The destination Lick Your Mirror is the fourth destination of I AWAKE’s Sensual Hero’s Journey. Its guided seven-day book, I Want to Be Touched, explores contact, sensation and the difference between receiving an experience and managing it.
The name is deliberately playful. The question underneath is intimate: can you feel what is happening, rather than only watch yourself having it?
You wanted the kiss. You spent it checking your response.
Did they feel wanted? Were you enthusiastic enough? Would asking for a slower pace make the moment awkward?
Their experience becomes clear to you. Your own keeps waiting.
This destination invites attention to this touch, this pressure, this pace. Wanting closeness in general doesn’t mean every form of contact feels right now.
Reading, writing, body maps and guided audio give I Want to Be Touched a way to explore these details privately. You don’t need a partner to notice your response to sensation, care or rest.
Receiving asks whether care actually reaches you. Consent gives your preference and your right to change your mind a place inside the contact.
