SUMMARY:Am I loosing myself?
DESCRIPTION:The Motherhole hosts this gathering. \n\n\n\nIt has three realms: Eros\, Mother and Crone. \n\n\n\nThis is a Crone gathering. \n\n\n\nCrone is not decline. \n\n\n\nIt is not wisdom theatre. \n\n\n\nIt is not graceful ageing. \n\n\n\nCrone is what happens when your body changes faster than your identity can keep up. \n\n\n\nWhen something biological reorganises you before you have language for it. \n\n\n\nTheme of the gathering\n\n\n\nMenopause is not just hot flashes. \n\n\n\nIt is the moment your body stops behaving in a way you recognise. \n\n\n\nYou forget words mid-sentence. \n\n\n\nYou lose your temper in ways that surprise you. \n\n\n\nYou wake at night and your thoughts won’t settle. \n\n\n\nYour tolerance shrinks. \n\n\n\nYour confidence flickers. \n\n\n\nYour body feels unfamiliar in your own clothes. \n\n\n\nYou look competent. \n\n\n\nBut inside something feels unstable. \n\n\n\nAnd beneath all of it is a quiet fear: \n\n\n\nIs this temporary? \n\n\n\nOr am I becoming someone I don’t know? \n\n\n\nThis gathering is for women in perimenopause or menopause who feel cognitively\, emotionally\, or physically altered and were never given real language for what that means. \n\n\n\nNot the inspirational version. \n\n\n\nThe lived one. \n\n\n\nWhat we will do\n\n\n\nThis is a structured\, guided gathering. The focus is articulation. \n\n\n\nWe create a contained space where you can examine what is actually shifting in you. \n\n\n\nYou will write in response to precise prompts. \n\n\n\nYou will reflect before speaking but you will not be speaking your thoughts\, you’ll be voicing those from another in the group. How? Come and find out! All you need to know is that it works\, it’s very liberating and feels extremely safe\,  we promise! \n\n\n\nWe name what feels unstable. \n\n\n\nWe separate biology from identity. \n\n\n\nWe slow down the fear. \n\n\n\nYou do not need to be positive. \n\n\n\nYou do not need to be resilient. \n\n\n\nYou do not need to frame this as empowerment. \n\n\n\nWe begin with what is disorienting. \n\n\n\nThe focus of the evening\n\n\n\nWe explore aspects of menopause that are rarely spoken about directly: \n\n\n\n• brain fog and fear of cognitive decline \n\n\n\n• irritability that strains relationships \n\n\n\n• anxiety that appears without history \n\n\n\n• sleep disruption and emotional volatility \n\n\n\n• the shift in sexual response \n\n\n\n• the loss of previous coping strategies \n\n\n\n• the question of whether this is “just hormones” or something more \n\n\n\nThis is not a medical seminar. \n\n\n\nIt is not a symptom checklist. \n\n\n\nIt is a space to understand how biological transition impacts identity. \n\n\n\nMany high-functioning women feel quietly destabilised during this phase and are told to either manage it medically or celebrate it spiritually. \n\n\n\nNeither approach addresses the psychological shock. \n\n\n\nThis gathering offers a place to name that shock without exaggerating it or minimising it. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole\n\n\n\nThe Motherhole.The first gate.The original opening. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole is the place where life arrives\, where identity fractures\, where something that was once yours becomes a passage for others.And then\, one day\, becomes yours again. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole gatherings are not events. They are encounters.Spaces where women come to speak from inside what actually happened\, and what is happening now. \n\n\n\nNot to be fixed.Not to be guided.Not to be improved.But to be heard. \n\n\n\nEach Motherhole gathering follows a shared method. \n\n\n\nNot because one method fits all\, but because experience needs holding in order to move. \n\n\n\nWe work with words\, bodies\, breath\, and sound.Sometimes with silence.Sometimes with meditation.Sometimes through writing.Sometimes through reading and voicing.Sometimes through movement or stillness.Not everything happens every time. \n\n\n\nBut always a shared speaking at the end. \n\n\n\nNothing is forced.You can speak.You can stay quiet.You can pass.Listening counts.The structure holds the room so experience can move\, without being explained\, fixed\, or turned into a performance. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole has three realms\n\n\n\nErosThe realm of desire.Of appetite.Of what still wants you.Sex. Rage. Hunger. Refusal.The pull toward life that never went quiet.Enter Eros if something in you is awake and restless. \n\n\n\nMotherThe realm of cost.Of responsibility.Of what life required of you.Birth. Care. Loss of self.The moment you became a passage.Enter Mother if your life split in two and never fully rejoined. \n\n\n\nCrone \n\n\n\nThe realm of ownership.Of what you no longer give away.No more passage for life.No more explanation.Menopause. Authority. Clarity.The moment you stop bleeding and start leading yourself. \n\n\n\nRead more at themotherhole.com \n\n\n\nPractical details\n\n\n\n• Time: Doors open at 17.30.

