6/9/202643 min
What if the key to more pleasure isn't doing more… it's slowing down? In this workshop, I walk you through a practice that can help you become more present in your body, reduce stress, deepen self-awareness, and discover what truly feels good to you. We talk about why mindfulness and pleasure go hand in hand, how to create a self-pleasure ritual focused on exploration rather than performance, and simple techniques to help you tune into sensation, quiet distractions, and build a stronger connection with your body. Whether you're looking to expand your pleasure, boost confidence, reduce anxiety, or simply learn more about yourself, this workshop offers practical tools you can start using today.

Remember, you guys, goal exploration, mindfulness, not orgasm. This is a heightened awareness in our bodies. It's a way to keep us present, and it's a way for us to feel more pleasure. Mindful masturbation is about slowing down and being present. The goal is exploration. The goal is not orgasm. It really is the greatest act of self-love to actually give ourselves pleasure. No one's perfect, and I just know that it takes a while to develop a new habit, especially when we're all wired, that we've all been masturbating, if we've been masturbating, in the exact same way our entire life. [upbeat music] Okay, so if you've been listening to this show for a while, you know I'm not about random sex toys or gimmicks. I'm about tools that actually support your pleasure, your communication, and your connection. Well, that's exactly why we created the Shop Sex With Emily store. Everything in there is curated by me and my team, and these are products I trust, I recommend to clients, and would tell my friends about. I do tell my friends about. It's what I talk about all the time. Whether you're exploring solo pleasure, looking to reconnect with a partner, or you really just want something body safe and beginner friendly, we've organized it so you don't feel overwhelmed. People love the Dame Pillow for supported sex, the Magic Wand Waterproof. Oh my God, it's so good. CRAVE Vesper, massage candles, JOWE flavored lube, We-Vibe Touch, uh, clitoral vibrators.
