Meditation & Mindfulness Practices
Slow down. Breathe deep. Come home to yourself. My guided meditation sessions blend breathwork, visualization, and presence practices to help you move through emotional turbulence and return to inner stillness. These sessions are perfect for beginners and seasoned practitioners alike, and can be tailored for individuals, couples, or spiritual seekers in alternative lifestyles.
Small Group Workshops & Sacred Circles
These small-group experiences blend soulful education, embodied practice, and intentional dialogue in a safe, affirming space. Whether we’re exploring conscious kink, ethical non-monogamy, trauma-informed boundaries, or emotional release, these circles offer connection beyond the surface. Each workshop is crafted with care and inclusivity for alternative lifestyle communities.
One-on-One Guidance & Mentorship
Step into a space where your story is honored, your questions are welcome, and your truth is never too much. My one-on-one guidance sessions are for individuals navigating the rich complexity of alternative lifestyles—whether you’re exploring kink, ethical non-monogamy, queer identity, power dynamics, or healing through spiritual practice.
These sessions are tailored to your journey and held with deep presence and care. We’ll uncover what’s holding you back, clarify what you’re truly seeking, and gently move toward empowered choices that align with your values, desires, and boundaries.
Professional Cuddling
Reconnect with the healing power of safe, non-sexual platonic touch through professional cuddling. These sessions are grounded in consent, care, and somatic awareness, offering you a sanctuary to feel seen, supported, and embraced just as you are.
Whether you’re navigating grief, stress, chronic illness, or simply craving human closeness, this heart-centered space invites comfort and calm through mindful connection. Cuddling can also provide gentle companionship and emotional ease for those facing end-of-life or terminal illness—bringing warmth, presence, and peace when it’s needed most.
Reiki Energy Work (Usui Reiki II)
Reiki is a deeply restorative form of energy healing that supports physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Using the traditional Usui method, I offer hands-on (or hands-above) sessions that invite your energy system into balance. With intuitive guidance and sacred symbols, each session becomes a ritual of release, renewal, and reconnection—especially powerful for those exploring identity, trauma, or transitions.
Saffron Mai cultivates a nurturing haven where your inner world is honored and embraced. With a trauma-informed lens, she weaves somatic presence, energy attunement, and intuitive attunement into a seamless tapestry of healing. Drawing from a rich background in conscious communities and alternative relationship paths, she facilitates deep emotional release, spiritual alignment, and relational freedom.
Her work is rooted in honoring your autonomy—she fosters a space rich in safety, trust, and mutual respect—so you can explore vulnerability without fear. Saffron gently escorts you through the delicate terrain of grief, identity shifts, and intimacy barriers, holding both your light and shadow with equal care.
In her embrace, transformation is not hurried or forced but unfolds naturally as you reclaim your inner authority. She mirrors your innate resilience and invites embodied self-knowing, supporting you to stand in your wholeness with grounded presence and open-hearted courage.