SUMMARY:The Forbidden Want
DESCRIPTION:The Motherhole hosts this gathering. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole has three realms: Eros\, Mother and Crone.This is an Eros gathering. Eros is not sex.It’s the charge that lives underneath language.The pull.The no.The yes that arrives before thought.It’s sensation.It’s appetite.It’s the body remembering itself. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTheme of the gathering\n\n\n\nNot the socially acceptable desire. \n\n\n\nNot the Instagram version. \n\n\n\nNot the “healthy” one. \n\n\n\nThe one you edit out. \n\n\n\nThe one that embarrasses you. \n\n\n\nThe one that contradicts your politics. \n\n\n\nThe one that does not fit your relationship. \n\n\n\nThe one that doesn’t align with who you think you are. \n\n\n\nEvery woman has a desire she does not say out loud. \n\n\n\nSometimes it is sexual. \n\n\n\nSometimes it is relational. \n\n\n\nSometimes it is power. \n\n\n\nSometimes it is escape. \n\n\n\nThis gathering is about meeting that desire without acting on it\, suppressing it\, or dressing it up. \n\n\n\nWe are not here to indulge it. \n\n\n\nWe are here to face it. \n\n\n\nWhat we will do\n\n\n\nThis is a structured\, guided gathering. The focus is articulation. \n\n\n\nWe create a contained space where you can examine the desire you usually censor. \n\n\n\nYou will write in response to precise prompts. \n\n\n\nYou will reflect before speaking but you will not be speaking your thoughts\, you’ll be voicing those from another in the group. How? Come and find out! All you need to know is that it works\, it’s very liberating and feels extremely safe\, we promise! \n\n\n\nNo one reacts. \n\n\n\nNo one advises. \n\n\n\nNo one analyses. \n\n\n\nYou are not required to justify your wanting. \n\n\n\nWe work slowly and precisely. \n\n\n\nWe let the truth exist without consequence. \n\n\n\nThe focus of the evening\n\n\n\nWe explore forms of Eros that are rarely named: \n\n\n\n• desire that feels socially inconvenient \n\n\n\n• desire that disrupts your self-image \n\n\n\n• desire that contradicts your commitments \n\n\n\n• desire that carries shame \n\n\n\n• desire that feels too large \n\n\n\n• desire that feels dangerous \n\n\n\nThis is not about permission. \n\n\n\nIt is about awareness. \n\n\n\nMost women spend enormous energy managing what they want. \n\n\n\nThis gathering offers a way to look directly at it. \n\n\n\nWithout performance. \n\n\n\nWithout panic. \n\n\n\nWithout action. \n\n\n\nJust clarity. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole\n\n\n\nThe Motherhole.The first gate.The original opening. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole is the place where life arrives\, where identity fractures\, where something that was once yours becomes a passage for others.And then\, one day\, becomes yours again. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole gatherings are not events.

