Ever feel like your body’s just a stranger you’re lugging around? Tiffany Chan gets it. In the thick of Masturbation May, the sexologist and intimacy educator dropped Touchpoints: A Sensual Somatic Journaling Guide, a seven-day ride to reconnect with your flesh and soul. This ain’t your typical self-help fluff—it’s raw, grounded, and unapologetically sensual.
A Reclamation, Not a Fix
Chan calls Touchpoints “a love letter, a reawakening.” It’s not about fixing you. It’s about coming home. Built as a companion to her viral Artistic Edge piece, Touch Thyself, Heal Thyself, this guide blends daily journaling with somatic practices—think intentional touch, sensory rituals, and no-BS reflection. It’s for anyone who’s felt disconnected from their body, wrestling with shame around desire, or just stuck on autopilot.
Who’s It For?
Trauma survivors? Folks numb from the daily grind? Or maybe you’re just curious about what your body’s trying to say. Touchpoints doesn’t care where you’re starting. Chan’s guide is a judgment-free zone, meeting you exactly where you are. All you need is a journal, a few minutes, and the guts to show up for yourself.
This is not a cleanse. Not a fix. Not a performance of self-care. This is a reclamation. A return.
– Tiffany Chan
What’s Inside?
Each day of Touchpoints serves up a core theme, a set of journaling prompts, and a sensory ritual to anchor you in your body. Day one might have you tracing your skin with intention, while day four could dive into untangling old shame. It’s structured but not rigid—Chan’s all about letting you move at your own pace. The rituals? They’re simple but potent, designed to spark self-awareness and pleasure without the pressure to perform.
- Daily themes to guide your focus.
- Journal prompts for raw, honest reflection.
- Sensory rituals to deepen embodiment.
Why It Hits Different
Unlike the endless stream of “self-care” guides clogging the internet, Touchpoints isn’t about slapping a Band-Aid on your soul. Chan, with her Ed.D. and years as an intimacy educator, knows the body holds stories—some painful, some electric. Her guide doesn’t shy away from the messy stuff. It leans in, inviting you to explore desire, heal old wounds, and rediscover pleasure on your terms. Plus, it’s tied to Masturbation May, a time when the adult world celebrates self-love in all its forms.
