May is Masturbation Month, and at Honey Play Box, we believe there’s no better time to celebrate pleasure, self-love, and empowerment.
To celebrate, we’ve created the Power in Pleasure: 31-Day Challenge. Think of it as an advent calendar but designed to help you reconnect with your body, discover new sensations, and prioritize your own wellness.
Whether you’re just starting to explore your body and pleasure or you're looking for something to get you to really reflect on your self love and empowerment journey, this challenge will invite you to slow down, listen to your desires, and really show up for yourself with intention.
Why a Pleasure Challenge?
Pleasure is often treated as a luxury, but it’s an essential part of holistic wellness. Regular mindful self-touch can:
-
Reduce stress and anxiety
-
Improve sleep
-
Boost body confidence
-
Deepen your understanding of your desires and boundaries
By exploring pleasure without judgment, you nurture not just your body, but your emotional and mental health too.
How the 31-Day Challenge Works
Each week, we focus on a new theme that builds on the last — starting with reconnecting to your body, then exploring new sensations, embracing fantasy, and ending with pure empowerment. You can follow each daily prompt in order or skip around depending on what feels right.
Here’s what your month of self-love could look like:
Week 1: Exploring Your Body — Awareness, Curiosity, Connection
This week, it’s all about being present and mindfulness. Listen to your body and pay attention to what feels good and how your body responds.
-
Name It to Claim It: Learn a new term for a part of your anatomy — knowledge builds empowerment.
-
Mirror Moment: Explore your body visually with curiosity, not criticism.
-
Breath & Touch: Try breathing slowly as you touch different parts of your body — notice what changes.
-
Fantasy Time: Write a fantasy without filtering yourself. Your desires are valid.
-
Pleasure Mapping: Map where light vs. firm touch feels the best.
-
Get Visual: Watch erotic content that genuinely excites you — pay attention to what lights you up.
-
Affirmation Day: Speak kindness: “I deserve to feel good in my body.”
Week 2: Discovering New Sensations, Experiment, and Enjoy!
Once you know what your body likes, it’s the perfect time to mix things up. This week is all about stepping out of routine and trying something new.
-
Tempo Time: Try using Tempo (or your go-to toy) with a focus on rhythmic G-spot tapping.
-
Change the Tempo: Fast, slow, pulsing — notice how rhythm changes sensation.
-
Cold vs. Warm: Experiment with temperature play — a warm washcloth or an ice cube can awaken different feelings.
-
Left-Hand Day: Use your non-dominant hand to create unfamiliar (and exciting) sensations.
-
Edge Yourself: Build pleasure and then pause before climax — it's like turning up the volume for your final crescendo.
-
Switch the Setting: Try self-pleasure in a new location like your shower or the couch.
-
Lube Love: Experiment with new lubricants — different types can completely change the experience.
Week 3: Embracing Mindfulness & Fantasy — The Power of the Mind
Pleasure isn’t just a physical experience you can also play around with your imagination! It plays a huge role in pleasure. This week, focus on what turns you on mentally and emotionally
-
Mindful Masturbation: Light candles, play music, breathe deeply, and focus on sensation.
-
Kink Curiosity: Research a kink or fantasy you’re curious about.
-
Sensory Play: Use textures, sounds, and scents to heighten every sense.
-
Erotic Story Hour: Read or write an erotic short story — your imagination is a playground.
-
Blindfold Adventure: Block your sight to awaken touch, hearing, and smell.
-
Mind-Body Connection: Notice muscle contractions and waves of tension and release.
-
Fantasy Focus: Lean into a new fantasy, guilt-free.

Week 4: Self-Care & Empowerment — Celebrate Your Growth
By now, you’ve built deep awareness and confidence. This last week is all about taking a moment to appreciate that and enjoy everything you’ve discovered along the way!
