Real intimacy is a sacred experience.
It never exposes its secret trust and belonging to the voyeuristic eye
​of a neon culture. Real intimacy is of the soul, and the soul is reserved.

​John O'Donohue
Relational Intimacy deepens our connection with ourselves, others, and nature through a trauma-informed somatic process. Recognize, integrate, and heal hidden wounds in our personal, ancestral, and collective selves. Join our experiential journey toward physical, mental, and emotional wholeness.
Tap into innate inner wisdom and explore the magic of Relational Intimacy with us.
If you find yourself in repetitive and habitual arguments, challenges, and difficulties in your personal, familial, or work relationships, feel you are not being heard or seen by the most important people in your life, or experience frustration in having your voice heard. Your most important projects manifested, this is a course for you. Together, we will discover the alchemy of living relationally and create a new paradigm for a connected and thriving life.
Intimacy is a totally different dimension. It is allowing the other to come into you,
to see you as you see yourself.

TESTIMONIALS ​
Michael’s course was life-changing for me….when I registered for the course, I had just had a loss in my life of someone very close to me, I was experiencing deep grief that I could not seem to release, I was taking care of my mother with dementia, I had insomnia, and very few days where I felt peace….
After participating in Michael’s workshop, I went home and….slept without insomnia and had flu-like symptoms for two days. On the third day, I felt this peace in my mind and in my body that I had never experienced. When I registered, I sure did not expect such a change in two days. Thank you!
​~Lisa Aydlett, College professor
I have a deeper understanding of myself and others. It was a big release, allowing me to be vulnerable. Feelings of freedom, an opening of my heart, letting go of old beliefs and stories—lots of tears and laughter. I am very grateful to our group and our strong warrior leader, Michael Stone.
​~Valerie Hummingbird, Singer
Sometimes in life, one may need to stop, reflect, regulate, and shift. Doing this work in an intimate group environment is the perfect and most impactful way to begin this journey. Thank you to Michael, the group, and all of our spiritual guides
~Laura, Business Owner
Thank you for a wonderful, gentle journey deeper into "me" than I get from Traditional Therapy. I left feeling more alive and in touch with both myself and others. The group co-creating in an authentic, safe space like this is something EVERYONE should experience.

I wish the concepts we learn from you, Michael, could be taught to each and every teacher so that every kid can learn about these at a young age. I'm thankful for the opportunity to do this work. It's more worthwhile than I imagined.
