Natalie Christensen & Nathan M McTague

 

As founders of the Center for Emotional Education, we’ve spent the last 17 years supporting thousands of students and hundreds of one-to-one clients with our transformative concepts and unique NeuroEmotional Coaching modality.

We’ve also been cultivating and refining our signature system of trauma-informed and science-based support through our experience and relationships with our clients – watching, listening, and learning from what works.

What we’ve created through that collaboration, standing on the shoulders of the giants before us, and over the course of thousands of hours of development and innovation is an incomparable way of working with clients (of any age and in any venue) to invite optimal neural functioning, optimal healing, and optimal growth.

In The Snuggle Class, we’re bringing all that we’ve learned over all our years of work and personal experience applying that work to our lives, and all the years of research before that to bear in helping our people get more out of (and more into) their sensual lives. We’re bringing neuroemotional tools to the bedroom to both turn up the heat and turn up the connection.

We can’t wait to be with you for this pivotal and life-enhancing collaboration!!

Our Hero’s Journeys…

Click below to read about each of our long roads to get where we are now with intimacy.

  • I was a people-pleaser.

    I was so run by my primary Survival Mode (Appease) that it affected my identity dramatically. And I actually celebrated being the one who would do anything for anyone even if it was to my detriment.

    I even let myself be harmed, literally thinking to myself I was “helping” my perpetrator.

    As I grew up, I began to notice that I really only had awareness of what other people wanted. I could almost never tell what I actually wanted, preferred, or needed.

    I got into relationships ostensibly so that I could help my lovers, but really just to prove to myself I was lovable.

    And for decades I thought that I didn’t really like physical intimacy.

    “It’s so overrated!” I would say to myself, and, “If this is all there is to it, maybe I’m just not that sexual…”

    And I thought I was stuck with being that way.

    Things are so dramatically different, now. But let’s be honest, my shift didn’t happen overnight.

    I didn’t turn on a dime and change my programming in a week.

    Like most of us, lightning didn’t strike me.

    I had to go the long way. Taking years to learn each new thing and implement and grow from it.

    But I did it!

    I have now utterly reconstructed my programming around intimacy, and pleasure, and meeting my needs, and collaborating with others for mutual needs-meeting.

    I now LOVE sex.

    And, I also get to enjoy so much safety, connection, and touch (along with so much else) that sex is a delicious bonus, not a way to manage my survival or my feelings.

    So that’s why we created this course, and why we’re so passionate about supporting you, too; so that you don’t have to bumble around in the dark like we did for decades trying to figure all this out!

  • I now have a complete, well-rounded, and intimate relationship that I’m proud of, but it wasn’t always that way.

    The earliest messages I received about intimacy were confusing. From what I picked up it was intriguing and exciting, maybe kind of scary too, but certainly that sex was shameful.

    I got the mixed-message that to participate in sex was shameful. And to be afraid of sex, or disinterested in sex was also shameful.

    So I lived my entire adult life staying out of relationships where sex was expected OR, in relationship but participating in intimacy only enough to keep my partner happy.

    I didn’t know my body.

    I didn’t climax.

    I didn’t ask for anything.

    It wasn’t until deep into my partnership with Nathan, and fairly far into my adult life, that I blossomed.

    The increasing safety in our relationship meant that my body started to come back online and feel sensation. And processing my emotions around sex meant I was able to engage fully in my own sexual pleasure.

    Now I think of intimacy as a regular and healthy part of life. It’s something I actively seek and enjoy.

    Pleasure is an entire world once closed to me and now open.

    Now I have completely turned my relationship with sex around. I have the ability to revel in being utterly shameless, fearless, and powerful in my love life.

What It’s Like to Work With Us

““Before I came to the class, I stumbled and struggled to enjoy the more sensual parts of my life. I now know how to tend to the feelings that were getting in the way for me, and to dive in as the best version of myself.””
— Sue
“Training with Natalie and Nathan is unparalleled. I am so grateful.”
— Lauren
“I’ve often sensed the opposite sex operated from a different brain state when it came to approaching sex and now I know why!”
— Jeana
“Since the very first interaction, I could feel the warmth and heartfelt passion that both Nathan & Natalie put in every session they conduct. I couldn’t have asked for better mentors than them. Being a part of this community means untapped power and extraordinary support came my way. I’m always learning and growing with them.”
— Manu Shree
“What a Happy New Year I am having thanks to my work with you. I’m feeling closer to my husband, my kids, and my real purpose in life than ever before, and I’m sure it’s because of my work with you. ”
— Jessica
“As parents, we’ve come to Nathan and Natalie and the Center for Emotional Education for guidance on navigating how to consciously raise up our littles with empathy, but to focus on us, as a couple, was super amazing!
To have similar circumstances that we’ve all been through role played and addressed with care and love, made us see through different eyes how we can best handle these situations. And, to hear how the brain functions in everything we do, well, we now have a much clearer and more connected way of dealing with these things as they arise. And, a more connected couple, becomes more connected parents, becomes a more connected family.”
— Angela
“Natalie and Nathan guided us with tenderness and truth into the depths of the three brain states... I will carry this work with me for the rest of my life.”
— Rachel
