The freedom to share caresses — verbal and physical. So many times, we do it only when we're making a sexual advance. That's what we've learned as men. You've experi enced it at bars — afraid of talking to others because of self-doubt. And at dinner par ties and dates. Perhaps even with lovers. Gay and bisexual men can break that tiring old pattern by learning new levels of self esteem — even those who already feel they've mastered it. That's what happens at Connections workshops. The techniques are no secret. In a safe, nurturing environ ment. they totally encourage learning and practicing self-esteem and nonthreatening intimacy. Freedom is the payoff. Freedom to be who you are — and to love who you are, possibly for the first time. New freedom from paralyzing fear of rejection. Wonderful freedom to communicate and interact truthfully, nonjudgmentally. Sample it. Come to an introductory workshop. Two hours of your time. Then judge whether a Connections weekend can make a profound difference in your life. Introduction to CONNECTIONS workshops: Mondays. 7:30 p.m. Level 1 (no nudity): Dec. 13-14. Level 2 (some nudity): Dec. 5-6-7. For price and registration details, call Clay Felts. 704/553-0735.
