LOVING MORE® non-profit presents Poly Living 2008, bringing together the polyamory community and those who love more.
Loving More®, is excited to bring back Poly Living, February 1-3, 2008, Philadelphia, PA, with an incredible line up of speakers. The weekend conference, the largest of its kind, will feature keynote speaker and Author Dr Deborah Anapol. Deborah has been a leader in polyamory community and information. Her book The New Love Without Limits, is the most widely recognized and best selling book on polyamory around. The conference will also feature Dr Ken Haslam, major supporter of the Kinsey Institute, Robyn Trask, Loving More’s managing director, Polyamory and sex activist Anita Wagner and many others. They will cover a wide range of topics designed to improve relationships and sexual understanding. Poly Living features a balance of fun, education and personal growth workshops and entertainment. Saturday night will feature a viewing of Dr Mim Chapman V/P Dialogues, a fun and educational program on sexuality and sexual issues for both sexes.
"We are so honored to have Dr Anapol speaking this year for us. She was one of the founders of Loving More and has great insights on not only Poly Relationships but on relationships of all kinds," said Managing Director Robyn Trask. "This conference is designed to give people opportunities to learn about choices in intimate personal relationships as well as supporting those who choose to love outside the confines of monogamy all in an environment that is safe. We offer people a place to learn and grow in their own unique polyamorous relationships as well as the skills to help all their relationships work.”
”More and more people are looking to find other forms of relating with romantic partners as traditional marriage and relationships fall apart for many modern couples” explains Loving More’s Managing Director Robyn Trask. “What we offer is an opportunity to learn to love a new way with commitments, loving intimacy and real communication. With 50% of first marriages ending in divorce and 80% of second marriages following suit it is not surprising people are opening up themselves for something new and possibly more realistic.” This believes Robyn is in part responsible for the surge in interest in polyamory both from the media as well as public interest.
