This study is a theoretical-philosophical reflection whose objective is to examine the conception of Eros - which involves desire, affection, and aesthetics in the practice of care for the body. This study consists of a synthesis of reflections derived from work that embrace subjectivity and the aesthetics of care. Correlations were made among the following categories: sensibility, aesthetics, relational, and transdisciplinarity. It is concluded that the aesthetic focus allied to ethics can be transforming, for it reverts to the sensitive and to the subjective in such a way that creates ruptures with outdated non-subjective models of care.
