内容概要

What'sy0ur pleasure? However you define it, pleasure is　vital to every woman's life--to your life  especially in　today's hard-driving, hard working society. Yet most　women have lost sight of their vital need for pleasure,　and feel guilty for taking even ten minutes for them-selves- they don't want to seem self-indulgent, or theycan't afford the time, or they're too busy taking care of　other people instead of themselves.   For your own sake  and ultimately for your loved　ones  it's high time you dropped the guilt and took　backy0ur pleasure. In It's My Pleasure, Maria Rodale,the dynamic leader of a powerful lifestyle corporation　who successfully revolutionized her own business, and Maya Rodale, her talented writer daughter, show you how to create a pleasure revolution in your own life--to stop hiding your pleasure and incorporate it fully into everything you do, no matter what your age, situation, or religious background. In the Rodales' exciting vision of every　woman's potential, pleasure is　not a simple, momentary experience to be segregated into a few minutes a day. It's endemic to women's bod- ies, minds, and experiences on Earth. And it's essential foryoztr health and success.
