I'm the author of two bestselling books, Come As You Are, and Burnout.

I've been a sex educator for over 25 years. That feeling of "Yes." I'm Emily Nagoski.

What if every choice you made about your sexuality was about following that feeling. Painting my nails and doing face masks, pampering myself. Honestly, just laying down with my boyfriend in bed, listening to music.Īt the beach, at the park, reading a book, just being in nature. And in that moment, you felt like the whole universe had your back. Maybe you were waiting in line somewhere and a song came on that just happened to be exactly the song that captured your current mood. Maybe you bit into a carrot, and it was like you had never tasted a carrot before, an astonishment of crunch and sweet and earth and rain. You woke up and then what? Maybe you took a shower and paused for a moment to savor the sensation of warm water on your shoulders. I want you to think about your day so far.
