31. Reclaiming the Lost Art of Sensuality

After poet Andrea Gibson passed away this week, I realized that poetry and sensuality are deeply intertwined. Both require "masterful sensitivity" and the courage to feel everything, including pain. I believe most people don't realize they're poets, and by tuning into all nine of our senses (not just the basic five,) we can live more sensually and honor the brief, beautiful time we have in these bodies ⚠️Content Warning: Death/Mortality Discussion, Grief/Loss, Mental Health, Body Image Resources Mentioned: - Etymology of Sensuality
