Bridges to another life
Exponentially accelerating technology, population and development imply that the vast majority of all technological progress has occurred within living memory, yet the basic template for industrial civilization hasn't changed much since Hiroshima. Merely tacking organic food and iPhone apps onto the suburban consumerism of the fifties sells both humanity and technology short. Rather than leaping into the unknown however, or embracing an interested vision, most people rightly stock with what they know, even as it ceases to inspire, or even to make sense. Experimental communities can showcase the possibilities technology and abundance have made available, preparing the disaffected to make a shift from consumerism to more advanced forms of society.

The Myth of Authenticity (& the Truth of Intimacy)
Like an electron that can't be directly observed, our "truth" is a vector at best, a nebulous arrow pointing toward an empty center. Good thing that vector is the evolutionary impulse itself.

EroticHypnotic: Alive and Aligned
Most people think hypnosis is swinging watches and parlor tricks, instead it is a powerful, complementary tool that you can use to explore creative worlds and even facilitate a dramatic healing.

It is possible to shape shift, time travel, change your age or status, safely feel fire, and even go against the laws of physics. Are you Captain F*cking America, a pink purring sexy kitten, or galavanting in Medieval times wielding your sword while riding a Pegasus? Yes! Anything is possible here! Through Hypnosis we can travel far out into imaginary places, safely remove emotional blockages, as well as shift negative patterns and limiting beliefs that prevent our clients from having the intimate lives that they crave. *Learn how and why Hypnosis is so effective in exploring kink, sensation play and more *Learn history & practical uses for Hypnosis *Learn how the mind sabotages the best goals and desires *Get a small taste of what Hypnosis is like and let’s meet come face to face with your inner most juicy and alive sensual self!

Leadership: The Four Faces of Incorruptible Power
In order to live in a world without war we must first heal the war between the sexes. It is time for feminine power and leadership to rise and join a healthy, incorruptible masculine. Where are the positive archetypes of feminine power? Kali, who cuts off your head? Hera, who is the god form of holly homemaker: basically “Zeus’ wife” with a goddess-sized jealous streak? Wonder Woman, who battles evil but has no family and no love in her life? It’s time for us to tell a new story of femininity, with our choices, with our self-expression, and with our lives. There are too few positive examples of women who are in full command of their sexuality and its attractive powers. There are too few healthy stories of women who’s full creative expression is unbridled and uncontrolled. There are too few healthy stories of men who are powerful without creating harm and violence . There are too few healthy stories of men who create win-win instead of win-lose. Learn how to harness the feminine forms and masculine forms of power in each of your interactions and become a true manifestor - brining your highest vision into reality through your being, your words, and your actions.You will learn an unforgettable map of your own sources of power, some of which have been lying dormant for your entire life. Once you can locate and allow all four faces of incorruptible power to move through you, you can lead, inspire, and serve almost anyone. For Men and Women who want to bring their full spiritual presence into the material world and be the bridge between our present reality and the future vision only you can see.

The Evolutionary Psychology of Polyamory
Are human naturally monogamous or promiscuous? Neither view makes sense given what we've learned about human sexual psychology in the last couple of decades. Most of us seem to have evolved over the last million years to be polyamorous by nature. But we are socialized into monogamist mating norms that amplify sexual jealousy, reduce compersion, stifle our sexual sovereignty, and limit the social networks that we instinctively try to build through lovers and metamours. In this talk, a leading evolutionary psychology professor (author of 'The Mating Mind', 'Spent', and 'Mate') will give a quick, fun overview of the new science behind poly. Then we'll have a Q&A.

True Love: Beyond Power, Status & Sexuality
“Everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power.” Oscar Wilde's words have great explanatory and predictive power, but I'm curious about the limits of this model.

Come explore these themes: -How does power & sexuality constrain or inspire intimacy? -What's the relationship between fear, control & sex -Influence & immortality -the ultimate power -Can a conscious partnership creatively co-op our need for control? -Could True Love offer a map through the power struggle? -Why we fuck?

Camp To CampUS
There are more than 50 million innocent displaced people that had to flee for war, poverty, injustice or climate change. The average stay of a refugee in a camp is 17 years. Since WWII the hosting and management of a refugee community in such camps has not changed. Till the day of today refugee camps are harsh survival environments where people risk exploitation, are hopeless and rules of the strongest apply. After being involved in the epicenter of the refugee crisis on the Greek island of Lesvos I came to the knowledge that there is such a big difference to be made in this global issue if we would stop seeing refugees, victims of injustice. Instead we should approach them as individuals with talents, opportunities equal to our own standards and with the same needs. We should be aware that if we would invest in people that have lost everything this investment will be returned to us in gratefulness and willingness to contribute in their own succes. You get what you give... In creating communities that thrive you should start with environments that inspire. On Lesbos, the epicenter of the refugee crisis in Europe last year, I witnessed the similarities in dynamics between hosting refugees on a refugee camp and hosting a crowd on a music festival. We believe many insights from the festival industry can be integrated to redefine a refugee camp from a Spartan fashionlike environment to an inspiring festivallike experience. Adding to the festival game innovative solutions/companies, educational programs and integration of the refugee community in the management and self-sustainability of their camp will create an environment of harmony and dignity that will be an example in how to change a global issue into an opportunity that can serve humanity on a global scale. Join me in this quest to redefine the global concept of a refugee camp to a campUS.

