realized my unyielding YES’s became a subconscious inability to trust another person’s YES, without their own personally vocalized NO!
I am very appreciative and honored by the courage shown by those who have clear boundaries, and an ability to voice their YES and NO decisions without guilt, shame or fear. It gives me the confidence to ask for what my own heart desires, instead of censoring myself, knowing the receiver of my request has the voice and courage to embrace or withdraw, based on their own perimeters. “Thank you for taking care of your self”
After the Welcome Circle, Reid will offer a mini version of his speed flirting class, to help break the ice and dive us into getting to know one another.
Speed-Flirting is a rambunctious, social event for men, women, humans of all ages. The usual definition of flirting as just “a sexual thang” limits our ability to engage with people playfully. What if flirting meant “increasing the fun and play in any interaction?” Perfect for singles, couples, and entire communities, Speed-Flirting gives us the tools to go deeper than just a wink and a smile…
Speed-Flirting will teach you to:
–Break the ice with ease and confidence.
–Make your dating and relationship life pressure-free.
–Say No without feeling guilty.
–Keep people from misunderstanding your intentions.
–Relate with rejection gracefully and leave people feeling better for having met you.
–Get anyone to make the first move.
Join sex and relationship educator Reid Mihalko (creator of the pop-culture phenomenon Cuddle Party) for an exciting and comical evening of flirtation. Add more aliveness to your existing relationships. Make new friends in the most exciting way possible.
Speed-Flirting features a series of structured games and exercises with lots of easy-to-apply tools for breaking the ice, overcoming awkward moments, and for deep-connection through play.
IMPORTANT CUDDLE PARTY NOTES:
BRING: Comfortable PJS, Blankets, Pillows and any kind of soft fluff to enhance your experience.
PLEASE BE ON TIME: Make certain to account FOR TRAFFIC AND PARKING.
Doors lock at 7:15. The opening Welcome Circle is for introductions and to go over the rules of Cuddle Party. This is an important aspect of the Cuddle Party experience and creates a safe container for all participants. It is essential that everyone be on time.

Learn how to Fearlessly Relate with Monique and Reid!
Are you ready to take an intensive weekend of FEARLESS RELATING with two of the most dynamic relationship geeks on the planet today? Come blow your mind and open your heart with vulnerability diva Monique Darling, and sex and relationship expert Reid Mihalko.
If you could have anything, do anything, what would you choose? What do you really want? What is keeping you from having it? Is someone else better qualified? better looking? more financially stable? Do you have “problems”? What if every limit you have, every chain that binds you, is only there because you believe it is? What if the limits disappear, the chains dissolve?. Your life is alive with an abundance of possibilities, opportunities, and potential all you have to do is be willing to say “yes”.
So much of the fear and hesitation in life comes not from the self, but from fretting about what others may think,or what they will say or whom they might share it with afterwards rather than being able to enjoy the moment. Another set of fears come from passed-down beliefs that we accept without questioning them.
What if you could make decisions and follow your heart…follow your body and your desires without worrying about what others thought? What if you were fearless in relating — first, to yourself and then, to others?
We all have feelings of ferocity and tenderness, but we must feel safe in order to be vulnerable and intimate with another. Part of that safety is being confident in our own ability to say ‘NO’ and take a stand for our boundaries. Only then can we play in the realm of our true ‘HELL YES!’
Come join us for a unique weekend of exploration around such topics as:
–How do we establish boundaries and create safe space for ourselves to explore with others?
–Shifting paradigms from blame, shame, guilt & judgement, to love, acceptance, understanding and presence.
–Factors that promote or inhibit intimacy:
–The power of no and boundary (understand why your “no” says more about you than your “yes”)
In this workshop you will learn, play, and practice:
–To ask for what you want, skillfully, without attachment to the response.
–To honor, respect, and be grateful for the answer “no”, and still be hopeful for the answer “yes”.
–To be honest and vulnerable about your wants and desires without shame, without deflection, without armor.
–To hold space for someone who has not yet learned these skills.
–To own your fears, instead of them owning you.
–To not be afraid to be the one who loves the most
–To learn to be even more vulnerable when you want to isolate or close down.
–Release shame and haunting memories
–Modalities of communication: verbal and non verbal
You will gain tools and leave with the ability to relate with everyone in your life with more ease, grace, and blissful contentment from your own center.
Are you confused about dating, mating, and relating in the 21st Century?
Dating, marriage and the reasons we stay in relationships have changed a lot since the days of our great grandparents.
Join us for this humorous, frank and informative, intensive workshop where sex and relationship expert Reid Mihalko boils down over 150,000 conversations he’s had about sex and relationships and walks us through his best thinking and advice on making sex, dating, relationships and mating work!
Participants will leave this interactive workshop experience discovering:
– Tools to determine if someone is a good or horrible fit for you…
– Communication Skills to ask for what they want and how to avoid past relationship mistakes…
– A few of Reid’s and Monique’s “black belt” relationship tips and tricks!
Then, let Monique Darling, Consent Geek Extraordinaire, lead you through all of the tools, tips, tricks and how to uplevel the questions you are asking yourself and others to truly be able to find and live from your own “Hell Yes”!! Monique has been leading Cuddle Parties (just facilitated her 346th)all over the country, which are 3 1/2 hours of practicing this concept.
How amazing would it be to live life offering every “no” without apology and every “yes” without being ashamed? Learn that it really isn’t about anyone else, it’s about tuning in and taking care of you, and then you can relate with ease and joy with others, wherever they are at.
Learning better sexual technique will boost your sexual self-confidence, raise your self-esteem, and make you more confident and competent in sex and love! Being THAT kind of person is attractive in AND out of the bedroom! Part of the weekend will cover how to increase your sexual self-confidence ten-fold and start becoming a more attractive, self-expressed and fearless person in all your relationships!
Through no nudity, interactive, hilariously “edutaining” demonstrations, you will learn:
– How to use fantasy to turbo-charge a lover’s orgasm…
– How to listen to your partner’s body in bed…
– How to create your own “sexual positions decoder ring” so you naturally “think” about lovemaking in an exciting, Kama Sutra way!
–How to slow down sexual experience for greater pleasure
learning to STOP judging ourselves and our partners
–Understanding how to expand our own sexual energy and our PLEASURE Body

