Overcome guilt, shame, and negative body image easier than ever before. Numerous Bodys*x facilitators will be presenting! June 4-5!
On a personal note, life has been busy, busy, busy with the last weeks of school. I look forward to connecting more very soon!

Today I had a couple of my friends over for my very first time hosting an “erotic recess!”

We shared a little about what our relationship is like with asking for what we need….

We shared in self pleasure as we were guided by Carlin Ross’s audio recording of how to do the rock and roll technique…

And we shared some time where our s*xual energy was not about performing for someone else or even in a romantic context. The energy was directed inwards, toward loving ourselves just as we are, but it was also shared in a sisterhood.

Do you think there’s anything in life that physically feels better than an or**sm? Discuss… 🤔

May is National Ma********on Month! Are you doing YOUR part? ;)

hurry past it.” - Soren Kierkegaard

💓 Comment with one thing below that brings you pleasure. Doesn't have to be related to s*x! I'll name a few of mine: honeysuckle, the scent of my partner's underarms, nuzzling my partner's beard, walking barefoot in the grass, laughing with abandon

Just one time today, slow down. Take in something that gives you pleasure. Enjoy it just that little bit more than you usually allow yourself time to savor for the sake of savoring. You deserve it. 🍑

What happens in a Body$ex workshop and why are they done in the n**e? I lay it all out here.

Why are Bodys*x Workshops held in the N**e? Asheville and online Bodys*x circles are done in the n**e. Why?

Sneak peek! There is a virtual summit coming up this summer and owning our pleasure is the theme. 🔥

Yesterday I was working on the setup for my workshop on "The $exless Marriage and Anor**smia in Partner $ex." I even had a feline visitor to my set. 😀 Stay tuned for more!

I love this Glamour interview with Carlin Ross all about sharing her v***a & on Netflix!

Carlin Ross Taught Gwyneth Paltrow How to Or**sm. She Has Some Tips for You The revolutionary s*x educator shares her favorite tips to seize control of your own pleasure—and her real opinion on Gwyneth Paltrow.

Today I had the honor of holding the space for a woman while she practiced the rock n' roll technique of .

In this role, I am a guide and a witness, and I take notes so you can be in your body and not worry about the details. We learn, every time, however things unfold, that you, indeed, are "normal." (I can tell you how and why.)

In this space, we are creating new positive s3xual experiences outside of a romantic context, where you can shift your mindset from being given your to taking your .

This is a powerful, vulnerable experience. It'll open the door to incredible possibility for the future.

DM me with your email address to sign up for my free monthly email newsletter. Lots of juicy stuff and informative content. Juice+learning=😍

I’m working on a talk I’ll be giving this June on The S3xless Marriage and Anor**smia in Partner S3x. This will be part of a virtual pleasure summit!

I have lots of insight into this one. What are your questions about this topic? DM me. I respect your privacy. ❤️

I often share the work of Emily Nagoski (maybe most known as the author of Come As You Are, and more recently on The Principles of Pleasure on Netflix.) She is one of my very favorite s*xperts and educators.

I was excited to read last week that she has a new podcast coming this Fall and she wants to answer our questions about s*x and s*xuality! Any questions related to these topics are fair game. I'll put Emily's instructions on calling in in the comments of this post.

Very good stuff!!!

Some Reality About Consent and Consent Education Some Reality About Consent and Consent Education

This piece has helped me look at my own bias! I will certainly keep my takeaways from this one in my parenting back pocket.

My Son Asked Me How Two Men Have S*x. My Reaction Surprised Me. "The next day, I was still thinking about our conversation and sitting with the vague feeling that I hadn’t handled it correctly."

It's easy to say, "everything's great!" and "I love our s*x life!" if you are asked about what s*x is like with your husband or partner. After all, we aren't taught as women in particular that it's okay to talk about s*x, much less our s*xual satisfaction, with others.

***

I was reminded last weekend of how easy this is as women for us to do. A group of girlfriends and I got into some really amazing conversations about s*x over a weekend of travel. One dear friend said, "I love s*x!" when I asked her how she felt about it as she listened to one of our conversations.

**

Later, however, she shared with us that she has almost no libido right now.

