Hey, I'm Michelle! Cuddle retreats available here in central Virginia in addition to regular cuddle sessions. 😁 Cuddling since early 2018 (Here's my reverb so you can hear my voice
https://record.reverb.chat/s/P9SMhXQ5evkCHE0hMoMu ). 🤗 I am available to host sessions in my home in Palmyra, VA (overnight accommodations are available, even if you're not having an overnight session, and remote working space and WiFi available for before or after if needed). I live in central Virginia, rural enough for peace and quiet, but connected enough for grocery and restaurants nearby. This will be the perfect environment to either get a single cuddle session or to expand to a full self-care retreat for multiple to many nights. 😊 Limited travel may be available to meet elsewhere (details below). Interested, but nervous about making a long trip before meeting for the first time? Free intro phone call, video call, my guarantee, let me know what will help. 😁

I have a deep belief that everyone deserves to feel understood and accepted. For my whole life, people seeking that safe and accepting space have been drawn to me. I love being that person for people. We all have a different story to tell, and we each have reasons behind us being who we are. My being a highly sensitive person (HSP) provides me that special perspective and ability to empathize with the people who feel no one understands them. I have an innate ability to be understanding towards people who most of society judges and I have a habit of being kind to the people most seem to just shove aside.
Beyond feeling understood and accepted, humans as a species need platonic consensual touch. In today’s society, it has become normal to be touch deprived. Touch is only to occur in monogamous relationships. This leaves people who are single with little places to turn, and even puts a strain on people in relationships when their touch needs differ from each other. It’s amazing how much it affects our health just to have routine touch in our lives, and on the flip side, how much we are emotionally affected in a negative way when we lack this regular touch our bodies need.
My focus during the session is your platonic needs (I abide strictly to the code of conduct, offering a purely platonic experience) - conversing (especially on the listening end) or allowing you quiet relaxation, being empathetic, cuddling, and platonic touch as you prefer and enjoy. The common theme and goal throughout the session is comfort, relaxation, and feeling safe and accepted as your true self. 💜 You'll find that a session with me walks that perfect balance in being both authentic (not clinical!) and professional. This work is my passion and purpose and I love hearing people's story, so the authenticity is there, but I am both Cuddlist trained and Cuddle Sanctuary certified, so the knowledge and professionalism are there as well.
I am not fancy - I don't wear makeup, love fitted t-shirts, comfy pants. Love trying all different kinds of food, particularly different cultural food. Hobbies include European board games, tv/movies, listening to music, sitting out on my porch or in my sunroom, and cuddling my pets. 🤗 After working at a desk job in the corporate world for over a decade, I’m thrilled to have found work which speaks to my inner purpose and gives me daily fulfillment in having a positive impact on other people’s days and lives. I can’t wait to help you in your journey towards happiness, relaxation, rejuvenation, connection, and confidence in the value of you!

DISCLAIMERS
It should be obvious on this site, but all physical contact must be entirely platonic. If you attempt to break this rule, the session will immediately end, and no refund will be given. I have no gender or sexuality restrictions - comfortable with men, women, trans, LGBT+ friendly, etc. No alcohol will be consumed during private cuddles. I’m sensitive to some scents, so please limit your use of fragrant products before a cuddling session.
Booking a session with me means you have read the Client Services Contract and agreed to the session rules stated therein.