SUMMARY:The Drone Temple
DESCRIPTION:This is sound jam + voice lab + open experimental field: A sonic portal night \n\n\n\nA three-hour immersive evening where we build a living sound field together\, using drone tones\, voice textures\, synth loops\, breath rhythms\, and low-frequency vibration. This is not a concert and not a workshop\, it’s a collective sound ritual for those who want to experience music as a speculative technology. \n\n\n\nParticipants are invited to enter the Drone Temple as if entering an alien cathedral. You do not need to be a musician. You just need curiosity\, willingness\, and a body. \n\n\n\nWe begin with a grounding arrival\, then build a slow sonic architecture together\, one layer at a time. Some will hum. Some will play. Some will hold silence like an instrument. The sound becomes the room. \n\n\n\nThe drone becomes a time machine. \n\n\n\nThis salon explores: sound as portal\, vibration as philosophy\, frequency as future language. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFORMAT \n\n\n\n18.00–18.30 Arrival + snacks + tuning into the space \n\n\n\n18.30–19.30 Drone build (group sound layering\, guided) \n\n\n\n19.30–19.45 Break \n\n\n\n19.45–20.45 Deep immersion session (long-form drone journey) \n\n\n\n20.45–21.00 Closing circle + optional reflections (non-therapeutic) \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWHAT WE’LL USE\n\n\n\n    •    synth / drone machine (provided) \n\n\n\n    •    vocal toning \n\n\n\n    •    bowls\, bells\, objects\, weird little instruments \n\n\n\n    •    body percussion \n\n\n\n    •    optional movement inside the sound \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWHO IT’S FOR\n\n\n\nPeople who love: \n\n\n\n    •    experimental sound \n\n\n\n    •    ambient culture \n\n\n\n    •    future trance states \n\n\n\n    •    sensory immersion \n\n\n\n    •    philosophy that lives in the body \n\n\n\nNo musical experience needed. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nABOUT FUTURE ANCESTOR CLUB\n\n\n\nFuture Ancestor Club is a creative gathering space for artists\, writers\, students\, makers\, and curious humans who want to expand their lived experience  of the present moment\, and have fun doing it. \n\n\n\nWe host speculative writing salons\, embodied philosophy nights\, exquisitely weird art classes\, nude drawing sessions\, still life studies\, and conversations that drift into Science-fiction. \n\n\n\nSome sessions are quiet and conceptual. Some are chaotic and collaborative. Sometimes we jam and co-create music. Sometimes we do karaoke with four Bluetooth microphones\, because obviously. \n\n\n\nFuture Ancestor Club is part ateljé\, part salon\, part experiment\, and part cultural portal. \n\n\n\nCome to make things. \n\n\n\nCome to think differently. \n\n\n\nCome to practice being the kind of ancestor you wish yours had been. \n\n\n\nRead more at futureancestorclub.com \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nPRACTICAL DETAILS\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n• 3 hours (including break) \n\n\n\n• Max 15 participants \n\n\n\n• Snacks and drinks included \n\n\n\n• Location: Sensual Institute\, Tavastgatan 43\, 118 24 Stockholm \n\n\n\n• Space holder: Peo Bengtsson\, musical anarchist\, lover of Magic and Myth.

