Awaken Sensation: Healing Touch for Connection
There’s something deeply restorative about the warmth of a hug, the comfort of holding hands, or the soothing rhythm of a gentle massage. Science shows outside of just feeling food, it supports emotional balance, lowers stress, deepens connection, and even improves sleep.
Moments of physical connection stimulate serotonin, a key neurotransmitter for mood, calm, and emotional stability. They also help reduce cortisol, our primary stress hormone, creating space for more peace and presence. Touch fosters trust, strengthens bonds, and signals safety to our nervous system, helping us feel more grounded and connected.
Anoint Nourishing Body Oil is a ritual that cares for your skin while inviting you to slow down and tune into what’s happening in your mind and body in the present moment. It creates space for love where it’s most needed: moments when you might notice negative self-talk and choose instead to replace it with gratitude. Infused with glow-enhancing botanicals like schisandra chinensis, its subtle scent and silky texture transform each application into a mindful, sensory ritual.
Ways to bring this into your day:
- Self-massage after bathing to nourish skin and release tension
- Partner massage to deepen intimacy and foster closeness
- Evening ritual to relax the mind, prepare the body for rest, and encourage better sleep
Whether shared with a partner or savored alone, touch has the power to uplift, heal, and reconnect you to your sensual self.
