CUDDLE CONFIDANTE

Spooning, sitting snuggle, cozy turtle, legs entwined or the happy headlock-you would not ever think about the nomenclature for cuddling positions, especially when entangled in one. But for Mumbai-based Aili Seghetti, founder of The Intimacy Curator-a one-stop shop for dating, intimacy and relationship coaching services-cuddling is not that simple. Hence, Aili informs THE WEEK about the several kinds of cuddling positions she often discusses with her clients when she doubles as a professional cuddler. "Before the session starts, we ask our clients what is it that you would like to do," she says. "What are the body parts where you wouldn't want to be touched? What kind of environment do you want? What kind of music and light? What kind of cuddling position are you familiar with? What are the ones that you would like to try? Because there are multiple, right?"