**

We can talk to each other about s*x. We can be here for each other. We can explore questions together like -- ***what is s*x that is worth wanting?*** What are my desires? What might be one small thing that I could shift in my life tomorrow that might make s*x more pleasurable for me?

***

For this friend, it was the idea that she may want to look into a change of one of her medications. For others, the answers will be different. Then there will be more to explore. Isn't there always more for us all to explore? It's a journey for us all.

**

I encourage you to reflect for a few moments today on what pleasure and s*x are like for you in your life right now. How do you feel about s*x? What is your s*x life like? Who can you go to to talk about these things--who are your allies? We can be here for each other in a way that women weren't taught they could be in the past. Can we try to create a new narrative together?

I have learned that sensuality is often an important part of my personal self-care practice.

Here are some things that I’ve added to my bedroom that make me feel in the mood for solo or partner love:

❤️ Twinkly lights
❤️ Plants
❤️ Candles, real or the flickering faux
❤️ Drapey fabric
❤️ Textured fabrics
❤️ Music that gets me in the mood
❤️ Crystals, stones, and other natural items

Many of these items I got from around my house; they were things I already had and didn’t all cost me money.

When I take time for myself to create a sensual environment in which I feel supported. What gets YOU in the mood? It may not be (and likely isn’t) the things that get ME in the mood, but I encourage you to take some time to think about what does.

You are worth the time. You deserve pleasure.

I bled when I first had interc0urse. Did you? Ever wondered why? Hint: it's not likely the h***n.

This is my story of how "that one" Goop Lab episode changed my life here in Asheville. Do you know the one?

How that One “Goop Lab” Episode Changed My Life You know the one. Wait, you don’t? Here. You’re welcome. I don’t want to share too much, because I really want you to go watch the episode for yourself. But I can say, there will …

I’m playing with my new Later (social media scheduling) account, looking at sensual images and wondering whether I should focus next on writing a blog, some er@tic lit, or creating a sensual newsletter to come out via email once a week. What would you like to see next?

Sometimes navigating our own pleasure can feel like a maze. Yet if we can relax into the journey and not feel the pressure of reaching a final goal or climax, the maze itself can become most of the fun, not just reaching the exit door.

“The difficult part of confidence, the letting go of all the untrue things, is a major skill to help you get to joy. All the many untrue things you were taught provided a kind of “measuring stick” against which you have measured your own s*xuality to see if you’re doing it “right.” And if you believe these things are true but you don’t match it, then you believe there’s something wrong with you and how can you love your s*xuality if it seems like there’s something wrong with you?”

Is It S*xual Dysfunction or As*xuality? Spoiler: Either way, you're not broken.

Pleasure can be cultivated. I know, because my own ma********on practice was once one of my greatest struggles. Now, carving out time for myself and my or**sm is a priority for me. These minutes and hours with myself are now juicy, delicious, guilt-free, and fun.

Ma********on is my foundation for pleasure in partner s*x, in my mental health, and in my self love. Learning what makes me feel good and what makes me or**sm are skills I can and do take back to my partner. These are my three favorite go-to's for my s*x for one: my cordless Magic Wand, my Njoy pure wand, and almond oil.

I hope today you can carve out some guilt-free time for one, even if it's just to touch and speak to yourself tenderly.

I had a lot of fun writing this one! This is my tongue-in-cheek but informative review of what I consider the three best s*x shops in Asheville, VaVaVooom, Boutique Royale: Lingerie & Gifts, and BedTyme Stories. Happy shopping! 🛍

Our v***as don’t look like our Barbie dolls’ did, and that’s normal! 🌹

How often have you looked at your v***a…really looked? Have you seen other v***as, not on performers, to see the wide variety and the beauty?

Most of us internalized some degree of shame around how we look—is this part too big, that part too long, is this hair gross? No, no, and no. *x *x

"For years I thought what I was doing what shameful and wrong, and I wanted to hide it, yet I couldn't and didn't want to stop."

Welcoming my goddess statue from Janet Gwen Designs into my home today. This beauty is Hera. ☀️

The goddess I resonate most with is Vesta/Hestia. Another day I would love to talk about why! Which goddess tugs at your heartstrings?
