Day 4 - Heart-Opening Upper Body Massage with Eve (she/her)


Upper body massage is my most favorite practice to literally SELF-generate more LOVE and SELFLOVE simply through your own touch and really connect in a very gently slow paste to your chest/breasts and nipples.

The practice is a combination of taoist-inspired practices by Layla Martin, Diana Richardson and Ronja Sebastian, with my own spin on it after having consistently practiced for the last 5 years.

My personal experience was the one of a cis-woman having a lot of judgements around my breasts not being sensitive enough and being not “perky” enough, too big… I started out really hating my breasts and having no connection to them. This practice dramatically transformed my relationship to them into one of selflove and unlimited pleasure capacity. However mine was only one of many possible entry points into this somatic selflove experience that is available for everyone.

This practice is for everyone, also if you...
🌺Had a mastectomy for any reason, including cancer-related mastectomy;
🌸Have breast implants;
💐Have breasts and any judgements about them being too big, too small, shape, sensitivity etc.
🌻Are a human being that has a body :)

I ask for your understanding if you feel that I used the word “breasts” too much in the recording, and this is triggering for you. It is simply based on doing this practice myself for so many years and reflects my own personal way of relating to the practice. It is totally fine to replace the word with your own imagination of what works best for you right now, your physical or energetic breasts, your chest, or whatever word suits best for you in this very moment to connect deeper to your own body. Over the years I have taught this practice to all genders and this incredibly nourishing, gentle and heart-opening somatic discovery is a beautiful practice for all bodies.

Also, if you feel this is too challenging due to gender dysphoria or for any other reason, i invite you to give yourself full permission to either modify the practice in your own way, or skip it altogether.

For the practice:
Make sure to have body-friendly oil ready, like coconut or almond oil. Be careful with adding essential oils for this one, as our upper body skin is very sensitive.
