Creating a safe and inclusive space relies on respecting consent and practicing healthy boundaries, especially during partnered exercises. Your comfort is what matters most, and it’s perfectly acceptable to opt out of any activity that doesn’t align with your comfort level.

Consent revolves around clear communication, mutual understanding, and respecting others’ boundaries without assumptions. Always check in with someone before touching them, including giving a hug. Do not make assumptions, always ask before engaging someone in any activity. Consent works best when all parties involved are clear in their communication, which includes making requests, expressing boundaries, and negotiating.

Listen to your body’s cues; it often signals your true feelings towards a request. Pausing and tuning into how your body feels when asked to participate in something is a practice known as embodied consent. This method is incredibly useful for checking in with your boundaries. Your body knows the answer if you slow down and give yourself time to feel into your response.

Please respect someone’s ‘no’ when they decline an invitation and thank them for being honest. This means they are looking out for themselves, and that should be celebrated. Throughout the day, prioritise what feels right for you, and honour your own needs and boundaries.

At the Imagination Workshop Festival, you have complete autonomy and sovereignty over what you choose to participate in, or not. It’s important for you to know that you are in full control of your experience. Whether it’s this specific workshop or any activity throughout the day, you have the freedom to sit out or leave if you feel the need.

Before deciding to leave, I encourage you to ask yourself this question: “Am I leaving because my body is truly telling me this isn’t right for me, or am I feeling uncomfortable because this is new and a bit scary? Could staying be really beneficial for me?” This self-reflection can help you discern whether stepping out is the best choice or if embracing the discomfort could lead to valuable growth and learning.

When I was first learning to tune into what my body wanted around boundaries, I found it challenging to decipher what was a hard boundary and what was simply pushing against my comfort zone. Often, if I leaned in a little, it could be beneficial for me. In the beginning, when I felt this uncertainty, I would inform my partner in a partnered exercise about my confusion. I would express that I was unsure whether it was a boundary or just fear of something new, and ask if we could try it for 30 seconds to a minute with permission to say no at the end of that time if needed. This approach allowed me to feel safe to try, and more often than not, it helped me relax into the experience and realise that I did actually want to participate, though not always, of course.

Your well-being is our priority, and we support you in making choices that honour your personal boundaries and comfort.

24/06/2024

My journey from s3xual shame and guilt to s3xual empowerment has been transformative. For years, I held myself back, burdened by societal judgments and internalised shame. Attending s3x-positive workshops, like those offered at the Imagination Workshop Festival, has been pivotal in peeling away these layers of shame piece by piece. These workshops provided a safe and supportive space to explore my s3xuality, challenge my preconceptions, and embrace my desires without fear or guilt.

Some of the facilitators at these workshops have had a profound impact on my growth. Through their guidance, I’ve become more confident, developed strong boundaries, and evolved into a person who openly asks for what they want. I’ve learned to tune into my body and understand my desires in both sen$ual and er0tic experiences. Crucially, I’ve come to realise the importance of connection in s3xual experiences, which has deepened my intimacy and pleasure. These experiences have also allowed me to reclaim my queerness, after growing up in a country town where same-s3x couples were not modeled, creating feelings of being wrong and more shame. Giddy Garden has chosen to run the Imagination Workshop Festival to help spread this important work, build a s3x-positive community, and support others on their own journeys of s3xual self-discovery.

At Imagination we invite you to leave your judgments and expectations at the door. Approaching the weekend with an open heart and mind allows you to fully immerse yourself in the experience, free from preconceived notions or pressures. By doing so, you create space for genuine connection, authentic expression, and transformative growth. When we let go of the need to control outcomes or judge ourselves and others, we open up to the magic of the moment and the possibilities it holds.

Coming to the festival without judgments and expectations can significantly enhance your experience. You’ll find yourself more present and engaged, able to appreciate the beauty in spontaneity and the richness of diverse interactions. This openness cultivates a deeper sense of belonging and community, as everyone is free to be their true selves. By embracing this mindset, you not only enrich your own journey but also contribute to a more inclusive, supportive, and vibrant festival atmosphere. Join us in creating a space where everyone feels welcome and empowered to explore, play, and grow together.

20/06/2024

We wanted to share an interview with our organisers and ask some authentic relating questions to help you get to know the Giddy Garden team better. Here are Eri’s answers:

1. What do you feel most vulnerable about?

Sharing my successes and passions is challenging for me. These days, I find it easier to open up about my struggles and mental health than to showcase my creative work or passions. That feels really brave and vulnerable to me.

2. When do you feel you can surrender yourself completely?

Being with my chosen family and tribe, where I can relax and be myself, knowing I am supported by the wonderful people around me. We have authentic, deep conversations or get silly together, rather than just engaging in small talk. I'm not the best at small talk.

