Eros: Relationships & energy
The Language of Desire
Most of us can name what we want in broad strokes ("more confidence," "more chemistry"), but broad strokes are hard to act on. Take a want like that and get specific about what it would actually look, sound, and feel like in your body, then turn it into one present-tense statement you can recognize when it's happening. Once desire has a shape, you can move toward it instead of hoping for it.
Turn a broad want into one specific, recognizable statement.
Step 1
Name a broad want
Keep it simple. This is just your starting point.
Not sure where to start? Tap one to use it, then edit it into your own words.
Step 2
Get specific
If that want were showing up right now, what would you notice?
Step 3
Write it as one present-tense statement
Combine the feeling and the action into one sentence, something you'd instantly know was true if it happened.
Present tense, e.g. "I speak up when something excites me."