SUMMARY:The split
DESCRIPTION:The Motherhole hosts this gathering. It has three realms: Eros\, Mother and Crone. \n\n\n\nThis is a Mother gathering. \n\n\n\nMother is not an identity you add. \n\n\n\nIt is a rearrangement. \n\n\n\nYour body rearranges. \n\n\n\nYour time rearranges. \n\n\n\nYour relationships rearrange. \n\n\n\nAnd sometimes your loyalty rearranges too. \n\n\n\nMother is not only love. \n\n\n\nIt is conflict. \n\n\n\nTheme of the gathering\n\n\n\nThere is a moment in motherhood no one prepares you for. \n\n\n\nWhen you realise you cannot be everything at once. \n\n\n\nNot fully mother. \n\n\n\nNot fully partner. \n\n\n\nNot fully yourself. \n\n\n\nSomething splits. \n\n\n\nYou love your child. \n\n\n\nAnd you miss your life. \n\n\n\nYou show up. \n\n\n\nAnd you fantasise about leaving. \n\n\n\nYou are devoted. \n\n\n\nAnd you are resentful. \n\n\n\nBoth are true. \n\n\n\nThis gathering is for women who feel divided inside motherhood. \n\n\n\nNot burnt out. \n\n\n\nDivided. \n\n\n\nPulled between who you were and who you are required to be. \n\n\n\nPulled between responsibility and desire. \n\n\n\nPulled between closeness and suffocation. \n\n\n\nWe are not here to resolve the split. \n\n\n\nWe are here to look at it without pretending it doesn’t exist. \n\n\n\nWhat we will do\n\n\n\nThis is a structured\, guided gathering. The focus is articulation. \n\n\n\nWe create a contained space where you can examine the internal conflicts that motherhood brought into your life. \n\n\n\nYou will write in response to precise prompts. \n\n\n\nYou will reflect before speaking but you will not be speaking your thoughts\, you’ll be voicing those from another in the group. How? Come and find out! All you need to know is that it works\, it’s very liberating and feels extremely safe\, we promise! \n\n\n\nYou do not need to defend your love. \n\n\n\nYou do not need to apologise for your frustration. \n\n\n\nYou do not need to justify wanting space. \n\n\n\nWe hold complexity without simplifying it. \n\n\n\nNo fixing. \n\n\n\nNo advice. \n\n\n\nNo comparison. \n\n\n\nJust women speaking from inside the split. \n\n\n\nThe focus of the evening\n\n\n\nWe explore parts of motherhood that are rarely spoken about directly: \n\n\n\n• loving your child and missing your old self \n\n\n\n• resentment that coexists with devotion \n\n\n\n• sexual withdrawal after becoming a mother \n\n\n\n• the strain on partnership \n\n\n\n• the fantasy of escape \n\n\n\n• the pressure to feel fulfilled \n\n\n\n• the quiet fear that you made the wrong choice \n\n\n\nThis is not about being a good mother. \n\n\n\nIt is about being a whole woman. \n\n\n\nMany women carry the split in silence because they believe admitting it makes them ungrateful or unstable. \n\n\n\nThis gathering offers a space where contradiction is allowed. \n\n\n\nWhere devotion and doubt can sit in the same body. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole\n\n\n\nThe Motherhole.The first gate.The original opening. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole is the place where life arrives\, where identity fractures\, where something that was once yours becomes a passage for others.And then\, one day\, becomes yours again. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole gatherings are not events. They are encounters.Spaces where women come to speak from inside what actually happened\, and what is happening now. \n\n\n\nNot to be fixed.Not to be guided.Not to be improved.But to be heard. \n\n\n\nEach Motherhole gathering follows a shared method. \n\n\n\nNot because one method fits all\, but because experience needs holding in order to move. \n\n\n\nWe work with words\, bodies\, breath\, and sound.Sometimes with silence.Sometimes with meditation.Sometimes through writing.Sometimes through reading and voicing.Sometimes through movement or stillness.Not everything happens every time. \n\n\n\nBut always a shared speaking at the end. \n\n\n\nNothing is forced.You can speak.You can stay quiet.You can pass.Listening counts.The structure holds the room so experience can move\, without being explained\, fixed\, or turned into a performance. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole has three realms\n\n\n\nErosThe realm of desire.Of appetite.Of what still wants you.Sex.

