Wise words from Joan Heartfeld, sensual Maui tantrika: she advised us that every time we rub ourselves with oils and lotions, that we also thank our bodies and be present, really enjoying the process of luxurious self-care. “Thank you legs, for holding me up, thank you thighs for being so sexy and grabbable, thank you belly for being like the Buddha.” You get the point. It makes the process doubly luscious.

Thanks so much David! It’s true that taking care of myself has increased my self-worth over the years. And as a result, I’m kinder and gentler – whether I’m dealing with traffic or a child or the supermarket check-out person.

I have to recommend a brisk rub with body oil prior to shaving (being a guy, I’m talking about my face here). It’s something I’ve recently discovered. Makes the razor g-l-i-d-e. That’s my way of pampering myself in the mornings.

This is good Kim. I mean not just the product, but your concept. When you’re so used to always taking care of others, you can lose touch with what you need and want. And you can’t help others do well unless you’re doing well. So, well put.

I looooove oils over lotion and sprays. Can’t wait to try this. Thanks Kim. How do you all find little ways to pamper yourself?
