What is Consent?
Consent goes beyond just physical/sexual consent - it applies to personal, professional, social, digital environments.
It involves agreement that is clearly communicated, enthusiastic, and freely given without coercion.
Consent cultivates trust, safety, enhanced connections, prevents misunderstandings, and promotes emotional wellbeing.
Effective Communication of Consent:
Use direct language, "I" statements to express boundaries clearly.
Practice active listening, ask clarifying questions, acknowledge others' boundaries.
Proactively ask for consent wherever possible using phrases like "Do I have your consent to..."
Deepening Connections Through Consent:
Consent deepens trust, reduces anxiety, allows authenticity.
Have flexibility even in intimate relationships to revoke/change consent.
Communicate boundaries bi-directionally to create a healthy dynamic.
Creating a Consent Culture:
Benefits include increased safety, reduced trauma/abuse, improved mental health.
Advocate for policy changes, open communication, education around consent.
Allows individuals to show up authentically and societies to transform.
Safrianna also addresses some of the impact of trauma on our relationships with consent, people pleasing, and codependency, woven throughout the teaching. At the end, she provides an energy clearing to gently release the past around our relationship with consent and welcome in a new future.
