For Him and Her

Everyday Enlightenment by Luke McLeod
RRP: $34.99
Mindfulness expert Luke McLeod has just launched his first book Everyday Enlightenment with Hachette. It is the ultimate book for someone who wants to have a mental reset and learn to manage stress.
Peace. Calm. Mindfulness. Enlightenment. These are appealing concepts, but they never seem like they’re within the grasp of the everyday person. With all our responsibilities in life, most of us are doing our best just to keep up, let alone have time to find that elusive ‘inner calm’.
Luke McLeod knows all about this. He’s an everyday person. He’s a son, a husband, and a friend, trying to find some balance in his everyday life just like everyone else. There is one thing, though, he knows for sure has improved his quality of life every single day…. Meditation.

Pillow Play by Sexologist Alice Child
RRP: $199
Introducing Pillow Play; a collection of fun (and educational!) sex & intimacy games and videos, designed to help couples learn new skills in the bedroom and spice up date nights.
The games have been curated and designed by Alice Child, a Somatic Sexologist and Sex Counsellor. The games cover a range of ‘spice ratings’, covering various topics and skills including sexual communication, erotic touch, initiating sex, increasing libido, communicating boundaries, dirty talk, and an introduction to new skills such as kink, tantra, erotic massage and sensation play.
There are 15 games in total – and they all come with printouts, how-to videos and demonstrations of the games in action, plus an additional 15 videos diving into the ‘theory behind the fun’ – for those wanting to get the sex education we all should have got at school!
Rather than spending money on a fancy dinner or physical gifts, Pillow Play is a great option for couples who want to invest in their relationship and intimacy this Valentine’s Day.
