From the publisher:

Everyone knows sex in a long-term relationship can get stale sometimes. But isn't the same true for masturbation? Just like a familiar sexual relationship, where you fall into a pattern using the same moves and positions, masturbation can become routine and, frankly, boring. Just because you're only getting yourself off doesn't mean you don't deserve an exciting, satisfying experience.

Sex Yourself teaches women how to reach orgasm and how to have better orgasms by themselves. Learn how the amazing experiences you have alone can be re-created with a partner, helping to enhance your sexual relationships. Try new techniques and accessories to have mind-blowing orgasms in brand new ways.

Sex educator Carlyle Jansen provides a modern look at masturbation, self-love, and orgasm that features fun and informative full-color illustrations throughout.

"Sex isn't defined by two people of opposite genders in the missionary position; it's defined by YOU. Sex Yourself reminds us that mutual masturbation and self-love are gratifying experiences. Keep this book on your nightstand, light some candles, dress up, and have a date for one tonight. You deserve it." –Amie Harwick, M.A., author of The New Sex Bible for Women

From the publisher:

Everything you need to understand women's orgasms—what works, what doesn't and why:

• How to ask for what you need and want
• Multiple orgasms, extended orgasms and energetic orgasms
• The "elusive" orgasm and why some women have difficulty climaxing
• How often we fake them and why
• How personal history shapes sexual experience
• Orgasm as an emotional release
• Masturbation
• The power of fantasy
• Penetration, the G-spot and ejaculation
• Defining the erotic
• The joy of sex toys

There are tons of books filled with advice about orgasms, but many women find their relentless cheerleading lacks an honest discussion of their real needs. Mikaya Heart changes all that. The Ultimate Guide to Orgasm for Women is a forthright and comprehensive exploration of female sexuality. Normalizing all women's experiences, Mikaya Heart provides the information, permission and support women need to enhance their own fulfillment.
