What’s Included

Universal Intimacy: The Community

is a virtual sanctuary for individuals and couples who want to experience intimacy as a felt, lived reality—not just a concept, technique, or ideal.

This is a space for humans who are ready to:

  • Relate from the body, not just the mind

  • Build nervous-system safety in intimacy

  • Practice authentic connection, consent, and repair

  • Cultivate erotic aliveness without pressure or performance

  • Learn in community rather than isolation.

  • ✧ 24/7 Community Chat Spaces

    An ongoing container for connection, reflection, and support.

    Dedicated spaces for:

    • Sharing insights and lived experiences

    • Asking questions and receiving relational reflection

    • Being witnessed without being “fixed”

    • Practicing intimacy through honest expression

    This is a moderated space with clear agreements around confidentiality, consent, and care.

  • Live Universal Intimacy Call (90 min) 2 x per month Tuesdays at 8 p.m. CT

    A consistent, guided space to practice intimacy in real time.

    Each call will be led by Somatic Intimacy Coach, Josephine Lauer, and may include:

    • Somatic and nervous-system-based practices

    • Relational teachings applied to real life

    • Solo and partnered exercises (always optional)

    • Integration and reflection

    These calls are experiential, trauma-aware, and consent-centered—designed to meet you exactly where you are. Come just to listen, come to ask questions! There will always be ample time for Q&A.

  • All of our resources are created by people who know their stuff—so you can trust what you’re learning.
