Heart Hold: A Sacred Cuddling Experience

Service Description

In many African cosmologies, connection is not a luxury — it is essential. Touch is not just physical — it is spiritual. It is how we transfer energy, offer blessings, and affirm one another’s presence. It is how we say, I see you. I honour you. You are not alone. From ase — the divine life force in Yoruba tradition — to the practice of anointing, embracing, and laying hands on one another across the diaspora, touch has always been sacred. The Heart Hold is a return to this wisdom. This is a space to be held — with tenderness, presence, and care. To rest in platonic embrace. To feel the softness of another human being offering you their heartbeat, their steadiness, their warmth. You don’t have to say the right thing. You don’t have to carry it alone. You are welcome to simply be. Whether you are grieving, feeling distant from touch, or simply in need of quiet connection — this session meets you where you are. It’s a quiet remembering that you are worthy of closeness, comfort, and care.
