As a single gal in my early 30’s who makes no effort to find A Man, my family has a challenging time understanding why I choose not to date. Unfortunately, there have been times of occasional self-doubt: Is there some part of my brain turned off for sexual feelings between another person? Am I just not trying hard enough?

Absolutely not! I am not meant to lead a life that involves a Significant Other, and honestly? I cannot wait to see how this crazy adventure turns out. My asexuality isn’t a restriction of how I love, but a celebration of finding my true self and enjoying it, even if it’s unconventional.

Embodied sexuality is more than embracing your sex drive, having mind blowing orgasms, or being in a perpetual state of Seductress.

Did you know you can access, empowerment, liberation, self-worth, self-trust, enhanced intuition, clarity and levity…all by embracing yourself as a sexual being and exploring this part of you?

Sex toys aren’t one size fits all, but there is toy for everyone.

Human sexuality is something that’s forever evolving within us, so experimentation and exploration are paramount. What we may have liked at 25, might no longer do it for us by the time we’re 30. That’s why it’s important to create new toys so you can cater to people’s individual needs.

Harsh truth alert: we are the biggest barrier to our own pleasure. The quest for pleasure begins with self-exploration. If we don’t know what brings us pleasure, how can we share and teach others about our desires, wants, boundaries and needs?

Our best advice in the pleasure quest: DO YOU.

We unite, activate, and amplify voices of all races, ages, sexualities, and classes to encourage radical self-love and self-care through daily exploration practice of the vulnerable and shadowy sides of our own mental, physical, relationship, sexual and financial health. These five pillars are the framework of wellness that we strive to align with as individuals and as a global community of self-lovin’ humans.

In a chaotic world, everyone deserves to find peace in their body. Sadly, media has trained us to focus on what they’d define as imperfections and ignore the rest entirely. But while we’re fixated on what we’d like to change about our body, someone is admiring it’s uniqueness. We must not waste our beauty today on an uncertain tomorrow.

The way we care for, speak, and think about our bodies directly impacts both our physical and mental health. Wholeness comes from an aligned body and mind. We can’t step into our full potential if the two are at odds. So how do we quiet the negative self talk? We shift our focus to change our mind, not our body.

Our style is often the first thing that people notice about us, and how we make a first impression. When we move through the world empowered by our style, it shows we know ourselves and what we like, and exudes a vulnerable confidence that opens us up to moments of connection. Our unique style helps tell our story and express our beliefs. It’s how we say, Here I am. This is me. This is my story.

Self-expression is a beautiful opportunity to release our emotions through moments of creativity and play. The act of allowing ourselves the space to explore outward expression of our inner selves helps us better understand and process our emotions. When we aren’t actively expressing, we’re actively suppressing, which impacts our wellbeing.

Words matter. How we talk to ourselves is key to our mental health. When we speak highly of ourselves, we are empowered. But it takes practice to be our own hype team. This list of daily mindset mantras help shift our narrative and foster positive self-talk.

Humans need connection. When we are lacking in it our mental health is impacted. Being more empathetic and slower to blame, will create connections that lighten our mood and help us feel less alone.

It only takes a few minutes a day to invest in our mental health. Slow down, feel all your feelings, drink water, take naps and spend time with people who energize you.
