your cuddle therapy in berlin
Professional cuddling means platonic touch and my undivided, unconditional attention. I accept you as you are, entirely and independent of your situation and way of life as well as your identity and orientation.
Cuddling means nurturing your natural need for touch.
The physical closeness gives us security, inner peace, self-confidence, a feeling of joy and a lot of energy and confidence. Cuddling strengthens our body awareness. It increases the ability to accept and love oneself and others. This can lead to:
Touch produces oxytocin in the body, the so-called cuddle hormone, and reduces cortisol, the stress hormone. Cuddling can therefore result in astonishing positive changes:
It is a service that includes my unconditional and undivided attention as well as platonic non-targeted and intuitive touching with each other. Practically like cuddling between platonic friends, where you are completely taking part and determine what happens within the given rules.
If this is your first cuddle session, I will send you the cuddle agreement with the rules and terms and conditions beforehand, which we will both sign on arrival as it forms the basis of our time together. This also includes a small health questionnaire, which I will ask you to fill out and sign on site.Please pay in cash if you have not already transferred the fee in advance.
You can get changed and freshen up at the premises. We will briefly discuss your wishes and clarify any questions you may have. We can make ourselves comfortable on the sofa or in the cuddle corner, then cuddle or do the things you would like, as long as they are within the scope of the agreement. After 50 minutes it is time to come back to the here and now, change your clothes and say goodbye.
If it is a follow-up session, the first 10 minutes are reserved for arriving and changing, then the remaining 50 minutes we cuddle.
Please only come for a cuddle session if you feel mentally up to it and you do not currently have a cold, corona or any other contagious disease that could be transmitted during a cuddle session. We are getting very close. Therefore, please do not have any intrusive or unpleasant body odours. Don’t be sweaty, have bad breath, smoke prior to the session, or wear strong perfume or aftershave.
If necessary, you can freshen up or brush your teeth before the cuddle session but this will be included in the cuddle time. Bring comfortable and longer clothes (e.g. long-sleeved shirt or t-shirt and jogging trousers). You can change onsite. The cuddle sessions always take part according to the current Corona regulations. I am fully vaccinated.
The cuddle sessions usually take place in the rooms of berlin cuddles in Prenzlauer Berg/ Friedrichshain. The cuddle corner is very spacious with a lounging area of 280cm x 180cm in a very quiet room. When the weather is nice, we can also cuddle on the balcony, which is protected from view.
It is also possible to cuddle in a park or in your own home. For outside appointments or home visits, a flat fee is charged for travel to and from the location: for each 15 min = 5 euros.
The cuddle time is there for you to feel at ease. If this is not the case, speak up at any time! Then we can make you feel comfortable again and we can continue cuddling. If not, once the first cuddle session has started, it is possible to end it within the first 10 mins with a full refund. If the cuddle session is cancelled by you at a later time, the entire session must be paid for.
I am also free to refuse a cuddle session in advance or to cancel it during the session, should the necessary conditions not be met, or if the rules are not respected. If the cuddle session is not carried out or cancelled by me for personal reasons, you will get a full refund.
I am Meike, a trained and certified cuddle therapist and mediator with advanced knowledge of non-violent communication and mindfulness. I have many years of professional experience working with people in challenging and conflictual life situations. I was a trainer for mediators and led seminars on communication and conflict management. As a social scientist, I have worked in peace and conflict research.
It has always been my ambition to see a meaning in my profession and to make my solidary contribution to society. Cuddling is fun for me and fills me with satisfaction. I am deeply convinced that everyone needs and is entitled to loving touch and I am very happy to make my contribution to this with my work.
I await you with an open and cheerful smile. I am empathic and attentive to you, your needs and your wishes. You only need to take. You do not have to do anything or meet any supposed expectations. You can show yourself in your being and essence, just as you are, and you will be completely accepted by me. You are welcome, regardless of your cultural or socio-economic background as well as your sexual orientation and identity. You will be seen and held by me and for the time being, you can forget about the world outside and just enjoy the moment.
Cuddling with me can be very quiet and nurturing or wild and energetic. Quiet or loud. With more physical distance or very close. We find what feels right and pleasant for you in this moment.
For my first cuddling session Meike and her dog Bo welcomed me in their warming home that immediately felt like a safe space. Meike's soft and loving energy left me feeling content and deeply relaxed after a stressful work week.”
