Kissing School: Seven Lessons on Love, Lips, and Life Force [Paperback]

Cherie Byrd (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 22, 2004

Enduring a terrible kiss can be more than just unpleasant. It can add tension to intimate moments, or worse, end a great romance before it even starts. After personally saving a relationship by teaching her partner how to kiss, Cherie Byrd transformed the experience into her successful Kissing School! program, in which hundreds of couples from around the world have since participated.

Kissing School distills the workshop's most useful teachings, and quickly ushers readers beyond quick pecks and “Can you feel my tongue?” action to enter a realm of soul-stirring, heart-lifting, body-shaking kissing. Seven in-depth lessons cover every aspect of technique and style without neglecting the spiritual and emotional aspects of the kissing experience. Homework assignments and other lively sidebars are included, as well as thoughtful pearls of wisdom from Byrd's Tantric and Taoist studies.

This woman is a god-send. Those of us who have participated in Cherie's workshops have ALL encouraged her to write the book on kissing. We were delighted to hear this book was coming out and want to tell the world about it. This is not your run of the mill course or book. Like the author, it's warm, alive, mature, well written and beautifully constructed. It can't replace taking the workshop, but the essence, poise, instruction and FUN is there if you are really looking to rekindle or keep alive your romantic relationship. Absolutely a must read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great info for the Great Lover in all of us, November 9, 2005

This review is from: Kissing School: Seven Lessons on Love, Lips, and Life Force (Paperback)

There's a lot of information we never get on how to enhance the quality of our relationships with our beloved. The entire content of this book fits into that category. I read this the first time as single person at the suggestion of a friend, wondering what I could possibly get out of it. I was exceptionally surprised! The exploration of our "inner lover" and the breathing exercises are designed to help us integrate the loving aspects of ourselves, bringing that incredible energy into our daily life whether we are alone, preparing for our great love or have been in relationship for years.
Being in relationship now, I find these practical steps to bring an excitingly enhanced physical, emotional and spiritual experience to our connection with each other. In reading, I found I was invited repeatedly to explore my innermost self to find how deep my love actually went, only to find it was unlimited - and I could share this all with my partner.
Don't let the title of the book fool you. While these exercises may take your kissing to a whole new level, your experience of what is shared between your hearts and souls in these tender moments can quickly become the highlight of your days together, even if it's the single moment of kissing each other goodbye in the morning. I would recommend this book to any person wanting to find and know that deeper love!!

The book is boring, its ideas have nothing to do with kissing techniques, excercises are silly.

Not worth the money nor the bother!