– 3 ways to use your hands sexually that will drive your partner wild AND leave you feeling more confident as a lover!
– 2 BIG differences between penises and vulvas, and 1 thing that’s the same that will make you 10-times better in bed…
– And still more!
If you ever begin to understand who you are, you could not possibly ever compare yourself to another, to envy, wish to impress, to BE different than you are. For in the beauty, wonder, and awe at discovering how magnificent “your” puzzle pieces fit together, at the ever changing infinite ways YOU shift, dance, I Need Your Love – Is That True?: How to Stop Seeking Love, Approval, and Appreciation and Start Finding Them Insteadeave together, each one so unique, so extraordinary, it would take an entire lifetime to only just begin to discover. Yet so often we abandon the quest of self discovery, to follow another, or to invest in relationships, doing what we have been told is the “right” way to be. The greatest freedom that we could ever express or imagine, is by simply giving ourselves permission to gently keep returning to us and we can transform the world by simply being 100% ourselves.
Come with an open heart and a willingness, a longing, to bring your stories into the light, so that they can stop you running away from your shadow.
There will be times, over the weekend, when the atmosphere will be sensual and energetically sexual. All activities and exercises will be guided and are always optional. You can participate in the workshop solo, with a partner and in small groups. All participants are asked to practice with each other, or by oneself, in whatever manner supports you best. Many options will be offered to support each individual experience.
set your sights on registering for this breakthrough weekend, and get a two for the price of one deal by paying only what it ordinarily costs to learn from just one of these facilitators.
So say ‘HELL YES’ to discovering ‘YOU’

Monique has traveled all over the country doing puja’s of every type imaginable and would like to give you a taste of ALL of them!
What is a puja? A puja is a ceremony to practice the path of tantra. In the East, puja is a celebration of the Divine, an honoring ceremony for a God or a Goddess, and those somewhere in between 😉 In the West, we also celebrate the Divine, the divine in each of us. A puja is a group of people like you, open to celebrating heart felt interactions. During a puja we pair up with partners and practice different exercises that are designed to open our hearts, and deeper connect with ourselves and with others. It is an evening that will nurture your body, heart and spirit.
This will be Boston’s first 3way puja! You will have the unique opportunity to do the stations (exercises) in groups of 3. Monique and Reid will sprinkle in tools, tidbits, and tips on how to navigate successful threeways, and we will pull us down into a deep dive to experience every station to its fullest.
You are can come by yourself, with a partner, or with a couple of partners! Singles, couples, triads, pods and more are all welcome! People of all gender identities, sexual orientations, and relationship orientations are invited. 🙂
This is an excellent safe fully clothed structured space, for you to get to move through the potential awkward moments of interacting in a small group, plus it will just be a fun, connective, humorous evening, wherein we get permission to laugh at ourselves, to not have to “get it right” as you dare to try out something new.
Things to look forward to:
– Loosen the shackles that bind your heart and tongue as you find your divine reflection through each person you interact with.
– Be witnessed with such clarity and unconditional love, you will emerge transformed.
– Begin to connect with others in wonder, curiosity, and utter awareness, celebrating the divine presence within us all.
– Enter a wonderland of delights where every touch sensation you can imagine (and even a few beyond your wildest dreams) are laid out for you to explore.
– Explore both touching and being touched for your own pleasure, taking turns to fully focus on giving and then on receiving touch.
– Practice asking for the exact touch that you are craving in any moment.
– Hold one another’s tears
– Communicate with another in total silence
– Be guided on a journey using the most intimate form of touch, our breath.
– We’ll be introducing an ancient ritual where you will explore each-others bodies, magnifying your connection physically, energetically, and spiritually.
– Then align your chakras through touch, breath, connection, and shared intent.
– Then earth touch, as you ground, and recenter, massage, nurture, hold, BE with one another.
– Followed by fire, as you invigorate, entice, awaken, arouse, “heat” up yourself and your partner
– Cooling down with water touch, fluid, soft, caressing, gentle, swaying, following, gliding
– With each element drop even deeper into your embodied bliss state as you learn to touch for YOUR pleasure, as you get to practice asking for the specific types of touch your body is craving/imagining at any moment.
If you come with partner(s), you can do all the negotiated exercises with one another, or you can choose to rotate through the room, where at each station (Exercise) you will have a chance to interact with 2 or more new people.
