Underlying all sexual acts, is the need for touch, warmth, acceptance and love. Tactile stimulation is a need, from birth to death. Having had the pleasure of living and traveling in numerous countries, I realize we are touch phobic in North America. If a person has been sexually or physically abused, touching can trigger these memories. Touch me, touch me not With the touch phobic society and culture we live in, we all need and crave human touch.
Alienation directly affects our state of health mind, body and soul.
The emotional skin hunger increases as we get older. You can say a thousand words, express your feelings, by the way you touch another. I have been receiving massage for 15 years. I know it contributes to profound positive impact on my mental and physical health. Try to receive a minimum of one massage a month.
