A Mini-Workshop on Embodied Presence for Men 50+

Taught by Lee Warren

Men, we want you. We need you. You are an essential part of creating vibrant, connected, and alive erotic spaces.

And yet many men—especially later in life—are grappling with these questions: How do I approach someone without appearing creepy? How do I express desire without creating pressure? Why is that woman attracted to him instead of to me? What are the secrets to becoming more confident, embodied, and relaxed in an erotic container?

If you’ve ever felt uncertain, hesitant, overly eager, or afraid of getting it wrong, you’re not alone.

Explore new neural pathways that help you discover that your desire is not the problem. Together we’ll explore how to transform hungry, confused, intimidated, and overly mental energy into grounded presence, authentic confidence, and genuine connection.

Through experiential exercises, embodied practices, and practical tools, we’ll help you discover how to:

• Become a safe and magnetic presence in erotic spaces.

• Transform hunger into nourishment and receptivity.

• Connect your heart and your sexual centers.

• Cultivate presence that invites rather than pursues.

• Build genuine connection with all genders.

• Relax, enjoy yourself, and contribute to the field.

This isn’t about becoming a “better pickup artist” or learning social tricks.

It’s about relaxing into realizing that your presence is an enormous gift to us all.

Whether you’re brand new to erotic spaces or have been attending for years, this will support you to become more authentic, embodied, and alive.

Taught by Lee Warren

Lee Warren is a Tantra educator, somatic guide, writer, mystic, and community builder whose

work invites people into a more intimate relationship with embodiment, eros, and the mystery of being alive.

Rooted in a devotional erotic path and informed by more than three decades of ecovillage living, and place-based education, she explores the body as a doorway to wisdom, awakening, and authentic expression. Her teaching is centered on the inner marriage of spirit and matter—the lived experience of bringing our deepest essence into a fully embodied life. Her work invites participants into greater intimacy with themselves, one another, and the awe-filled mystery of existence.

A lived inquiry.

An embodied exploration.

A set of questions I’ve been walking with—not just intellectually, but through the body, through movement, through mortality, through community.

That inquiry becomes an in-person gathering this July:

The Ecstasy of Impermanence
July 3–5 | Emberlight | Swannanoa, NC

This is an experiential weekend for those drawn to a more intimate relationship with being mortal—and with the temporary, awe-filled, miraculous nature of being here at all.

Through movement, somatic inquiry, contemplation, play, mystery, and community, we’ll enter the strange and beautiful territory where death awareness deepens aliveness.

This is not a workshop.

Not a course.

Not grief support, exactly.

It’s a journey of delight in existence.

A living inquiry.

If these reflections have stirred something in you, I wanted to make the invitation explicit:

This is what they’ve been pointing toward.

Eros in Motion—A Tantric Dance Immersion
Saturday, May 16, 2026
1:30–10:30pm
Mandala Springs • Barnardsville, NC

What this is

An afternoon–evening immersion in movement, connection, and embodied aliveness.

A community-based ecstatic dance grounded in guided solo, partnered, and small-group practices, along with simple prompts for connection.

There are both structured and free-form elements throughout the day.

The space

A warm, respectful, inclusive, community-based environment.

All genders, body types, and sexual orientations welcome.

Low-pressure. Non-performative.

All participation is optional.

You’re always invited to move at your own pace.

From an October 2025 Participant

“This event was magical and transformative. I experienced a level of effortless connection that was grounded in care while simultaneously electrifying… riding wave after wave of communal heartgasms.”

How is it Tantric?

In this context, Tantra is not a set of techniques—it’s a way of being more fully alive in our own bodies.

It invites intimacy with sensation, emotion, and presence, and a willingness to let that aliveness move through us in connected, grounded ways.

You might be drawn if you’re

• craving more embodiment and aliveness

• longing for deeper connection

• curious about your relational edges

• wanting to explore in a grounded, respectful space

Who is it for

Open to adults of all experience levels—no prior tantra or dance experience needed.

What matters most is your willingness to be present, listen to your body, and respect the boundaries and humanity of others.

Next week, I’ll be offering a free webinar with the Foundation for Intentional Community, an organization I’ve loved and worked alongside for many years.

For those who feel drawn toward community life—whether you’re just beginning to explore or actively searching—this session offers a starting place.

We’ll look at how to clarify what you’re truly seeking in community, what you bring to shared life, and how to begin the search in a grounded and realistic way.

Participants will also begin drafting a simple introduction letter to a future community—an exercise that often brings surprising clarity.

Friday, March 13, 2026
1–3pm Eastern (live on Zoom)

The event is free, with optional donations supporting the work of the Foundation for Intentional Community.

If you’re curious about living more closely with others, you’re welcome to join us.

"The Last Ecstatic Days” is a feature documentary film that has captured audiences throughout the world.

Ethan Sisser, a young man afflicted with brain cancer, sits alone in his hospital room. When he begins live-streaming his death journey on social media, thousands of people around the world join him and celebrate his courage.

Still, Ethan envisions more – to teach the world how to die. To honor his final wish of filming his death, his doctor and end-of-life Doula, Aditi Sethi, transports him to a quiet house in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina.

What unfolds next is a story that’s rarely glimpsed: how a community of strangers helps an unhoused man die on his own terms. A sensory immersion into leaving the body, The Last Ecstatic Days reveals a man who will not let us forget him – even after he’s taken his final breath.

Post-screening Discussion:

With Lee Warren & Aditi Sethi

Building the Village (To Live & Die In)

The screening will be followed by what will surely be a riveting audience-driven conversation with two local shape-shifters: Aditi, the Founder/ED of Emberlight/Center for Conscious Living & Dying and visionary Educator, Lee Warren, who focuses on three main areas: Tantra, Death, & Community, as well as the synergy between them.

We’ll explore what it means to create cultures of presence around dying—how we move from isolation to participation, from fear to intimacy, from privatized death to shared humanity.

These are tender and important conversations.
Please join us.
