A manual for living a meaningful pleasurable life

Really enjoyed this book, in it's audio version. It's like a field manual of how one can integrate more, better, qualitative, little, detailed, huge, sensuous, empowering version of everyday pleasures into our lives. This has the natural consequence of living a meaningful life where we feel good about and with ourselves. We are facing ourselves, our needs and wants, with self-compassion and kindness. We are accepting who we are, and what we desire to integrate into our lives to live a life WE consider beautiful. More than a permission slip, some of the "medicines" of this book since activated in my life are enhancing my impression of feeling healthy and prosperous, abundant and energized, whether it's during everyday mundane tasks or during liberating pleasurable moments. Highly encourage taking this healing pleasure journey with Julia !
