Nourishing Your Body (And Your Desires) With Self-Love

Self love practices involve treating yourself as if you love yourself, which goes beyond the bubble baths and massages. 

Today, we’re discussing the intersection of self-love and nutrition. If you want to add more into your self-love routine, make sure to check out the rest of our blogs on radical self-love here!

For my personal self-love practices, I fundamentally believe that the practice extends far beyond self-care, and beyond the simple declaration of loving oneself. Self-love isn’t just about accepting your body as it is, and accepting your faults. It’s about worshiping your body, properly caring for it, and indulging it in the pleasures it deserves. In this essay, we aim shift your perspectives. We wish to arm you with the tools you need to give your body the proper fuel it needs. 

Whether your body is soft and curvy, toned and tight, or anything in between, it craves care that makes you feel alive and powerful. Your body deserves good nutrition, movement, and sensual indulgences.

Nourish Your Body Like You Feed Your Fantasies

Sipping iced coffee all day and skipping meals? Living off fast food and sugary sodas? Babe, not on our watch. 

Your body needs and requires general maintenance!

You wouldn’t fuel a luxury car with cheap gas, so why treat your body like an afterthought? Your body isn’t a machine that runs on caffeine and neglect. It’s a temple that deserves to be spoiled with delicious, satisfying nourishment and a piece of cake here and there.

Just like you wouldn’t deny yourself pleasure, don’t deny your body the nutrients it craves and needs to run properly. Take your vitamins, eat a bowl of fruit. Drink water like it’s the elixir of life. Eat meals that make you moan with satisfaction, but also include essential micronutrients.

Nutrition is far beyond the macros–your body needs essential vitamins and minerals to survive and thrive. 

Move Your Body Like It’s Built for Pleasure

Exercise isn’t just about fitting into a smaller size or chasing society’s beauty standards. It’s about strength and general maintenance. You know how you shouldn’t leave a car unused for an extended period of time? 

If you don’t use your body’s muscles, you’re far more apt to “lose” it. The more you care for yourself, the more your confidence radiates in and out of the bedroom. When you feel good, you look good, and when you look good, you command desire.

Whether it’s yoga that makes you stretch and sigh, a brisk walk that gets your blood pumping, or a steamy dance session that makes you sweat, move your body like it’s made for sin. Go as low impact as you need to–even if it’s as simple as some lazy girl workouts.

Self Love Practices – The Ultimate Aphrodisiac

When you treat your body with love, it rewards you tenfold. 

Your skin glows. Your energy skyrockets. Your confidence becomes irresistible. You start to see yourself the way lovers do: a daydream, a fantasy, a beautiful fucking masterpiece.

By prioritizing our physical health, we’re sending a powerful message to ourselves: that we’re worthy of love, care, and attention. So, let’s make a commitment to ourselves to focus on self-care and self-love. Our bodies will thank us, and so will our minds.

So, eat well. Your self-love practices deserve a little addendum! Hydrate like you’re preparing for a marathon of pleasure. Move in ways that make you feel powerful and desired. Because when you love your body–no matter the size–the world lusts after it too.
