This month, as Cal Exotics Sexperts, we were sent another great new product to review.   Each product will be rated, by our testers (a couple), using The Love Bird’s Feathers Rating Scale™:

 

1  Our Feather Rating = ”not so hot”  to

5  Our Feather RatingOur Feather RatingOur Feather RatingOur Feather RatingOur Feather Rating = “extremely hot”  

 

“The hotter the product is, the more feathers it will take to cool you off!” 

 

Calla LilyThe new product we received is called Calla Lily™. At first glance, this toy reminded us of The White Stork we received months ago.  It has a very similar look.  On the package, it states, “Experience love of serenity and pureness with this beautiful Calla Lily that brings incredible pleasure and inspires health and happiness.” 

 

This is a waterproof vibrator with a clitoral stimulator with an “intensely powerful” micro-bullet (stated for “amazing G-Spot arousal”).  When we first saw this vibrator, we knew it would have some power.  It has 8 speeds of both shaft rotation (yes, the shaft rotates!) and clitoral vibration, each having 3 functions (vibration, pulsation, and escalation).  This vibrator also has a “sensuous soft shape” and a “full contact stimulating petal” for clitoral stimulation. 

 

The Calla Lily is made of “hygienically superior unscented TPR material” and requires 3 AA batteries.  The shaft measures 5.5 inches and weighs 9.60 oz.   It has LED lights and an automatic on/off button.  It’s recommended that you use a water-based lubricant with this vibrator. 

 

So, what did our testers say?  Overall, they said they really enjoyed the Calla Lily and gave it  Our Feather RatingOur Feather RatingOur Feather RatingOur Feather Rating.   You will need all 4 feathers to help cool you off!

Has this ever happened to you?  You wake up in the morning and think to yourself, “This is not going to be a good day”.  Then, throughout the day, you see tons of reasons why you should have never left your bed in the first place!   If so, it’s because of a phenomenon called confirmation bias (a term that’s discussed in many Psychology classes).  It means we have the tendency to look for evidence to confirm our beliefs about things, instead of looking for contrary evidence to test our beliefs.

 

Using the example above, we woke up with the belief that the day would not be good and noticed all the evidence that confirmed our belief about the day.   There may have been several situations that have disconfirmed our belief, but we simply overlook or ignore them.  This bias can impact many areas of our life including our relationships.  Just think about it.  For instance, if you believe your partner is lazy and uncaring, then you will have the tendency to notice and focus only on the situations that prove your belief (“See, he/she is really lazy and uncaring!”).  You do this instead of checking to see if your belief is false.  So, based on this concept, here’s our relationship challenge for the month: 

 

  1. First, become aware of any negative beliefs you have about your partner.
  2. Then, challenge yourself (really challenge yourself!) to look for evidence or proof that disproves or contradicts your negative beliefs. This helps you test your beliefs about your partner. 
  3. Finally, when you find proof that disproves your beliefs, let them know you noticed the good stuff they are doing!  Acknowledge and thank them.
  4. If you have difficulty with this challenge or feel your negative beliefs about your partner are true and you need help, please feel free to contact us.

 

Wishing you more connection and passion!  Please feel free to contact us with topics you would like us to address.

 

Many blessings!
