At first, some of our team retreated from it. Not really wanting to explore that. Others fixed their hair and put on makeup… maybe thinking they would do some research on a date night.

Then we understood… we tend to confuse Sensuality with Sexuality and after months of sitting around in sweat pants and maybe adding a little love to our handles… some of us may not feel especially sexy. But although sensuality can include sexuality, sensuality is so much more.

The definition of SENSUALITY is: Eliciting pleasure or delight via our senses

These experiences, which can be deliberate or spontaneous, remind us of what a true gift it is to be alive. Our bodies and our senses allow us so much information and pleasure.

Whether it’s sharing an incredible delicious meal with a friend,

smelling fresh cut grass,

kissing someone you love,

hearing the morning birds,

snuggling up with a cozy blanket,

seeing a sunset over the ocean or

hot fudge on a cool sundae these simple pleasures are the fabric of our lives…Our bodies and our senses afford us so much information and pleasure.

Yet, let’s go deeper… our feeling nature or emotional sense also creates moments of sensuality. Those gut feelings we experience and those undefinable attractions to people, places or things buoy us and allow expansion and an aliveness in our day. Sometimes we disregard or ignore our sixth sense, but when we tune into what are deepest sense is telling us we will gain true knowledge about ourselves and others.

Our sensuality helps define us, enrich us, enliven us, stimulate us. In every moment, we have the opportunity to increase our awareness of all the “sense” -ual wonders that surround us.
