Expanding Our Pleasure with Amanda Testa

Have you ever asked someone what they wanted or liked only to have them say “I don’t know”? Why is it that we either don’t know what we desire or are too afraid or embarrassed to say it out loud?

You’ll learn how sensual self-care practices can help regulate the nervous system and help you to feel more grounded, resilient, and energized.
