PAUSE, Pleasure & Peace: Decolonizing Celibacy is a sex-positive, pro-PAUSER guide to celibacy as a pathway to peace, power, and pleasure in a world that has tried to silence, shape, and shame our bodies. Written with bold intimacy and revolutionary clarity, PAUSE, Pleasure & Peace invites readers to reimagine celibacy not as deprivation, but as a conscious return to self. With a blend of reflective storytelling, memoir-like personal moments, cultural commentary, responses to real social media posts, and reflective questions, every page guides readers to ask deeper questions about desire, identity, autonomy, and healing. At its core, PAUSE, Pleasure & Peace is a deprogramming tool for the celibacy-curious, those ready to explore celibacy as a form of rest, resistance, and ritual, and people healing from burnout, over-sexualization, or relationship trauma, as well as marginalized folks seeking sovereignty. It is an invitation to untangle ourselves from colonialism, racism sexism, ableism, heteronormativity, monogamy-as-default, xenophobia, homophobia, religious shame, and purity culture.
