Critics Review

The Pleasure Is All Yours is a powerful and timely invitation to unapologetically reclaim our joy by seeking the source of our happiness from deep within! Dr. Rachel Allyn deftly unpacks the complexities of pleasure, including how trauma and cultural conditioning often deny us this natural part of our self-expression to the detriment of our health and wellness. She provides practical, theoretical, and spiritual insights (as well as embodied practices) that challenge our perspective, ignites our imagination, and illuminates the sweet, sensual, and always deserving journey toward self-love. I highly recommend this beautiful and informative book for all seekers of joy.”—Seane Corn, author of Revolution of the Soul, co-founder of Off The Mat, Into The World

“This book is an essential roadmap for anyone needing to enhance their relationships and reconnect to their vitality. Incorporating both humor and the latest science, Dr. Allyn expands on mindfulness with bodyfulness: a crucial practice for our disembodied times. The Pleasure Is All Yours offers insightful and groundbreaking ways to transform and flourish from the body up. It inspires the reader on a path to thrive and reclaim healthy human pleasures so that we can harness our resilience and joy. I am so grateful to have this tool to offer my clients and students.”—Melody Moore, founder of Embody Love Movement Foundation

The Pleasure Is All Yours is a book that is desperately needed by our society right now. Dr. Rachel Allyn helps us to reclaim our connection to joy, intimacy and pleasure in an easy-to-read book that gives practical tools for everyone. When we grow up, we don’t learn about pleasure. This book helps reacquaint us with how to relate to ourselves and others in a meaningful way. Dr. Allyn takes a holistic approach by looking at the body, mind, and spirit. She teaches us with a variety of tools taken from Ayurvedic medicine and her own work as a psychologist and mind/body practitioner. I highly recommend this book because we all deserve more pleasure!”—Denise Wiesner, LAc, author of Conceiving with Love
