Embarking on your sensual yoga journey can be a deeply enriching and expansive experience. There are lots of essentials you can use during your practice but for my sensual yoga classes I like to keep things simple. I also believe it’s important to create a space that nurtures your practice and allows you to feel supported as you explore the intimate connection between your body and mind. Let’s delve into the essentials you’ll need for your sensual yoga journey.

For your convenience, I’ve linked the essentials I own and that are an integral part of my practice each time I roll out my mat.

Essentials to Support Your Sensual Yoga Practice

  1. Yoga Mat: A good quality yoga mat provides a comfortable foundation for your practice. Look for one that offers adequate support and grip to ensure safety during your movements.
  2. Bolster Pillow: Bolster pillows are a must-have for sensual yoga. They provide support during poses, allowing you to relax and deepen into stretches, enhancing the sensuality of the practice. A bolster pillow is especially great for those who have knee issues, tight hips or tight ankles making your practice a gentle and supportive one.
  3. Blankets: Soft, supportive blankets can be used as props for various poses. They offer comfort and can be draped over your body to enhance the sensuality of the experience.
  4. Candles: Soft, ambient lighting can set the mood for your sensual yoga practice. Choose unscented candles to create a serene atmosphere.
  5. Sensuous Attire: Select comfortable, form-fitting attire that allows for ease of movement and that makes you feel good. Feel free to express your femininity through your choice of clothing.
  6. Eye Mask or Blindfold: Introducing the element of touch and sensation can deepen the experience. A soft eye mask or blindfold can help you focus on your body’s sensations, movements and breath work.
  7. Essential Oils: Select oils with soft, inviting scents that promote relaxation. Lightly apply them to pulse points or to a diffuse to enhance your sensory experience.
  8. Journal: Keep a journal nearby to reflect on your sensual yoga journey. Write down your experiences, thoughts, and feelings as you explore movement.

As you begin your sensual yoga journey, remember that it’s a deeply personal and introspective practice. The essentials listed above will help you create a nurturing and sensual space where you can explore your femininity, somatic awareness, and the intimate connection between your body and mind. Enjoy the journey as you discover the beauty of sensual yoga in your life.

I knew that Veronica was the photographer for me when I took a scroll through her website and I could actually FEEL the energy from all the images and I knew that she meant every word written on it.  And on my session day, everything that I thought had been confirmed.  I'll be 50 this year and after having 6 children, it was time to celebrate this body and embrace all the sensuality it offers. Thank you for helping me fall in love with myself all over again.

I had so much fun during my shoot and intially I had booked a shoot to surprise my husband-to-be but I felt like such a bad ass during that shoot, I left feeling sexier than ever and when I saw my photos, my jaw dropped. I could NOT even take myself seriously (in the best way). I can't stop looking at my photos! Thank you, Veronica!

This was my second shoot but the first in her new studio. Veronica has done it again! I got to work with her on my birthday this time around and had another great experience. I felt so comfortable with her and completely trusted her vision. I love the new space (especially the exposed brick) and can’t wait for the next one!

Veronica has done it again!

This is something I have always wanted to do but never got around to it. I'm 52 now. I wanted to celebrate where I am in my life. I have been single for the last 5 years and for this first time, I have become truly comfortable with my body and all of my curves. I decided this is the perfect time in my life for this photo shoot.

I had a session with Veronica before and this time, it was a surprise booked by my husband for my 39th birthday. I'd been telling him for MONTHS I wanted to do a shoot before I hit the BIG FORTY because I was feeling anxious about it. Veronica and her team made me feel super sexy and confident. The day the pictures were delivered, you couldn't tell me NOTHING! This was such a powerful and moving experience and I can't wait to do it again and again!"

This was such a powerful and moving experience. I can't wait to do it again and again!

Lindsey

I had the best time during my shoot and I felt sexy and daring when I left. I was feeling a little down leading up to my shoot wondering if I could pull this off and not be awkward. I thought about cancelling a few times because my anxiety was getting the best of me. After talking with you about it, you calmed my fears and I'm so glad for your talking me off the ledge. Your guidance through the shoot made all the difference in the world and my album is so stunning! I still can't believe it's me. Thank you, Veronica!
