Ritual Date Night Offering
Reignite Connection: A Ritual for True Partnership!
We all desire to stay in connection with ourselves and our partners, but modern day life doesn’t set us up for success.
Ritual Date Night is a recorded 90-minute guided experience designed to provide intentional structure, whether you’re exploring solo or with a partner, to help bring the flow into your connection. Simply going on dates doesn’t guarantee true connection. Connection often needs to be nurtured before the planned date even begins. These practices offer a way to do just that.
The practices Lindsay and Sean share are simple yet profoundly impactful: breathing, movement, eye contact, sensation awareness, and thoughtful sharing prompts. These rituals are designed to be easy to revisit, allowing you to return to them time and time again—whether you’re preparing for a date or weaving them into transitional moments throughout your day. By learning these somatic practices, you can integrate connection into your routine, making them your own. Whether you’re nurturing your relationship with yourself or deepening your bond with your love, these practices will guide you back to what truly matters.
Rituals have a clear beginning, middle, and end, creating a container of trust that allows you to fully let go and be held in the experience. Some invitations in Ritual Date Night may feel new or challenging—like a muscle you’re strengthening—but that’s where the magic lies. True connection, whether internal or shared, blossoms through intention.
This offering is about bringing an accessible spark of depth and connection to your moments of presence. In the ebb and flow of relationships—whether with yourself or another—it’s easy to feel lost at times. These simple rituals can be your North Star, a guiding light back to True Partnership with yourself and others.
Bring your curiosity, compassion, and intentionality—and we’ll take care of the rest!

Lindsay is an amazing space holder! She has a natural ability to tune into you and meet you where you are at with no judgement, only love.

I highly recommend working with Lindsay no matter where you are coming from.
Transformational Experience
My partner and I joined RDN (Ritual Date Night) and were deeply touched by it. The opportunity for the two of us to really focus on each other, at home, while being guided by such lovely and alive teachers and people, is simply wonderful. I have loved Lindsay since the EROS retreat (Layla Martin), where she was one of the Agents of Arousal —which I turned into Angels of Arousal. She was there for me in deeply vulnerable moments, and her presence and professional guidance helped me through some...Highly Recommend!
She is so great! Very attuned, grounded, caring, steady, encouraging and powerful. I recommend her to anyone!Support that Transforms and Heals
I had the pleasure of meeting Lindsey during a Tantra retreat, where she served as one of the assistant coaches. After one of the practices, I found myself needing more support to process and move through my feelings. I chose to approach Lindsey for this. From the very start, Lindsey was incredibly approachable, open, and deeply sensitive to my needs. She made me feel completely seen and understood, offering a safe space where I could truly express myself. With her compassionate and loving presence, she guided me through shifting my perspective in a ...Enhance and Tenderly Cultivate Intimacy
Ritual date night was such a delight for me and my husband! We both felt really safe and held by Lindsay and Sean. The practices provided an opportunity for me and my husband to connect more deeply and intentionally. I would definitely recommend this practice for any couple or individual who want to enhance and tenderly cultivate intimacy!Feeling embodied like never before!
I can’t remember what I expected when I started to work with Lindsay. I very quickly had an immense amount of trust for her, and frankly, wanted to feel comfortable in my body the way she did. I’m so grateful I trusted my intuition and booked the package. Unlike the years I’ve spent in therapy, Lindsay had different tools for all the types of issues I experienced. I came to our zooms with frustrations with my boyfriend and our intimacy, resistance in starting my business....New alignment and presence in my daily life!
Working with Lindsay has helped me continually practice bridging the space between my body and my brain. Throughout our sessions I felt more and more fear slough from my entirety. I experienced the building of clarity that brought me to make choices that weren’t only more aligned, but more fruitful for myself and my relationships. Lindsay’s deeper knowing and seeing in our sessions has provided me with sharper discernment and deeper presence in my daily life.A Ritual Date Night to Remember!
Ritual Date Night was an enjoyable and a learning experience. Determining my obstacles and what I desire ( excluding another to provide that for you) was more difficult than I thought. It made me look into myself and really and scan my true feelings. It was valuable for me to think about what I liked about my partner and about myself. Something I should do regularly. Lindsay and Sean were a great team ….enthused, relaxed, sincere ….offering simple, practical yet thought-provoking ideas. “Slow down and...Heartfelt, Attuned, Transformative Presence!
Lindsay staffed the Vita-Eros retreat I recently did. From day one, she was tuned into me. She gave me a whole list of my good qualities that even I wouldn’t have come up with. At the same time, she could see where I was bottled up and holding back. Throughout the retreat, she invited me to loosen up and play. More importantly, her attention made me feel at home in what otherwise could have been an intimidating environment. She did some beautiful energy work...Newfound clarity
Lindsay's questions were like keys that unlocked doors within my mind and body, allowing me to relax and delve deeper into my own thoughts and emotions. After each session, my body felt more attuned to its own intuition. Lindsay's guidance was like a compass, leading me to navigate the complexities of my thoughts and feelings with newfound clarity. Through Lindsay's facilitation, I've gained a deeper understanding of myself, a heightened sense of compassion, and the ability to reframe and rewire the narratives that had held me back. I've seen the truth of my heart ...
