Turned On

A radically honest guide to unleashing desire as a source of vitality and the antidote to anxiety.

Not sure what you really want? Do you feel conflicted by your desires? Are you slamming up against the wall of mid-life demands, stress, and monotony? It's time to get Turned On!

Turned On offers a three-step process of unburying your desires, befriending your desires, and then letting your desires light you up. Meditation teacher and mindfulness coach Yael Shy helps you locate your deepest longings in all areas of your life and let them awaken you to the excitement you have been missing, without blowing up your life in the process. Within this framework you will learn how to:

• Recover the desires you buried in the name of being “good,” likeable, or responsible.
• Discern the difference between “consolation prize desires” and what you really want.
• Reclaim your aliveness and erotic energy from the inside out.
• Let desire become a daily practice that lets you shine with the unshakable sexiness, confidence, and power that is your birthright

Rather than suggest we chase our urges, destroying our relationships in the process, or advocating for repressing or transcending them, leading to depression and anxiety, Turned On walks readers through the process of becoming intimate with our deepest desires, allowing them to energize and electrify our lives. It reshapes the journey from anxiety, people pleasing, and envy into a reclamation of what we most want, and who we long to be. This is the practical, repeatable, everyday approach that turns cultural conversation into an actual transformation.
