3 ways to stay connected within our growing community of embodied, conscious individuals who care about sex, love and relationships and are devoted to growing, learning and evolving their art of intimacy
Access to "Universal Intimacy: The Community," a living practice space for embodied, conscious humans who care about sex, love and relationships, and want to continue to grow, learn and evolve in the art of intimacy. As a Community Member you receive access to the Live Calls and the Community Chat, as well as additional videos and resources shared by Josephine.
Founding Members receive access to Universal Intimacy The Community plus • Founding member rate (locked in) • Direct influence on community structure, themes and special events • FREE access to in-person Urban Intimacy events • Invitation to Temple of Loha retreat (October 2026)
Join the UI Community as a Peer, a fellow Practitioner of Somatics, Tantra, Intimacy and the Esoteric Arts to gain access to the calls and the recordings, yet not partake in the 24/7 Community Access
What We Ask of You
This space exists to support presence, safety, and authentic connection. By joining, you agree to the following shared values:
We honor boundaries and ask before offering feedback, advice, or interpretation.
Consent-centered
We move with care, knowing everyone carries their own lived experiences.
Trauma-aware
While we may explore themes of intimacy, desire, and erotic embodiment, this is not a space for exchanging sexual energy or overtly erotically charged content. There is to be no direct explicit content or sexual interaction or “sext”ing between members within the chat room. All sharing remains grounded, consensual, and appropriate.
If the Live Virtual Calls involve a practice in which nudity is permitted, we ask that you turn your cameras off, to respect the boundaries of others.
If you have been magnetized to join Universal Intimacy - The Community hoping to see erotic content or to witness explicit content, this is NOT the container for you. Likewise, if you are joining Universal Intimacy with the specific intention of meeting a potential partner, this is NOT the container for you, as our members are grounded in the desire to learn, grow and evolve thru the teachings, embodied practices and transmissions. If your language, behavior or energy is deemed to be inappropriate at any time by any of the Community members, you will be asked to leave. Your membership fee will not be refunded. You can cancel your subscription after the next pay period.
What’s shared here stays here. This is a protected space for honesty and vulnerability.
Confidential
Shame-free
We don’t “yuck” another’s “yum.” We are non-judgemental witnesses to each other’s shares, experiences and preferences. There is no fixing, judging, or correcting — only curiosity and respect.
Embodied over performative
We value presence over polish, authenticity over performance. Come as you are and be respectful of each other’s embodiment, vulnerability and intimacy.
Practice over perfection
This is a space to explore, learn, and show up as you are. If you are in a process, we honor exactly where you are at in each and every moment of your journey.