3. What makes you feel aligned with your values?

I feel most aligned with my values when I choose activities, experiences, and social events that involve play, connection, creativity, or growth, especially when they incorporate all these elements together.

4. What is a belief that has slowed you down and held you back in life?

The belief that perfectionism is a good thing has held me back. It created unrealistic expectations and unattainable goals, leading to stress, anxiety, and fear of failure. I often don't finish things because they're not 'good enough,' and I'm overly critical of my work. Though it's still a factor sometimes, I've learned to aim for 75%, which often yields better results in less time. Reading 'Re-inventing Your Life' on schema therapy, recommended by a psychologist, provided great tools to combat my perfectionist tendencies.

5. What does your inner critic love to say to you?

My inner critic emerges when I’m tired, stressed, or burnt out, or when I struggle to find compassion and self-love. The usual thoughts are:
'You are not good enough...'
'You are a failure' or 'You will fail at this, what’s the point in trying?'
'You are like a child'
'Why are you so dysfunctional?'"

6. What are 5 things you love about yourself?

1. My playfulness and quirky sense of humor
2. My kindness and passion for helping others
3. My super power empathy
4. My creative brain, which connects random ideas and generates amazing concepts
5. Embracing my uniqueness and the courage to move to the beat of my own drum, even when it's scary

7. What would you be annoyed with if you were dating yourself?

This one feels hard to answer as it is something that I have struggled with and feel shameful about. At the moment I’m all about sharing shame to make it smaller so here goes….
My messiness. I have improved the older I’ve got but I still feel a lot of shame around it. I find it hard finding the time to keep things neat and tidy all the time and don’t think I value it enough. It’s often the thing that gets put off. This is definitely one of those things that I get annoyed with myself over.

8. What would you whisper in the ear of your younger self if you could now?

I would tell myself to embrace all emotions, both painful and joyful. Surrendering to pain actually makes it easier to handle, and each experience will teach you a valuable lesson. To fully experience the spectrum of emotions, you need to feel them all, not just the ones you consider 'positive.' Without feeling pain, you'll limit your emotional range.

Having learned to bottle up my feelings, as this was the norm in my family, I've faced the consequences: anxiety, stress, poor health, and explosive emotions that hurt others and damage relationships. Sharing, feeling and moving through your feelings is crucial for emotional well-being.

9. What is something people often misunderstand about you?

People often think I’m standoffish, but it's more about social anxiety and feeling unlovable than anything else. I can be a bit of a slow burn as it takes me a while to overcome social anxiety. Lately, I've been meeting many new people and have found tools to engage more. Through self-love practices and recognising the love around me, I'm also feeling increasingly loveable which makes me more open.

10. What is something you wish someone had told you about s*x?

That it doesn’t need to be taken so seriously. S*x is fun and playful and can be clunky and experimental. Your body will guide you on what you do and don't want. By holding to your boundaries, s*x becomes even better, and you can achieve what you desire, whatever that may be.

🌟 Embrace Your Inner Child at the Imagination Workshop Festival! 🌟
At the Imagination Workshop Festival, we believe in the power of childlike curiosity and wonder. In the hustle and bustle of adult life, it’s easy to forget the joy of exploring the world with wide-eyed enthusiasm. But it’s this sense of wonder that fuels creativity, connection, and growth.

Why Childlike Curiosity Matters:

🌈 Inspiration: When we approach life with a curious mind, we open ourselves up to new ideas and possibilities.

🪁 Playfulness: Embracing our playful side helps us relax, have fun, and build deeper connections with others.

🌸 Growth: Just like children, when we ask questions and explore, we learn and grow in ways we never imagined.

😄Joy: Experiencing the world with wonder brings a sense of joy and excitement that makes life richer and more fulfilling.

How to Bring Childlike Wonder to the Festival:

⁉️Ask Questions: Be curious about everything. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and explore new ideas.

👧🧒 Play: Engage in the playful activities and games we’ve lined up. Let go of inhibitions and enjoy the moment.

🫀 Connect: Meet new people with an open heart. Approach each interaction with curiosity and a desire to learn.

🗺️ Explore: Dive into workshops and experiences with an adventurous spirit. Try something new and see where it takes you.

Join us in bringing back that sense of childlike wonder and curiosity. Let’s create magical moments together and rediscover the joy of simply being curious.

See you at Imagination! 🌟✨

Authenticity is highly valued at our events. We encourage you to embrace your quirks, express your emotions, talk about real issues, show what makes you unique, and simply be yourself.
Authenticity is something I’ve had to work hard at. I used to be a chameleon, moulding myself to fit different situations and hiding parts of myself that didn’t suit the group. But I always felt a fear of being caught out and a part of me felt uncomfortable and kept saying, ‘Stop trying so hard, just be yourself.’ Faking it was exhausting. I wanted to belong, but I couldn’t achieve that by being someone I wasn’t.

