The Challenge:
Raising Touch Health & Safe Kids
Hello! My name is DeVika Lyles, M.Ed. I am a Sexologist, Relationship Coach and Somatic Arts Practitioner Certified in the areas of Touch, Consent and Communication. Throughout my training, I have committed my work to creating safe, consensual and non sexual spaces for families to discover touch in ways that leave them connected and in communication with love and affinity.
Currently, I am seeing a rise in children who have experienced touch that was neither consensual or non sexual. If the family has never had active and ongoing conversations about touch or consent, those children can be left confused about who to tell or how to get help for themselves or others.
Research shows that families who openly talk about consent and demonstrate healthy, safe, non sexual touch create spaces where children are empowered to report harm, support others and increase peer relationships now and in the future. While the research is clear, finding support for families may not be. But what if there was an accessible, safe and affordable Course you could take to discover how to keep your family touch healthy & safe?
The Solution: C.U.D.D.L.E.
Sutra
​The C.U.D.D.L.E. Sutra is a Course that combines curated lessons, conversations and experiences that create a safe space for people to discover what they have been taught about touch, communication and consent. In that new space of discovery, participants are given skills and to create new conversations and experiences that they can carry with them into the future.
