What's self-love got to do with sex? Everything!
/"A good sexual encounter is the balance between being selfish and self-less. You should be aware of what brings you pleasure and finding ways to have that; you have to give yourself permission to feel pleasure. As well, ensuring you are doing that for your partner."
It's Day 12 of the Women Learning to Love Summit, a free 21-day video summit for women to learn about all aspects of self-love. And that means that my video interview, about self-love, sex, and mindfulness, was just released! Here are the main topics we talked about:
