Keesling, author of Sexual Healing (Hunter House, 1990), returns with a second map for sexual explorers. Contrary to conventional sexual advice that suggests the need to please your partner at the expense of pleasing yourself, she asserts that acquiring the skills to focus on your own sensations and pleasures will lead you to becoming more sensitive to the needs and feelings of your partner. To this end, she guides the reader away from the Western understanding of the mind and body as "separate" and instructs readers in "sensate focusing" exercises. Unlike other self-help texts that target sexual dysfunction, Keesling's book is for people with relatively healthy sex lives who are interested in enhancing their sexual experiences. Recommended for public libraries.
