Happy New Year! (And an invitation to sit with us today.)


Howdy all -

A very happy new year from your friends at Wicked Grounds! We hope that whatever your journey looks like this year, we can be of service in helping you find the next steps on your own erotic roadmap.

I firmly believe that kink and erotic pleasure are two parts of being fully ourselves. These can be part of a larger path of self-awareness and presence. Kink isn't separate from the rest of our lives! A strong erotic presence can fuel our creativity, passions, and relationships.

It's in this spirit that Wicked Grounds offers an annual Month of Mindfulness to restart each year. Yes, there are a lot of other places that you can practice meditation, journaling, and mindfulness. But -- as I discovered almost 15 years ago when co-founding East Bay Meditation Center's Queer Leather Meditation deep refuge group -- few of those spaces allow us to come to the table full as who we are.

If you'd like to join us this year, it's not too late. Our first live session is today at 11am Pacific, and early registration (and the chance to use our Boxing Day discount) end tonight. However, we'll still have our two higher registration tiers available till end of month and everything is recorded -- so if you decide to join us late, the doors will be open!

However you choose to spend this first day of the new year, I hope it's a great one!

Warmly

Mir

PS: It's the last day to get in on our Boxing Day Sale, which applies to all digital downloads, events passes, coaching, and multi-week intensives at Wicked Grounds Annex. Just use code BOXING_2025 for 20% off at checkout now through midnight Pacific.

Howdy kinksters - I hope you’re being gentle with yourselves and one another this week. I continue to believe that honoring our erotic selves and building resilient communities is critical. We’re going to keep making lots of space for that. I’m particularly happy this week to announce that we’re launching our first weekend of live programming in Los Angeles in late March! We’ll start with a third Friday Play Lab, and then I’m hosting two short classes and one daylong intensive over the...

Howdy kinksters - I hope you’re doing well this week. Several times this week I’ve seen kinksters come together in San Francisco or online and I am encouraged by the many ways I see folks building community right now. We have some great classes coming up for you this year: whether you’re in the San Francisco Bay Area, online, or now in other parts of the western US! If you are in Los Angeles, mark your calendars: Wicked Grounds is launching our first in what will be a regular series of LA...
