Sensual Gratitude Day #16: What makes you feel sexy and attractive?
#16. What makes you feel sexy and attractive? 'I think people are sexy when they have a sense of humor, when they are smart, when they have some sense of style, when they are kind, when they express their own opinions, when they are creative, when they have character.' - Suzanne Vega Why do we dress up when we go out or meet others for social situations? Is it to garner the attention of others? Or do we do it because it makes us feel good? Feeling sexy and attractive is a personal journey, one that requires permission, attention and validation. When you see yourself as beautiful, sexy or charming, others hold this vibration for you as well and reflect it in their eyes. From a certain color of lipstick to your favorite outfit, these additions accessorize how you truly...

#11. What attracts you to the same/opposite sex? “The power of a glance has been so much abused in love stories, that it has come to be disbelieved in. Few people dare now to say that two beings have fallen in love because they have looked at each other. Yet it is in this way that love begins, and in this way only.” Victor Hugo As sensual beings, we are often drawn to others that we find attractive, beautiful or beguiling. What attracts us to others is a mystery. Whether it’s their personality, kindness, physique or intellect, we find ourselves irrevocably brought into their sphere of existence. This is part of our inherent nature. The biggest lessons we learn about ourselves come from others. Some can be good or bad, but ultimately, the final destination is part of...

Read MoreMemories still come…
Memories still come of how your touch felt on my skin. Thoughts weave through my day as I am reminded of your scent. My eyes close as I hear a song that makes me think of you. A smile tugs on my face when I remember how you would whisper in my ear... That's how powerful memories are. They are preserved in a video clip of your mind that locks in a special time when you were wrapped around another. When that story runs its course, you are left only with experiences encapsulated in your cellular memory. There are those experiences you'd rather not remember, sequestering it in a vault that you guard tightly. There are others, though, that bubble to the surface, popping your reality with reminders of how it felt to be loved, seduced, touched, appreciated, even...
Read MoreDemystifying the taboo nature of erotica
Why is erotica considered taboo? Multidimensional in nature, this question poses to the heart of why we find this topic even alluring in the first place. Erotica is considered taboo because it is deemed as dark, naughty, overtly sexual is too graphic in describing sexual acts from deviant to standard exposes underground worlds of BDSM, seedy practices, and base instinctual practices corrupts the "good girl" with lewd, lascivious invitations to their "bad girl" nature does not encourage "proper" behavior according to society's standards is considered scandalous to read focuses too much on the woman's pleasure glorifies men and women's drive as sexual beings There are many possible answers but we find that the heart of why it is taboo lies in human beings ability to control themselves, respond to their urges and act responsibly. Granted there is a WIDE...
Read MoreYour Sacred Authentic Self
Thursday night, I launched the book, The Root: Discovering Power, on Kindle as an eBook. Hardly anyone knew about it, but I did share it with one of my best girlfriends. She wasn't about to let me get away with not celebrating this huge accomplishment. We found ourselves reasoning late into the night over a couple glasses of wine and talking about how to step into your sacred authentic self. She had cautioned me not to behave as a "love rebel" because I wasn't trying to fight against how I was parented or creating something that is otherwise seen as "taboo" in the world. I needed to step into my sacred authentic self and realize that this is what I was called to do. Do you know what that did to my psyche? Your sacred authentic self awaits you!...
