Conscious Dating - Race and Dating

  • 107 Projects

Conscious Dating Co explores what it means to date consciously in a series of panels and workshops. At 107 Projects in April we discuss attraction, racial bias and dating in Australia.

What influences attraction? Is racial bias affecting your dating life? How do you deal with being fetishised? And can we all expand our dating pool by mindfully inspecting our own racial biasses?

Conscious Dating Co founder Kaila Perusco will host a panel discussion with award-winning journalist, documentary filmmaker and host of SBS’s Date My Race, Santilla Chingaipe; writer and equal rights advocate Andy Quan; and applied sociologist Dr Zuleyka Zevallos.

Join us for a fascinating insight into modern dating!

Conscious Dating - Women's Night

  • Abercrombie St Chippendale

A new offering from Conscious Dating Co. We are pleased to announce a series of intimate evenings, focused around what it means to date consciously.

Join us on Wednesday 29th March for an evening with Wholistic Health Practitioner & Sacred Sexuality Educator Thais Santos of Vida Healing Within and Psychologist & Sexuality Specialist Celeste Jahn.

Thais will guide us through a tantric meditation workshop and teach tecnhiques to enhance your own sexuality and connect to your heart space. If you think tantra and your mind goes to karma sutra - well, Thais will show you the true meaning of tantra! This workshop is not focused on sex tips, and has nothing to do with partner work. It’s all about empowering women to get in touch with their sacred sexuality and to listen to their own self, in order to find clarity on what they are looking for in life and love.

Then Conscious Dating's Kaila Perusco will host a discussion with Thais and Celeste, covering: 'How to have a conscious f**k buddy' and 'How to make Tinder work for you'.
We’ll be giving you ideas on how to consciously navigate casual relationships and your feelings around them, and how to empower yourself on dating apps by being clear about what you want and knowing how to ask for it. This will be an open talk, and there will be room for your questions and input.

Ticket price includes tantric meditation workshop, panel and wine on arrival.
