Nearly 50% of Americans checked the "single" box in the 2010 census. Because we equate touch with sex, many of us suffer alone when we crave physical comfort and tenderness. Somebody Hold Me: The Single Person's Guide to Nurturing Human Touch takes a simple, radical approach to health and relationships by teaching you how to get more platonic touch. Somebody Hold Me walks you through the increasingly fraught physical space between humans, and allows for more connection and closeness through giving and receiving structured touch in your existing relationships. Designed for people in alternative communities (Burners, pagans, polyamorists, kinksters, asexuals, furries, ren festers, cosplayers) who have large circles of friends, Somebody Hold Me gives you a step-by-step guide to share touch with people you already know. Enjoy better health, feel happier, and deepen your friendships. Get off your phone, out of your head, and into your body with the simple practice of nurturing human touch.
Autorenporträt
Epiphany Jordan is a social artist whose mission is to reconfigure human relationships for a better world. For the past five years, she has witnessed firsthand the benefits of nurturing human touch with her business, Karuna Sessions. She has pondered why this aspect of our biology has been ignored in medicine, how lack of touch negatively affects our health and relationships, and what the world might look like if we deliberately shared consensual touch. Somebody Hold Me is the result of those ruminations. Epiphany has been a journalist, a legal assistant, an event planner, a professional tarot reader, a cigarette girl, and a gig economy serf. She found her home when she discovered Burning Man in 1994 while living in San Francisco, and experienced a feeling of belonging for the first time. In the ensuing 25 years, she has dipped into many alternative communities and movements. Epiphany also runs the Blue Star Temple, Karuna Sessions' sister business. She lives in a magic, art-filled cottage in East Austin, and thinks breakfast tacos are one of the finest culinary inventions in our universe.
