From Perfectionist To Pleasure Expert
It takes massive discipline to remind ourselves that pleasure is not bad and you won’t go to hell for taking good care of yourself. Pleasure is nourishment, it is good for you, your body, brain, nervous system and spirit. You are worthy of that goodness. You can have a $€x life, relationship, body love and a life that you truly desire... I pinky promise.
As you can imagine this work doesn’t happen overnight, but it is 1000% possible. It is my deep mission to help my clients get the $€x life, body love, confidence and relationships that they crave. This work is not for the faint of heart, it takes going through the mud and working the tools in your body, mind & spirit. I say this because my clients are badasses that are truly committed to getting what they want.
If you are craving to live a more desire, pleasure lead life; you have to clear any junk or charge you may hold around pleasure. Creating pleasure and joy in your life sounds fab, but we usually hold stories around why we can’t, shouldn’t or won’t have it.

To help shift your beliefs, I have written some reasons why pleasure is actually beneficial. When we believe this thing is good, we will walk towards it instead of running away from it.
