Non-monogamy for beginners (EN)

Let's talk about ethical non-monogamy!

What good things does opening up your relationship bring, and what difficulties might you encounter? Is it a dream, a potential drama, or something that can really work?

This evening wants to give you a taste of all the potential ways and shapes that non-monogamy can take. And give the start of a compass to navigate your path.

• For people who are curious and want to know if it would appeal to them.
• For people who are actually hesitant, but also want to know what it is all about. 
• For people who find it confusing and therefore want to hear more about it. 

Hilde Christiaens is a Belgian psychologist who has made it her mission to provide the tools of non-monogamy for anyone who needs them for ethical practice.