SUMMARY:The end of bleeding is the beginning
DESCRIPTION:The Motherhole hosts this gathering. It has three realms: Eros\, Mother and Crone.This is a Crone gathering.  \n\n\n\nCrone is not age. It is not bitterness. It is not decline. Crone is ownership. \n\n\n\nThe moment the body stops being a passage for others and returns to you. \n\n\n\nThis is not the end. This is the release. \n\n\n\nMenopause is not a loss of power. It’s the end of leaking it. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTheme of the gathering\n\n\n\nMenopause is not a medical event. \n\n\n\nIt is a biological transition. \n\n\n\nAnd in the modern Western world\, it can feel like a quiet form of disappearance. \n\n\n\nSomething is shifting in you\, and no one is describing it in a way that feels accurate. \n\n\n\nOr hopeful. \n\n\n\nYour body feels unfamiliar. \n\n\n\nYour tolerance is shorter. \n\n\n\nYour patience thinner. \n\n\n\nYour emotions don’t move the way they used to. \n\n\n\nAnd beneath it all there may be a quiet question: \n\n\n\nWhat exactly is leaving? \n\n\n\nAnd what\, if anything\, is arriving? \n\n\n\nMany women move through menopause feeling disoriented\, irritated\, grieving\, relieved\, and unsettled at the same time. \n\n\n\nYou are told it is either a problem to manage or a spiritual upgrade to celebrate. \n\n\n\nNeither description quite fits. \n\n\n\nWe begin where you actually are. \n\n\n\nThis gathering is for women in menopause who feel the shift clearly\, but were never given language for what it means. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWhat we will do\n\n\n\nThis is a structured\, guided gathering. The focus is articulation. \n\n\n\nWe are holding a shared space in which you can examine what menopause is actually doing to your body\, your emotional range\, your tolerance\, and your sense of self. \n\n\n\nYou will write in response to precise prompts. \n\n\n\nYou will reflect before speaking but you will not be speaking your thoughts\, you’ll be voicing those from another in the group. How? Come and find out! All you need to know is that it works\, it’s very liberating and feels extremely safe\,  we promise! \n\n\n\nYou do not need to prepare anything. \n\n\n\nYou do not need to be optimistic. \n\n\n\nYou do not need to “accept” anything before you arrive. \n\n\n\nWe start with what is true now. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe focus of the evening\n\n\n\nWe explore aspects of menopause that are rarely spoken about directly: \n\n\n\n• the body that no longer responds the way it used to \n\n\n\n• the shortening of patience and tolerance \n\n\n\n• the grief that arrives without clear permission \n\n\n\n• the relief that feels complicated \n\n\n\n• the fear of losing something unnamed \n\n\n\n• the sharpening of boundaries \n\n\n\nThis is not about symptom management. \n\n\n\nIt is about orientation. \n\n\n\nMany women sense that something fundamental has reorganised\, but were never given language for it. \n\n\n\nThis gathering offers a way to slow down and name what is already happening. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole\n\n\n\nThe Motherhole.The first gate.The original opening. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole is the place where life arrives\, where identity fractures\, where something that was once yours becomes a passage for others.And then\, one day\, becomes yours again. \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole gatherings are not events. They are encounters.Spaces where women come to speak from inside what actually happened\, and what is happening now. \n\n\n\nNot to be fixed.Not to be guided.Not to be improved.But to be heard. \n\n\n\nEach Motherhole gathering follows a shared method. \n\n\n\nNot because one method fits all\, but because experience needs holding in order to move. \n\n\n\nWe work with words\, bodies\, breath\, and sound.Sometimes with silence.Sometimes with meditation.Sometimes through writing.Sometimes through reading and voicing.Sometimes through movement or stillness.Not everything happens every time. \n\n\n\nBut always a shared speaking at the end. \n\n\n\nNothing is forced.You can speak.You can stay quiet.You can pass.Listening counts.The structure holds the room so experience can move\, without being explained\, fixed\, or turned into a performance. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Motherhole has three realms\n\n\n\nErosThe realm of desire.Of appetite.Of what still wants you.Sex. Rage. Hunger. Refusal.The pull toward life that never went quiet.Enter Eros if something in you is awake and restless. \n\n\n\nMotherThe realm of cost.Of responsibility.Of what life required of you.Birth. Care. Loss of self.The moment you became a passage.Enter Mother if your life split in two and never fully rejoined. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nCrone \n\n\n\nThe realm of ownership.Of what you no longer give away.No more passage for life.No more explanation.Menopause. Authority. Clarity.The moment you stop bleeding and start leading yourself. \n\n\n\nRead more at themotherhole.com \n\n\n\nDetails\n\n\n\n• 3 hours (including break) \n\n\n\n• Time: Doors open at 17.30.

