Awaken as Eros

An Erotic Laboratory

One-Day | 6-Hour Immersive Taster

“It’s not selfish to put yourself first. It’s self-full.”

— Iyanla Vanzant

In Greek mythology, Eros is the god of love and desire. The term represents passion and attraction, embodying intense emotional and physical connections.

Join Reid Mihalko and Monique Darling for a six-hour immersive laboratory exploring desire, intimacy, and connection through communication, consent, and embodied choice.

This is not a spectacle.

This is not a free-for-all.

It’s a thoughtfully held space for adults who want to meet Eros with care and curiosity.

This one-day immersion is a taster of our longer 7-day Awaken as Eros experience, which we typically offer once a year somewhere in the world. It’s designed to offer meaningful skill-building, embodied insight, and a felt sense of the work, without requiring a full-week commitment.

During This Taster, You’ll Get a Taste Of:

• Exploring Eros with more ease and less shame

• Sensual anatomy and intimacy skills

• Communicating desire and navigating rejection with grace

• Boundaries that support attraction rather than limit it

• Releasing the soulmate trap and learning to “date your species”

• Pressure play and pelvic floor awareness

• Trauma, projection, repair, and resilience

• Research & Development sessions to explore without pressure

• Creating a personal menu of desires, curiosities, and edges

• Guided, optional naked touch offered with clarity and consent

Enough to shift how you relate to desire.

Enough to expand confidence and choice.

Enough to spark curiosity for what’s next.

Who This Is For

This experience is for emotionally mature adults interested in deepening intimacy skills and embodied self-awareness.

It’s not about rushing, proving, or pushing past limits.

It’s about learning to listen, to yourself and others, with more precision and care.

About Awaken as Eros

Awaken as Eros is an offshoot of the global Awaken as Love movement, weaving Eros, consent, communication, and integration into one cohesive practice.

Reid brings decades of experience in consent and intimacy education. I, Monique, am lead faculty within Awaken as Love, and this work reflects years of lived practice.

Together, we hold a container that is ethical, grounded, and alive.

If you’re curious about desire with skill,

intimacy with choice,

and Eros met with care…

This is a beautiful place to begin.
