Temple Eden: Sapphic Feast

Temple Eden: Sapphic Feast

For the ones who eat with their whole body.
Sweet, ripe, sensual.

Most of us learned early how to manage an appetite: take the small portion, say you’re fine, wait to be offered, apologise for wanting seconds, until the hunger itself feels like something you should have outgrown.

Sapphic Feast is an Eden temple for people who want to find out what they’re hungry for, whether that’s the slow tasting of something sweet, the ripe and overflowing kind of wanting, or an appetite that you didnt know existed within you. A living inquiry you get to conduct in your own body, on your own terms.

We’ll be welcoming the full range of what a feast can hold, and you get to decide: the sipping and the devouring, the wanting to be fed and the wanting to feed, the lingering over one perfect bite and the reaching across the table for everything. The ritual we’ve built for this temple invites you to locate your own appetite, to taste what’s alive in this particular body on this particular night.

Dress to the theme. Come as the fruit, the feast, the one at the head of the table, or something that doesn’t have a name yet.

The Temple Field

An embodied, sensual Eden temple held in consent, sovereignty, and choice.

**All temples begin with embodied consent and boundaries to connect everyone with themselves, the space, and each other, and is a suitable space for beginners; for those experienced in these spaces this portion will be an opportunity to get in touch with your body on the day and create connection in the shared field.

This is a vulva-only space, held intentionally for people who identify as women, non-binary, or gender-diverse and who have a vulva. It is intentionally held without people who identify as male, non-binary, gender diverse and who have a penis.

This boundary exists to meet specific relational dynamics and safety needs that have been expressed to us by participants in previous temples or workshops around early experiences of sexuality, socialisation around bodies, and sometimes the trauma histories of people with vulvas where there has been particular vulnerability created around penises in intimate spaces, regardless of the gender of the person attached to that penis.

(We understand that this choice does exclude some people who identify as women, and while we recognise that is imperfect, the space is created to meet specific expressed needs as mentioned above. We also hold other spaces that cater to all gender identities.)

Sapphic desire, intimacy, and embodied curiosity are centred here. Solo, partnered, and communal connections are all welcome, and you choose how you move through the space at your own pace and on your own terms.

Rachel (she/her) is a proud Aboriginal woman and trauma-informed psychotherapist, somatic sexologist, and tantrika who works at the intersection of science, spirituality, and sexuality. Living with disability, she brings deep lived experience to her work — honouring the intelligence of the body, the resilience of the nervous system, and the power of erotic expression as a pathway to healing.

With a background in Process-Oriented Psychotherapy, erotic embodiment, and nervous system science, Rachel supports individuals and couples to reconnect with their bodies, desires, and inner truth. Her approach integrates breath, movement, self-pleasure practices, and relational energetics — always grounded in compassion, consent, and respect for each person’s unique pace and story.

Rachel has facilitated immersive workshops and intimacy education, guiding people to return to pleasure, expand their emotional and erotic range, and feel more fully alive. She recently spoke internationally in the United States at a leading Sexual Health event, sharing her work on coming back to pleasure in the body, trauma-informed eroticism, and tantric pathways to aliveness.

Nikkiema (she/her) is a Somatic Sexologist drawn to shadow, sensuality, and embodied transformation. She guides individuals and groups to the edges of experience, holding sacred, consent-rooted spaces where curiosity and presence meet. Through her work, people are invited to reconnect with themselves and others, cultivating self-awareness, embodied aliveness, and a fluid understanding of desire, power, and intimacy.

Blending somatic practices, psychological insight, and the language of the body, Nikkiema illuminates unconscious patterns and supports people in stepping into a fuller, more conscious expression of who they are. She designs experiences that honour both vulnerability and strength, offering a safe space to explore tension, pleasure, and the subtleties of connection. Her approach is playful, provocative, and transformative, where growth is felt as much as understood, and presence becomes a doorway to profound personal insight and erotic freedom.

An Eden Temple

Temple Eden: Sapphic Feast is a space to savour presence, choice, and embodied appetite, sweet and ripe and sensual, with room to take as much or as little as you want.
Nothing needs to culminate in anything. Intimacy with yourself in a held space can be just as potent as anything else on offer.
