Spiritual recovery from religious guilt and purity culture.
Profile Description: Struggling with sexual shame from religious upbringing? I'm Sister Sarah Grace, 35, a spiritual recovery guide and former youth pastor helping individuals heal from purity culture trauma, evangelical guilt, and religious sexual repression through embodied spirituality and sacred intimacy practices. Specializations: Religious Trauma Recovery: Deconstructing shame-based sexuality from evangelical, Catholic, or fundamentalist backgrounds Sacred Intimacy: Reframing physical touch as spiritual practice using contemplative tradition Confession & Absolution: Safe space to discuss "forbidden" desires without judgment Scriptural Reclamation: Reinterpreting biblical texts (Song of Solomon, etc.) through pleasure-positive, body-affirming theology My Philosophy: God designed the body for pleasure — not just procreation. Many carry deep shame from "purity culture" that damages adult relationships. Through guided spiritual direction combined with somatic healing (physical touch as sacred act), help you reconnect with your body as holy rather than sinful.
