* A note on figs:

In many traditions, figs are a symbol of sensuality, wisdom, and fertility. Nutritionally, they’re rich in iron, fiber, and minerals that support hormonal balance and circulation—key to rekindling desire and vitality.

↓ Soften

As you simmer the figs and aromatic spices, let your body downshift.

  • Diaphragmatic breathing – Inhale deep into your belly for 4 counts, exhale for 6. Repeat for 3 minutes.
  • Pelvic tilts – While seated or lying down, gently rock your pelvis forward and back, waking your root energy.
  • Head roll – Allow the weight of your head stretch your neck. Let you head hang towards your shoulder and slowly rotate it in a continuous circle.

↑ Pleasure

Sip and stretch into your own delicious slowness. Try…

  • Slip into something soft – maybe it's a whisper of silk lingerie or a buttery soft ensemble that glides over your nipples 
  • Close your eyes and press your palm into the top of your pubic bone. Let the pressure build and share the warmth of your hand
  • Put your feet up and flex your ankles back, forth and in circles. Feel your fascia release all the way up through your lower back.

☯︎ Why This Matters

Pleasure it's always about sex – the same way a rectangle isn't always a square.

When you remove the goal of performance, you can create micro moments where you return to your body. The more often you return, the more you feel at home, and the more your desire will return.