SUMMARY:The Energetics of Dominance and Submission through Rope
DESCRIPTION:Adonam of Dojo Yorokobi invites you to this workshop. You’ll explore dominance and submission as energetic forces\, focusing on polarity and energetic principles. Drawing inspiration from tantric perspectives on energy and connection\, as well as Shibari as an art form and practice\, we use rope as a medium to amplify the subtle dynamics that can arise between two people. The rope can transform bondage from a purely mechanical act into a charged and magnetic exchange. The aim is to create more life\, depth\, and energetic dialogue in rope sessions\, rather than focusing solely on technique. \n\n\n\nIn many rope sessions\, attention easily falls on patterns\, precision\, and the next knot. Here\, we instead direct our focus to what moves beneath the surface – the energy\, intention\, and dynamics between two people in the rope. We explore how energetic principles can take form through rope and how they affect the experience of tying and being tied. \n\n\n\nThrough exploratory exercises\, we work with polarities such as leading and following\, dominance and submission\, giving and receiving\, taking and being taken. We examine how these dynamics can be felt in the body and how they can be amplified through tempo\, presence\, direction\, and intention in the rope. \n\n\n\nThe goal of the workshop is for participants to feel more comfortable expressing and engaging with dominance and submission through rope. By working with energetic principles and relational dynamics\, we explore how these qualities can become a natural part of a rope session\, so that the rope not only binds the body but also conveys intention\, presence\, and energy between partners. \n\n\n\nThe workshop focuses on the relational dynamics between partners and on how rope can be used as a language for dominance\, submission\, and polarity. It is suitable for both beginners and more experienced practitioners who want to deepen their exploration beyond the technical aspects and develop a more alive and dynamic way of working with rope. \n\n\n\nPractical details\n\n\n\n• Time: Doors open at 9.30. Come early to land in the space\, 10:00–17:00\, including a lunch break• Length: 7 hours• Group size: Maximum 10 participants• Location: Sensual Institute\, Tavastgatan 43\, 118 24 Stockholm• Price: 1800 SEK per pair• Snacks and drinks included \n\n\n\nAbout the space holder\n\n\n\nAdonam has practiced Shibari since 2015\, but was in contact with rope even earlier\, through a more Western approach. He appreciates rope for its aesthetics and the way he can influence the person he ties by varying tempo and intensity. He enjoys creating sculptures with the bodies he ties\, and as a hobby photographer\, he often captures these creations. \n\n\n\nWhat Adonam wants to teach is both how to make safe ties adapted to the body you are tying\, and how to influence the person you tie to create different feelings and sensations. He places great emphasis on safety and two-way communication to ensure consent and respect for boundaries. \n\n\n\nAwakeatnight_ discovered Shibari in fall 2023 and immediately felt how the ropes called to her body\, long before she was even tied. She loves exploring her inner world\, and through Shibari\, the body can express feelings and parts of herself that are otherwise difficult to reach. As a model\, she appreciates how the ropes allow her to go on intense emotional journeys\, feel the shape of her body\, experience awakened emotions\, and explore the dynamics and connection that arise between her and the rigger. For her\, these expressions are both symbolic and liberating\, and the ropes serve as a way to make the inner world visible and alive. \n\n\n\nVisit the YOROKOBI website for more information yorokobi.nu \n\n\n\nGood to know\n\n\n\n• Dress as you like  \n\n\n\n• Queer friendly  \n\n\n\n• Neurospicy friendly \n\n\n\nBooking & pricing\n\n\n\n1800 kr per pair \n\n\n\n\n\nif you feel called but cannot afford it right now pls reach out and we’ll figure something out!  \n\n\n\n• Bookings are non-refundable\, but transferable \n\n\n1800\,00 kr\n					\n				Add to cart
