Loving your body

My tools for keeping my sexy alive and happy

September 10, 2015

emailTwitterFacebookLinkedinGorgeous. How is your sexy doing these days? Is she alive and buzzing? Vibrant and ever-expanding? Happily bouncing along with every step you take? Or is she numb? Asleep? Does she feel like a relic from another age? When you were young/single/happy/loved/confident/less busy….? If so, you are not alone. I believe that our sexy is like an orchid. She needs very particular conditions to flourish. …

I know you think this is impossible

July 23, 2015

emailTwitterFacebookLinkedinThere is one thing that most women have in common. We hate something about our bodies. In fact, it seems like it’s something that just HAS TO BE. There is no other option. If you are a woman, you hate something about your body. Or everything. Or you wish just one thing was different. Even women with “perfect” bodies hate something. Or everything. Or wish that …

This is what I saw in her eyes

June 25, 2015

emailTwitterFacebookLinkedinThe other day, a gorgeously sunny day, I was out and about when I saw a beautiful young woman with amazing legs. I am a leg girl. I mean, I always wanted fabulous legs. I covet legs. Shapely calves. Lean hamstrings. Legs that break hearts in high heels and are born for Daisy Duke’s and miniskirts. And this woman had a great set of them. …

How I started to get my mojo back – Part 1

January 22, 2015

emailTwitterFacebookLinkedinLast week, I said that I was going to share my thoughts on how to feel like a sexual and sensual woman. Even when you don’t have partner. Even when you are pissed off and tired. Even when you are not having sex. Even when you think you will never feel full of desire again. Even when you feel totally disconnected from your own skin. …

Meet your most fearless, confident and pure self

December 17, 2014

emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin“She does what she wants and never anything to impress or please. She dances in the shadows when she wants and on centre stage when she wants. Her body is made for pleasure and she curves and rolls and reaches and mesmerizes. She is ice cold and fire hot. She is untouchable. Untameable. Unknowable.” These are some of the notes I made at the S-Factor retreat in January …

My thoughts on beauty…

December 3, 2014

emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin  Now that I have a daughter, I have been examining my opinion of the word “beautiful” and what beauty is. Or should be. Little girls hear a lot about being beautiful. They are told they look so pretty in their dress. That they are beautiful. Adorable. Cute. Smile for the camera! There is something in all of that that makes me feel uncomfortable. Whether …

What I hear A LOT from women…

October 29, 2014

emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin Here’s what I hear a lot from women when I send out an email about a workshop I’m having. You know, one of those sexy workshops. “Sophie, I would love to some day but I’m just not ready yet.” “I’m trying to lose some weight and when I do, I’ll totally come.” “I don’t have anyone in my life right now.” “I’m just too tired. I don’t …

“…and I love myself!”

July 4, 2014

emailTwitterFacebookLinkedinThe other day, my three-year old daughter was telling me who she loved. The usual; mummy, daddy, baby brother and then she said “…and I love myself.” Wow. How did she know that? Where did she get that from? We’ve never talked about how she should love herself or the power of positive messages. She said it naturally and without any sense of it being different …

“Feeling” vs “being”…

June 26, 2014

emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin“You have no need to travel anywhere. Journey within yourself, enter a mine of rubies and bathe in the splendour of your own light.” Rumi There is a difference between being and feeling. This took me some time to understand. And I still need to constantly remind myself to aim for feeling, not being. Being is easy if your description of what you want to “be” …
