Key Works and Philosophy of Seema Anand

Seema Anand’s work is centered on the idea that "the stories we tell define our identities." She argues that traditional narratives often treat a woman’s body as someone else’s property, and she seeks to change that through education.

The Arts of Seduction (2017): Her first major book is a guide to 21st-century intimacy based on ancient Indian wisdom. She critiques the modern focus on "instant gratification" and advocates for a return to the poetic, nuanced exploration of pleasure found in historical texts.

Speak Easy: A Field Guide to Love, Longing and Intimacy (2025): Her latest book addresses modern relationship complexities like situationships, polyamory, and digital dating, using real letters from her followers to provide non-judgmental guidance.

The "Power of No": A core part of her teaching is the importance of consent and the ability to say "No" without guilt. She describes owning one’s pleasure as a basic human right and a form of empowerment.
