Step1
SPEND TIME EXPLORING WHAT YOU LIKE SENSUALLY.
That relates to sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. What smells good to you and what doesn't? What looks good to you and what doesn't? What feels good against your skin and body and what doesn't? What tastes good and what doesn't? What sounds good and what doesn't?
Step2
GET TO KNOW YOUR PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES TO YOUR
SENSUAL EXPERIENCES.
Ask yourself as you begin your day or throughout your day "How am I feeling? This includes,emotionally, spiritually, physically and mentally?" Answer the question. Then process what sensory experiences led to what feeling.
Step3
ASK YOUR PARTNER HOW HE OR SHE FEELS.
Listen and learn.
Step4
BECOME AN EXPERT ON YOUR PARTNER'S NONVERBAL
COMMUNICATION.
Words are the clumsiest vehicle we have for communicating how we feel. Body language often speaks for itself. You can feel it in a room, tention or calm, despondence or hope, joy or sorrow.
Step5
PRACTICE SLOWING DOWN.
You can't be sensual if you're in a hurry. This is what "SMELL the ROSES" refers to. Meditate at least once a day for maybe 15 minutes or so. Take a look around you. Take a walk. Feel the breeze on your skin, smell the air, keep the mind still and just be in the present moment.
Step6
DEVELOP YOUR INTUITION.
You can then sense things more quickly and also tune in to your own needs, wants and desires more quickly.
Step7
INCREASE YOUR PARTICIPATION IN NATURE AND THE ARTS.
Whether it be painting, poetry, writing or the theatre, do this individually, and then plan outings with your partner such as picnics or walks in the park, even camping is a great way to appreciatte nature and peace of mind as you gaze at the stars at night and a sun kissed lake during the day. being still and quiet without chatter leaves for a calm and clear mind and life!
