Why Sensuality?

Why not sexuality? Because sexuality is only one piece of the puzzle.

In our bodies, we have different sources of energy - one of them is sexual energy. We’ve been taught that sexual energy is used for sex - for procreation and sexual relations. However, it’s actually responsible for so much more including passion, love, creativity, self-expression, connection to others and even connection to spirit.

When we reduce sexual energy to sex, we lose a lot of its magic. That’s where sensuality comes in.

Sensuality is a tool we use to connect with that sexual energy; which we believe is so important for a pleasure-filled life.

Want better relationships filled with more love and safety? Practice sensuality. Want to understand your desires, and be able to communicate them? Practice sensuality. Want to feel more creative and driven in your work and personal goals? ... You get the idea.

Sensuality is a practice - just like yoga or meditation. Learn more here.
