EROS Retreat in Chiang Mai, Thailand — 2-6 December

Pleasure, Play & Joyful Resistance

“How would we organize and move our communities if we shifted to focus on what we long for and love rather than what we are negatively reacting to?”
— adrienne maree brown, Pleasure Activism

As part of Collective Wellness, I'm co-organising and facilitating the third edition of EROS Retreat!

EROS is a 5-day gathering in Chiang Mai for organisers, artists, community workers, creatives and care practitioners from across Southeast Asia and beyond. Together, we'll explore how pleasure, play and collective care can become practices that sustain both ourselves and the communities we love.

Drawing inspiration from Audre Lorde's understanding of the erotic as a source of aliveness, we'll spend five days moving, reflecting, creating, resting, and learning together. Through somatic practices, creative expression, time in nature, shared meals and collective inquiry, we'll reconnect with ourselves, one another, and the values that brought us to this work in the first place.

The retreat includes accommodation, all meals, and transportation to and from Chiang Mai city.