Life-Force Dynamic: An Exploration of Human Energy
An introduction to human energetic system and how the ancient mystical traditions of India, China, and Europe interweave to create the foundational elements for an integral spiritual practice - the control of the human vessel through postures (asana) + breath control (pranayama) + mental focus (mantra). Includes 2-hour physical practice of Qigong & Yoga that will prepare you for the burn. There will be an explanation of Traditional Indian Medicine (Yoga/Ayurveda) and Traditional Chinese Medicine (Qi Gong/Taoism), two ancient healing systems over 2000 years old. There will be an exploration on the difference between the Indian Hinduism (Polytheistic) & Chinese Taoism (Monotheistic) theories and how we can integrate these two philosophies into our daily spiritual practice to empower ourselves. The discussion will then be followed by a 2 hour Yoga & Qi Gong class which will blend together the elements of ancient India (Yoga) and China (Qi Gong) to provide a dynamic moving meditation focused on providing a balance of both Yang (active) and Yin (passive) elements, that will conclude with a healing Yoga Nidra (conscious deep sleep) meditation - leaving you empowered, focused, and energized - ready for the burn and the new year.

Merkabah Activation Session
Merkabah activation is a 3000 years old breathing technique that allows to open a portal in our heart chakra. This will bring us to feel the vibrations and the energy of the universe. The intensity of the technique depends on the person, ranging from an incredible feeling of ecstasy, until space and time journeys. Being a technique that connects with the inner and higher self, it will also allows to experience breakthroughs, get answers about our lives, solve problems that we didn't even know to have. The more open to receive love and the more open minded we will be, the more we will get from this practice. The technique is as powerful as magical. Almost everybody that have experienced it, described it as mind blowing, many as life changing, some others as the most powerful moment of their life.

The Four Faces Of Incorruptible Personal Power
Where are the positive archetypes of feminine power? Kali, who cuts off your head? Hera, who is the god form of holly homemaker: basically “Zeus’ wife” with a goddess-sized jealous streak? Wonder Woman, who battles evil but has no family and no love in her life? It’s time for us to tell a new story of femininity, with our choices, with our self-expression, and with our lives. There are too few positive examples of women who are in full command of their sexuality and its attractive powers. There are too few healthy stories of women who’s full creative expression is unbridled and uncontrolled. Learn how to harness the dual feminine forms and dual masculine forms of power in each of your interactions and become a true manifestor - brining your highest vision into reality through your being, your words, and your actions.You will learn an unforgettable map of your own sources of power, some of which have been lying dormant for your entire life. Once you can locate and allow all four faces of incorruptible power to move through you, you can lead, inspire, and serve almost anyone. For Men and Women who want to bring their full spiritual presence into the material world and be the bridge between our present reality and the future vision only you can see."

Men's Authentic Personal Expression
I am a woman who has focused herself over the last year on providing empowerment to already successful male entrepreneurs and thought leaders, supporting the purity of what legacy they leave behind by helping them with everything from how they deliver who they are to the world, to working out their heart and personal logistics, I have developed the "50 Points of Attractiveness" and tested it to success. I have 18 years coaching authentic self-expression, including 4 TEDx talks. 22 years studying people / human interaction via songwriting (and expressing my findings artfully). 28 years as a performer in various capacities, especially singing. In my career I've presented music and talks for over 100,000 people. Also, I've spent the last full year doing a deep dive into femininity/polarity studies. I am an advocate for men being empowered (especially as women claim their power more and more), and attaining the capacity to leave legacies. This includes knowing how to navigate matters of the heart. Overall, I really LOVE showing men how to feel happy and free professionally, publicly, and personally by learning how to express themselves authentically. So much of this revolves around a man's ability to limit drama and distraction in his life.

Transcending Shame, Guilt & Envy
There are many things you 'could' do, but there's nothing you 'should' do. I suspect there's no such thing as a 'should'. A should is a 'could' with shame smuggled on top of it. Come explore shame and its cousins: guilt, envy, anger and jealousy. All these emotions have one thing in common, they usually hide their tracks and are hard to admit. Learn to transcend your shame with cutting edge subjective tools. We'll investigate the nature of shame & shaming, look at the adaptive advantages of them and how they serve & do not serve our development. Join love coach Annie Lalla for some powerful exercises that will help you move beyond past shames and show you how desist from laying down new ones. This is a forum to discuss how to experience our emotions, especially the difficult ones, so they stop haunting your psyche. You will leave shameless or at least shamelessly.

Activating Your Creative Feminine Magic
This workshop is about working with the magical, creative energy of Burning Man to create a plan-of-action to bring your unique offering to the world. When you are holding onto your creative expression, your gifts, your particular genius, or pretending not to know what it is, it's gets very uncomfortable after a while. It will start itching inside of you to be created in physical form, it's deepest desire is to be born out of the dream space. You came to Planet Earth to share this, now is your time. Calling all healers, conversation-starters, rebels, light-workers, and medicine women. This workshop is broken down into four magical sections. 1) Connection. How relating to others is the number one function of your business or passion project. We begin the workshop with getting connected on the soul level to your fellow sisters. 2) Reclaiming Your Unique Brilliance. Refining your message and creating something in the world that is unique, contributive, and that people will pay for. 3) Healing Your Relationship With Money. Girl, if you want to start or expand your business, you've got to look at your drama and trauma with money. What would it be like if money flowed to you with ease? What would it be like if you could actually receive it? We will dive into this exploration together. 4) Closing Ritual. Our closing ritual will include a beautiful ceremony to hold each others intentions and desires as we go create in the world. You will be let into a "light-share" experience.
