Selfsexpression 1: Sensuality & Attraction

How do we become the lover we want to be? The Selfsexpression Programme presented in this book is a guide to help us achieve this goal.

Based on a theory of love development outlined in her previous book, The Love Path, the author offers a step-by-step approach to expanding our love consciousness. Love consciousness includes physical functioning, sexual expression, and the acquisition of various intelligences we can categorize as intellectual, emotional, social, and spiritual. Anyone, of any gender, sexual orientation, and level of experience can adapt the Selfsexpression Programme to meet their unique needs. Couples or groups may wish to undertake the programme together.

The book is divided into 52 love topics – one for every week of the year. Each topic begins with a brief explanation and concludes with three optional tasks. We can choose to: (RR) reflect and record; or (PP) undertake a practical project; or (SS) engage in a scintillating sexercises. The author believes we learn better when we are having fun.