Now that I know who I am, what I like, and what makes me tick, I’ve found people who love and support me for everything I am, even the parts I find hard to love. Belonging and feeling seen and heard is magical.

It’s tomorrow! We are excited about the learning and growth we will have together!

Our 4th and final core value is GROWTH

Giddy Garden holds Growth as one of our core values, infusing every event with opportunities for learning and development. Our aspiration is for every participant to depart from CAMP with a greater curiosity for life, eager to continue their adventure of self-discovery.

As I reflect on my journey from adolescence to the present, I am struck by the profound transformation I've experienced. Each step forward represents a journey of growth and discovery. By nurturing a sense of curiosity, I've cultivated a habit of continuous learning, keeping my mind active and engaged. This ongoing process has gifted me with valuable awareness and insights, facilitating personal evolution and self-discovery.

Through this journey of personal growth, I've come to understand my core values and learned to communicate more effectively from a place of groundedness in my own identity. This improved self-awareness has significantly helped my interpersonal relationships, creating deeper connections with others.

Acquiring new skills and shedding outdated beliefs and habits brings me immense joy, as I uncover passion and purpose along the way. This ongoing process of growth allows me to embrace a more authentic version of myself with each lesson learned, enriching every aspect of my life.

Moreover, growth empowers me to pursue once-unattainable goals with courage and determination, gradually overcoming obstacles.

Let’s learn some new skills together and continue this journey of growth together!

It can help lead to playful exploration, build new neural pathways, unleash our inner children, spark curiosity and act as a catalyst for connection, opening us up to different possibilities and ideas.

What better place to celebrate and harness the magic of creativity than at our upcoming event, CAMP! We aim for creativity to kick in the moment you select your costume, carrying through the day as you unleash your imagination in workshops, games, and exercises.

So, let's unleash our creative superpowers, playfully paint the canvas of our imaginations, and embark on a journey of discovery together. Because when we dare to get a little giddy with our creativity, we unleash our childlike wonder and adventure!

Our 2nd core value is CONNECTION!

Being social creatures, humans are naturally inclined towards connection. The fundamental needs for love and belonging fuel our yearning for interpersonal bonds, intimacy, and integration within a community.

Meeting these needs not only enhances our overall well-being but also leads to a more fulfilling life. A robust support system plays a pivotal role in aiding individuals to navigate challenges with greater ease, resulting in heightened life satisfaction, increased resilience and enhanced mental health.

That’s why cultivating connection stands as a fundamental value at Giddy Garden, guiding our approach to organising events with the intention of nurturing community and forging meaningful connections.

Next up on stage at the CAMP Talent Show is... Milbags Magee!

Introducing Milbags Magee, a seasoned vocalist who has lent her talents to Dane Blacklock & the Preacher’s Daughters for the past eight years. With a voice that resonates with raw honesty and sincerity, she is a soulful singer-songwriter.

Armed with her saxophone, guitar and a loop pedal, she is celebrated for her unconventional yet delightfully versatile musical style. She enjoys combining elements of silly country and heartfelt ballads.

When she's not on stage, she spends her time teaching music at a special needs school one day a week. Her love for spontaneous musical expression extends to her camping adventures, where she's renowned for improvising tunes with friends around the campground, making her an ideal addition for the CAMP talent show.

You may have been lucky enough to see Milbags Magee at the Costume Courtesan Cabaret where she crafted a playful original song about the Lorax. She plans to create a special song tailored to the CAMP theme, perhaps inspired by school camp or nostalgic school days. We can’t wait to hear what she comes up with!�

The first of our 4 core values is PLAY!ďż˝

Emphasizing the significance of play at our events, we strive to revive silliness, joy, games, giggles, and laughter. Our goal is to reintroduce playfulness into the lives of adults who have become consumed by seriousness and the demands of daily life. Recognizing the profound importance of play for our wellbeing, we aim to facilitate its benefits by encouraging playful interaction.

Engaging in play with others brings about a sense of lightheartedness and can break down barriers that hinder genuine connections. While society may suggest that play is reserved for childhood, we believe that the desire to play remains within us, waiting to be rediscovered. Even if you feel you've lost touch with your playful side, it's still there, beneath the surface.

We understand that embracing playfulness can feel vulnerable, but we're here to create a supportive environment where everyone feels at ease to let go and be themselves. It takes courage to embrace silliness, but we're dedicated to making it a comfortable and natural experience for all.

For tickets to our next playful event see the CAMP ticket link in the bio.
